This was a wonderful experience. First we went with Lina to the market to collect all the food.

Admittedly, after the market experience we were pretty tired but I am glad we all cooked together. I can't really say enough about the joyful experience we had with Lina and Amina. Amina gave us both Moroccan names and she was just delightful. Lina taught us all about the Moroccan food and the customs. She worked tirelessly to ensure we had a good experience and we did!

It was really great to purchase food in the markets and then take it back to Ameena's home to prepare our meal.
