Happy # 85 to Leo "Chico" Cardenas

 
He made it to the majors in 1960 where he got the nickname of “Chico” and “Mr. Automatic” because he was so good at playing shortstop.
 
Cardenas was a 5-time All Star.  He played 9 years with the Cincinnati Reds and 3 with the Minnesota Twins.    He replaced fellow Cuban Zoilo Versalles as the shortstop for the Twins.
 
Overall, he hit .257 over 16 seasons.     Along the way, he hit 20 HR & 81 RBI's in 1966 and 18 HR & 75 RBI's in 1970.   Back then, those were huge power numbers for a shortstop.
 
Cardenas played in the 1961 World Series with the Reds and in the 1969 & 1970 ALCS with the Twins.   He is best remembered as the man who made everything look easy at shortstop.

A pre-Castro Cuban Navidad


Getting ready for 'Navidad" is one of my favorite Cuban traditions, in part because my mother's kitchen had a wonderful smell all month!

For a little pre-Castro nostalgia, see Postal de Navidad - Christmas Card!

 Again, have a good Noche Buena!  Feliz Navidad to all of you!

"Merry Christmas" to the troops overseas and their families back home!


It's another Christmas season and there are troops over in Afghanistan, the Korean Peninsula, Kuwait and others.

We are grateful for their service and commitment to defending the homeland.    

 And we remember Ernie Pyle, who wrote about the soldiers of World War II.

Happy # 87 Pope Francis


We wish Pope Francis a very happy birthday.   He was born in 1936 on this day in Argentina

 A couple of days ago, I wrote an article following the "Person of the Year" recognition.

 I love Pope Francis' "down to earth" approach.  It's very refreshing.

 Happy birthday!
