San Antonio knows how to party for days and get millions to attend, but there are a few things I wish I'd known before I joined in the revelry.
A family friend had told me I needed to get a flower crown to wear for Fiesta; someone else told me it wasn't a requirement. But once a co-worker let me borrow hers, with big synthetic blooms in blue, white, orange, yellow, pink and red, I was hooked. The same multicolored paper flower crowns that are sold on the street during the Fiesta Flambeau Night Parade for $5 are available for about $1 less year-round at The Fiesta at North Star, 102 W. Rector St.
I had heard to watch out for aggressive cascarones offenders, who use force to crack the confetti eggs, and to expect to find the confetti long after the egg is cracked. But nobody told me to watch out for the confetti dye. I first discovered this when washing my husband's white guayabera, which had turquoise and pink confetti in the pockets.
