Cute Enough to Eat

This is what my kitchen looked like on Thursday night.



This was the prime suspect.



But not the culprit.  The culprit is actually shown in the first photo.

The mess was a result of the immersion blender versus an ice cube, not the pan de guagua (pronounced wa-wa, which is Quechua and means child).  Actually, I think it's a guagua de pan.  That makes more sense since it means that it is a child made from bread, not bread made from children.  I need to remember that - guagua de pan.

This type of bread is starting to show up in the bakeries.  It is typical eaten here on and just before All Souls Day (aka, Dia de Muertos, Day of the Dead) on November 2nd.

This specific specimen was consumed for its suspected involvement in the creation on the mess shown above, though it would not have survived much longer even if it was not suspected.
