I'm making a cake for a mexican themed pot luck and I'm looking for some spanish words for party (fiesta?), celebrate, . . . anything along those lines? Anyone out there have suggestions and know correct spellings? Thanks for the help.

Well, a common taost among the spanish community is "Salute, denaro, y amor" Which basically means health, wealth and love. I'm not sure if that's an option, or not. How festive are you looking to get?

When I was taking French in high school I lived off of this web site,

http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr

It can translate anything. Whenever I used it I tried not to use words like, can't or don't.. actually spelling them out gives better results. This website helped me get A's on all my lengthy french papers I had to turn in icon_redface.gif (shhhh..don't tell my teacher..haha..). Maybe this will help.

That would be
"Salud, dinero y amor"

You guys are awesome, I knew someone would have something for me! Those phrases and words are great. I was just thinking of writing them around the cake to make it a little more festive, the cake itself is going to be pretty plain because it's just for work and I only have tonight to work on it. Thanks for all the help. icon_biggrin.gif
