Feliz 28 de Julio!

Today is Peru's Independence day.  Just like America has the 4th of July, here in Peru they celebrate the 28th of July.  They celebrate with lots of parades and flags proudly flying.  So in honor of the 28th of July we made a special cake to enjoy.  It is called tres leches (which means 3 milks).  It is a typical peruvian cake soaked in a mixture of three milks.  To make it even more fitting for the day, we decorated it with strawberries in the colors of the Peruvian flag.
