qué fácil

An actual snow cone business in Weslaco, Texas.

“Viva la raza” is a slogan of pride for some Mexican Americans who identify as Chicanos, hence Gracie’s comment about the name must have meaning and make people proud to have her ices.

Brilliant, Tia Carmen!

Yo no hablo español…

Glad these comments are here. I used Google Translate, typed in “viva la raspa” and the translation was “long live the raspa.” Thanks, Google! :-)

Take off viva las vegas

Spanish play on words? Raspa being a dance and a rasp to shave ice?

Brilliant…..

Man, where’s the end of the line—I want a sno cone!

good job Tia.

Nobody noticed the raspa she is serving is red, white, and blue.

Leave it to Tia Carmen.

Snow cones aren’t good – they’re crunchy and the syrup goes right to the bottom. Shaved ice is the way to go.
