Masotas
The Masotas were inspired by visits to a cousins' house when we were kids. My cousin Bebe has an older sister, Esmeralda, and in the sixties she was a real party girl and on any given day of the week, she and her friends would meet at mi Tia Quetas' house, go into Esmeraldas' room and get ready to go out. We'd be playing and you could hear the sounds of music playing and girls chatter through the walls of the tiny home. At around 7 or 8 pm, these neighborhood girls would emerge from Esmeraldas' room with big hair, full make-up and tight dresses. Even we kids knew the one word to describe these babes: Masotas.
