My Favorite Nopal

25 Apr

Cindylu over at Lotería Chicana posted recently on her relationship to the nopal. I don’t have a nopal story of my own, but I have a favorite nopal. It takes up all of a hillside on the road home, near Rose Hills.  Every time I drive by I am reminded of what it is to be big, bad, and prickly.
