Yesterday, we had our biggest day by far at the cooking school. The U.S. Embassy in our country brought in 12 people for a day to our city. We broke them into 2 groups to make things a little more manageable.
The first group of 6 stayed at the house to cook while the other group took a 2-hour tour around the city. Then we did the flip around 1pm and frantically cleaned all the dishes and reset-up the stations for the next group.
All in all, we had an excellent time filled with laughter, stories, GREAT FOOD (bell pepper salad, eggplant salad & chicken tajine with walnut-stuffed apricots) and then the inevitable HAIL STORM that lasted about 10 minutes. Being a former TOUR GUIDE myself, I was relieved to hear that the outdoor group at the time was in some horse stalls or graineries. But that just makes for better memories of the day. Whatever it takes for people to remember us, right? We're already in the works for a day in January to bring another group.
