ethnic month?
Feb. 13th, 2002 08:49 amStuff happening in February this month in Fort Lauderdale. Couldn't they spread it out a bit? flipside, there's yummy food of every stripe available. :) Sakes... Melting pot, indeed. I don't even need to mention the Brazilian, Cuban, Finnish and Hatian elements that are a part of daily life, too.
Greek fest, African-American history celebration (I missed that one, it was last weekend), Canada fest, Irish fest, Italian fest, Seminole tribal fair, Texas chili cook-off, ren fest, mardi gras, Scottish festival ... I imagine that next month it'll be Belgians and People of Russo/Austrailain decent. Th elevel of diversity always impresses me.... I'm just surprised that so much is bundled into one small month!
The Germans get a month in September... not counting Oktoberfest.

I actually know a few Canada transplants in Florida. I guess they got sick of the cold and moved as South as they could. :)
