Our Second Annual Dia de los Reyes Magos! Traditionally celebrated on January 6, we will be doing our get together later in the month, on Jan. 21, to accommodate holiday travel and return to work.

All Stanford alumni, family and friends are welcome. We hope to see you there!

A special Thank You to Claudia Schweikert, JD, '95, MBA '02 for offering her home to host!

 

This event is a potluck! If possible, please email Marisa and tell her what you will be bringing (main course, beverage, dessert, etc...): isacelia@stanfordalumni.org.


El Dia de los Reyes (or "Three Kings Day") is celebrated in various Latin American countries to honor the Three Wise Men who gave gifts to the Baby Jesus. We will hopefully celebrate again this year with a Rosca de Reyes (or Kings' Cake)- this is a sweet bread baked in a round shape to symbolize a king's crown. Inside the Rosca is a plastic baby Jesus, so that whoever receives this special piece of cake is "obligated" to host an upcoming party, traditionally on Feb. 2, for El Dia de la Candelaria (Candlemas Day). We hope you will join us for a delicious meal with family and friends!
