And the first one arrived...

I got my first xmascard this year from Rubén and it said 'please open in a video', so I did... I will not do it for all the cards I get, it would just be too much work :p
Of course i'll be sending out xmascards again too this year, after last year's success :)
If you want one, let me know ;)
And yes, you can send me one too! I'd love it if you did :)

Mich, you have a face that artists adore. Its features are very distinct, original, and easy to draw or paint. I've actually been thinking about making a painting using you as a model.

In other news, I just about died laughing when you said, ". . . I could use some coal." LoL XD

I think this is one of my most favorite videos of yours because of how happy you are in it.

[michske86]

Hahahahaha :p

If you make a painting of me I would LOVE to see it :) that would be brilliant :)

Your Spanish is actually pretty good. Not really butchered. I just didn't understand the last one you said ahaha.

According to the card it's something along the lines of "turrón (or tumón) polvorones mazapenes" XD no idea what it means though :p

^^ This video made my day. Thank you Michiel !

@ericos a Rubén card? It sounds like a brand xD Maybe I should register it lol

[ericos]

I hope mine is second. =D

Aw, awesome card. My Rubén card was amazing as well. So creative! ^^

Mhmm. Just know if you ever want to eat turrónes, get treat to dig deep. They are hard to break. =/ Well at least the alicante turrón that I've eaten [and didn't finish ahaha].

[michske86]

Thanks for explaining :D

[edgehaedjr]

Oh and mantecados are one he missed, but they contain no almonds [that I recall] but they are buttery. I love me some polvorones though. :D

[]= Just separating the plural from the singular.

[edgehaedjr]

Oh OK. Those are Spanish sweets that most Hispanics, and some Latinos, eat during the Holidays: Turrón, polvoron[es], mazapan[es] (also called marzipan[es]) and mantecado[s]. Turrón are Arabic sweets that kinda look like candy with almonds in them. Polvoron are cookies that contain almonds, and break really fast. They are very powdered. Reason for its name: Polvo means dust. Mazapan I can't remember, but have almonds. See the trend? Ahaha.

Those are cookies and/or desserts.
