Churro Cheesecake Bars. Cinco De Mayo!  In high school, my Spanish teacher threw the most wonderful Cinco De Mayo parties.  We celebrated Mexican heritage and learned about this unique American holiday that Latinos in California started in the  late 19th century.  We would all bring food to share and play music and games.  Do you celebrate Cinco De Mayo with your family?
