Where to Begin

True, it's been awhile since we contributed anything to the Chronicles, but it's not because we've been eating bon-bons all day. In the months since our last post we've: undergone Third World surgery; started a Moroccan business (www.pophamdesign.com), actually make that two (www.habibihomes.com); been home and back (yes, back, we're going to be in Marrakech for awhile for those of you who put off an early visit); made some new friends; hosted some great old friends and family; and generally continued weaving our little thread into the fabric of life here in Marrakech. Oh yeah, we also got a car - a rather toy-like car, but a car nonetheless. Her name is Tarte Citron and she's had her seats slipcovered in a very tarty chartreuse linen with white piping.

What's past is past, though, so we'll attempt some fresh news soon. In the meantime, here are a few pics from the last 6 months; sadly, of late, our camera has been relegated to capturing cement tiles in all their glory.


Tarte Citron, isn't she lovely!
