Goodbye Starbucks, Hello Mint Tea.: December 2007
http://miainmorocco.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Goodbye Starbucks, Hello Mint Tea. Tuesday, December 25, 2007. Merry Christmas or Mbruk l'3id? With the lack of internet and alone time in my town, I’ve had a difficult time keeping up with my blog. Although, in the spirit of Christmas, I’ve decided to quarantine myself in a room with Xmas tunes, devoting time to emails and a blog entry that I will later post when I get to chance to go to Ouarzazate where there are a handful of cybercafes with somewhat steady internet connections. Here are a few pics: so...

To live is to fly. The quest for the perfect couscous. Monday, September 21, 2009. Here are the murals created at our camp this past August with the help of local Roudani artist Soufiane Ait Ben Hmad. They were painted on the walls of a local community association and elementary school. I helped paint this one, which depicts mothers sending their children to school and the importance of education:. Another mural about the importance of education:.

To live is to fly. The quest for the perfect couscous. Sunday, June 21, 2009. Taking a moment for. The amazing ability of rural taxi drivers to back long distances at great speeds down long earthen alleyways without ever scraping against the wall. How whitewashed earthen walls of the homes here look blue in the early twilight. The usage of "bladi" and "rumi" to indicate (very generally) local and foreign products or ways of doing things. My latest favorite smoothie. Generous spoonful or two of honey.

To live is to fly. The quest for the perfect couscous. Wednesday, October 15, 2008. Take a survey, help us out! I've put together a very short, anonymous. Survey on behalf of the weaving association I'm working with. I'm trying to determine a fair price for their carpets that will maximize sales and profits in an overseas market. Maybe even more importantly, I'll use the results as a teaching tool to demonstrate the importance of market research. Click Here to take survey. Tuesday, October 14, 2008.

To live is to fly. The quest for the perfect couscous. Friday, October 30, 2009. Three weeks to COS! Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Into the great laugh of mankind. Title from the title of a Sufjan Stevens song that sort of captures my mood at the moment. My life looks like the routine of the past two years, if you can call it a routine, but recently the patterns have been subtly shifting and everything is louder and more complicated and better in a lot of ways. Time is just flying! Mix with about a cup of...

To live is to fly. The quest for the perfect couscous. Sunday, January 25, 2009. A lost luggage miracle. This, as a fellow volunteer recently commented, is the kind of story that makes people believe in God. Also paisley. Speaking of God and miracles, did you know that in Islam, Jesus' first miracle was that he was a talking baby. That's right. Full sentences, in the manger. Pretty sweet if you ask me. You will NEVER GUESS what happened. Seriously, try to guess. I bet the following is not what you guessed.
