A Box of Sweets in Morocco

The little white boxes of sweets are very recognisable in Morocco and they stir quite a lot of emotions, our little white box caused a commotion, was ogled, begged for and almost stolen.We bought our sweets in Djemaa El-Fna, which was probably not unlike most nights buzzing with music, snake charmers, henna ladies and hundreds of tourists. Restaurant waiters continuously tried to lure us in to eat and we retreated into one of many, pleased to have a moment to savor the peace of no one...
lavender scented "summer" fruit salad
From Our Adventures in Japan, 6 days ago, Similar articles
I've had this recipe bookmarked for awhile now. The reason I put summer in quotes is because this salad uses summer fruits like stone fruits (peaches, nectarines, plums) and berries (well, depending where you are). Well, by the time, the stone fruits are here, we won't have any berries in the markets, that is just how our fruits are sold here. On top of that, the white peaches in Japan are

Taking a walk on the lighter side today, after a week of bad news from back home (my friend with cancer is losing the battle and is now in the care of his loving wife with home hospice), French elections, Ugly Americans and blog comment battles. Time to lighten the hell up. So, for your viewing amusement (and mine), I submit the following photo: THIS... is a white radish. A RADISH. I never saw vegetables like this back in New Jersey; not even close. I mean, LOOK at this thing - it's longer...

When I was young, my sister and I used to stay the night at my grandma's house every Saturday, followed by church on Sunday. Those Saturdays consisted of playing outside all day, walking to a nearby farm to go swimming in their pond, playing records in the den, and "stealing" green onions from the garden. Saturday nights were spent watching television, usually Hee Haw, Lawrence Welk, and Petticoat Junction. If we were lucky, this was followed by a movie that appealed to...

OMG. Yep, you can say that again. Went I walked out of the house Thursday morning, this is what I saw. It had rained sand (or actually dust) all night) My puny little white dog wasn't that white anymore (though still puny) after his morning walk. When I walked my daughter to school. We wrote on all the car windows. We always assume that this dust suspended in the atmosphere comes from the Sahara; after all, that's the closets desert we have, although the Syrian and Saudi deserts are close as...
