Misc pics








The first picture is of my friend Rachel and our two language partners. We were getting gelato and crepes at a swanky cafe in the new city. There are also two pictures of the shbekia baking process. Shbekia is a crunchy, sticky pastry that tastes like solidified molasses with some spices and sesame seeds. It's delicious and is eaten along with harira, a savory meat and garbanzo bean stew. It's a weird combination, but it works. Supposedly it is eaten every night for Ramadan in Morocco so I probably won't think it's so delicious a month from now. The last three pictures are me experimenting with the miniature setting on my camera. The view is from the roof of my apartment building and the blurred edges of the photos are supposed to make everything look small...
