Here it is, almost 3am, and I have the largest, busiest 48-hours ahead of me. I can't sleep. My mind is racing on all that needs to get done, for the 4th time. I am a man of lists. I believe in writing everything out so I don't forget a thing. And I wrote that list out yesterday and have looked at it a few times. I can't stop playing over in my mind the next 2 days. It's going to be fun and exciting, yet very exhausting.
I have a group of 14 college students coming in from the University of Wisconsin to stay at the house for 2 nights and take 2 cooking classes on Wednesday. Tomorrow is the day of shopping, last-minute straightening, and little to-dos. They then arrive around 5pm to get settled. If I were part of this group, I would love to do what they are about to do:
*Horse-drawn carriage around town
*Dinner at a fabulous restaurant overlooking part of the city
*Learning how to make Chicken Tajine and Harira (traditional tomato soup)
*1/2-day trek out to Volubilis (Roman ruins from 2000 years ago)
*Hang out with a bunch of friends on the roof of the house overlooking the city
*Breakfast at a cafe that serves incredible juice
All the little details are almost done. It's just mustering up the energy to see them in and run 2 cooking classes on Wed. Each group of 7 will cook lunch/dinner for the other group that travels out to Volubilis.
In the midst of it all, hope to try and take a pic or two that I can post. Already have the pose in my head, just need to execute it.
