Big Ups to Houston Bloggers Six Hundered Squared for giving us an amazing and insightful (humorous) take on Quinceaneras and what not to do if you’re ever getting ready to celebrate or plan one. So if you’re like me and from time to time tend to notice a flood…scratch that a SEA of flamingo pink, blue or yellow at the Galleria, have no fear because I believe this letter will definitely put an end to all this madness!

Dear Quinceañera, damas and chambelanes,

I can’t take it anymore. I don’t understand it. I felt someone has to say something because surely, no one is.

Why in the world are you and your “court” going dressed up walking around The Galleria in your dresses and terrible suits? I understand you have time to kill, seeing as the church services were earlier in the day and the dance hall on Harwin (aka El Salon) isn’t available for your party until 9pm because the bbq function currently in progress doesn’t end until 7, but there are other ways to kill time. In fact, I went ahead and made a list of things you should not do:

1. Go to the galleria.

Yeah, see that wasn’t that bad of a list was it? At this point, I totally wouldn’t judge you if you went to Red Lobster right after the church service (ok actually I would, especially since your tia sitting at the end of the table is stuffing the cheddar biscuits in her purse like there’s a black market for them. Someone should tell her she can get a box).  Heck, old school Exhilarama at Memorial City is a better option if it was still there.
