A few weeks ago, blogger buddy Chris and I returned to Tlacolula de Matamoros for the 5th annual Festival de la Nieve, Mezcal, Gastronomía. Besides yummy food, ice creams, and drink there were vendors of textiles, baskets, and barro.
These are the women of San Marcos Tlapazola and their elegant and functional pottery. I already have several oft used pieces, including a comal. However, the girl in the red dress and blue apron above, talked me into a little salsa dish. How could I resist?
You can always find these women of red clay selling their wares on Sunday market day in Tlacolula and, if you are in the market for a comal, they stroll the aisles of the Mercado Benito Juárez in Oaxaca city almost everyday. That’s where I got mine!
And, if you want to see these gals in action, check out the video Mujeresdelbarrorojo.

I hate that I have to sign in to Word Press to “like” this.
Not thrilled with that, either. Returning tonight from the magical mystery tour… an intriguing, confounding, and fabulous time, we have had. Hasta pronto!
Excellent photo report! Thank You.
