Barley Fields and Bubble Wrap

It's here!! Our moving day that is! I can't believe our time in Algiers has already some to an end, and I am both sad, nostalgic, relieved, overwhelmed, and excited for the future. But at the moment, I'm just surrounded by boxes. 2014: Year of the Nomad!

I have more to say about our time in Algiers, but until I can sort through all this bubble wrap, I'll leave you with some photos from our recent trip to Morocco.

I always LOVE your photos from Africa, stunning! And I plan to try that scrumptious-looking chickpea sandwich soon.

I know I'm late to this, but if you're still blogging, maybe you can enlighten me about a large tooled brass table that looks like a plate, that my father brought home from Algeria in the Seventies. He called it a meshwi dish, and claimed the food was placed directly on it. Is this true? It's about three feet wide, with a wrought iron folding stand.

I love the images of Algeria. I visited when my dad was there, but didn't have the luxury of a proper camera. I only have a few blurry Instamatic photos. I could kick myself!
