For many Hispanics, the holiday season is not officially over until Día de Reyes on January 6. Día de Reyes celebrates the arrival of the Three Wise Men — Melchior, Caspar, and Balthazar — to visit baby Jesus. This day is also known as the Feast of the Epiphany. In some parts of Latin America, kids typically get presents on Día de Reyes instead of Christmas. They leave their old shoes outside their rooms or in the living room, and in the morning they find them surrounded by gifts given by the Three Kings. The traditional food, Rosca de Reyes, is an oval-shaped (to symbolize the crown) sweet bread with dry and candied fruits. The rosca has a small plastic figurine inside representing baby Jesus. Whoever gets the figurine in their slice of rosca must throw a party with tamales and atole on Día de la Candelaria on February 2. The Rosca de Reyes is usually eaten in the morning with hot chocolate and champurrado, making it the perfect reason to keep binge-eating and delay those New Year's resolutions. You can usually find the rosca during the first week of January in local panaderías. Freshly made roscas await you at this traditional panadería, which also serves tasty pan dulce. Antigua Bakery offers two sizes of roscas. Be careful when you bite into the Rosca de Reyes; you don't want to break a tooth on baby Jesus.

Did you know that there's a patron saint for farmers (St. Isidore), nurses (St. Agatha), and truckers (St. Christopher)? There's even a patron saint of television — St. Clare of Assisi. You'll find both popular and obscure saints represented at Books and Blessings, a pleasant and friendly religious gift shop located at the Franciscan Renewal Center in Scottsdale. The shop carries a wide array of saint prayer cards, saint figurines, saint-related literature, and high-quality saint statuary. The store also offers a nice selection of Mexican folk art, greeting cards, imported Italian art, and religious jewelry. Whether you're looking for a saint who's been known to help in matters of real estate (selling your house), or matters of the heart (finding a spouse), you'll probably find that saint at Books and Blessings.
