With talk of earthquakes, tsunami’s and supermoons, everyday life here in the palmeraie outside of Marrakech, is thankfully quiet and peaceful. We have not fallen asleep to what’s happening in the rest of the world, but what can we do? We construct colorful and tasty tagines as offerings and read poetry aloud. In times of turmoil and uncertainty in pockets around the globe, we know that life is not perfect and never will be. But we do what we can do to celebrate the beauty at hand. Spring Tagine with chicken, fava and fresh fennel.
