This is the excellent stuff I brought back from San Antonio. My host rosenbeans and I love lotería -- her lucky lotería card is La Chalupa (the boat) and mine is El Nopal (the cactus). We were on a mission to find this new set designed by San Antonio artist Cristina Sosa Noriega. We drove to an H-E-B Plus superstore way on the other side of town to score these. While we were there, I got the Virgin of Guadalupe candle. You can read the story about bringing the candle back to Massachusetts here . The milagros and talavera tiles came from a very nice vendor at Bussey's Flea Market .

This archway, decorated with Talavera tiles from Mexico, was moved to the courtyard of the San Antonio Museum of Art from the home of Doctor Urrutia. You can see it from inside the museum through these windows, or outside (where I am) in the mirror glass.
