Seasonal Recipes
Each month I am choosing a new fruit or veggie that I normally don’t cook with and use it to make a homemade, local and seasonal dish.
Pictures
95 of us Swore-in as official Peace Corps Volunteers on April 1, 2015.
The girl who ended up not taking as many photos as she thought did take this one and really liked it so I thought I would post it for many to see.
Here is Santiago. He was full of energy and you would often find him bundled up in his sleeping bag during class.
Mid-west Region
Kids from the camp
One of the pictures resulting from the trash photo hunt. I think they felt bad for the donkey.
Men and women praying outside in Casablanca
Anne got henna for the xutoba.
I put this picture in the album not because it was a common site, but because it was a rare site. Most cities in Morocco have many donkeys. This unfortunately was the ONLY donkey in our training site.
Guys hanging out watching soccer on the other side of the wall.
This is us in the snow. The building of a legendary snowman and an epic snow ball fight followed the taking of this picture.
Horse cart!
Three lovely ladies!
View of the waterfalls from the bottom
Alice is the oldest current PCV. All of us feel very privileged to serve with her. I think she is 85.
Milui
Here is a picture of the souk from our bedroom window. It is pretty big.
Palais de Papes
Here are Katie and Lisa, two of the most encouraging and cheerful people you will meet.
Here is our wonderful teacher Hind, always close by to the heater.
Sunset from our bedroom window
Anne got henna for the xutoba.
This is the Youth Center where we spent time teaching English and doing activities with some of the youth. Unfortunately, the snow was also a common site.
Down the river (note Matt and Martize in the corner)
Oh and we also saw some Barbary Apes
Here is Joseph, 3rd time Peace Corps Volunteer. That man is a wealth of experience and knowledge.

The grounds of the hotel with Martize in the corner
Gigondas
Tree house
After… Package 2
Horses charging at the musm.
Peyton and me
Matthew often pretended to be Gandalf throughout CBT. He never did find a good staff, though.
So happy to be new PCVs!
This is the street we lived on. The strange things we put on our classroom walls make a little more sense after seeing this depressing picture.
Our wonderful CBT group!
Here is Matthew trying to keep warm in his jellaba and blanket.
One of Anne’s favorite shots from the trip
Floating Head Matthew
View of Avignon from the Palais de Papes (Palais of the Popes).
Our CBT (most of us anyway) with the US Ambassador.
