¡QUE BARBARA! Ever wonder what this means? You hear it a lot around here…It is a positive and dramatic exclamation in our local Mexican culture, and for good reason. It tells the world of your amazement and appreciation. When you see something fabulous and unusual, say “¡Que Barbara!”
St Barbara’s Day is December 4th. In honor of the day, Barbara Poole, hostess at Casa de la Noche Bed and Breakfast, invites all BARBARAS of San Miguel de Allende to celebrate around the Fountain Patio of this fun historic former bordello.
Saint Barbara is often portrayed with miniature chains and a tower. As one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, Barbara continues to be a popular saint in modern times, best known as the patron saint of armorers, artillerymen, military engineers, firemen, miners, and others who work with explosives (think fireworks!) because of her legend’s association with lightning, and also of mathematicians (bright brain?).
This is a party just for Barbaras, first name, middle name, nickname or tattooed on your arm. We will gather in the outdoor courtyard. Bring your favorite botanas. Barbara Poole will provide her famous ‘barbaritas’ – even better than margaritas!
Mark your calendar to celebrate ‘Being Barbara’ on Saturday December 4 at 5:00 pm. Come meet a lot of us, no name tags needed, just be your amazing Barbara self!
