Once blended, shake quickly for about 30 seconds until all the mixture has been thoroughly mixed before straining it into a glass and serving immediately. Tia Maria can also be found in various other cocktails like White Russians, Mudslides and others.
Toussaint
Toussaint is a French holiday dedicated to remembering those who have passed on and is usually observed on November 1st as a public holiday (“jour ferie”). This special occasion allows people to remember those they have lost as well as honor them with flowers and candles in memory.
Catholics consider Memorial Day a religious holiday and many attend mass to venerate both canonized and noncanonized saints, pray for their souls, visit cemeteries to bring flowers or candles, visit family and friends, reconnect, and pay respects to those they’ve lost. It can also serve as an opportunity to reconnect with deceased loved ones through visiting cemeteries; people usually bring flowers or candles when paying their respects at gravesites of loved ones as part of this ceremony.
Louverture was raised as a Roman Catholic, but his early life included elements of Vodou religion as practiced among African slaves in Saint-Domingue – this had an enormous influence on his later political decisions. Yet despite these religious influences, Louverture was highly educated; familiar with Epictetus and Machiavelli works, studying medicine and herbal remedies as well as being rumored to have been part of Freemasonic organizations prior to a papal ban in 1738.
This year All Saints Day falls on Thursday and French people can look forward to an extra long weekend! Toussaint is a public holiday (Jour Ferie), meaning most will have off work.
Toussaint Day is observed by many French families and forms an integral part of the national calendar. The term combines two separate events – All Saints’ Day (which celebrates all saints canonized and uncanonized), as well as All Souls’ Day, which commemorates deceased loved ones). Together these holidays make up “Toussaint”.
