My Moroccan Family

As most of you know I had no second thoughts whatsoever about moving to Morocco . Every day is a good day here. I don't ever have a bad day at the office, so to speak. At the riad there are 4 great staff members, all Moroccan and now they have me as well, the crazy Australian lady. We have formed a family and there is much laughter and teasing and chatter, even Bollywood dancing. The chatter takes place in a melange of French, English and Arabic. I am given things to taste, invited to share meals and even now I am entrusted to do small kitchen tasks like peeling tomatoes and stirring cakes. Today I was allowed to fill the spice jars  and sample some lentil soup!! All this takes place in a shoe box size kitchen filled with a great deal of warmth, friendship and love. With the world in such turmoil, I am privileged to share in this.
