When the ghosts come out….whoooo……when the goblins shriek….eeeeek…… is what my youngest has been singing non-stop for the last two weeks and now seems to be imprinted on my brain!!!!

Two things I am a huge fan of are…risotto…and magazines! Well you may be wondering what the two possibly have to do with each other.

Collecting parcels here in Rabat is always a challenging affair! Generally any packages larger than about 2-3 books ends up in the central post office to be checked by customs. Now this: a) involves driving to the centre of town in the traffic from hell and finding parking which is just like finding the proverbial [...]

Wow, not sure what happened to this week but suddenly Friday is looming and all I seemed to have done is sit in Rabat traffic for the last 4 days! I also can quite simply not believe it is already October! Hopefully next week will be more productive! This is a quick and easy starter [...]
