Spices

Moroccans are definitely the world leaders in spice-awareness.  I though the Chinese were tops, but Moroccans are really dialed in, both on the food front and the medicinal front.

Asa part of our adventure today, we visited a spice shop, and had a great presentation by one of the woman owners on some of the things they use for food and medicine.  We even bought a bunch of cool tinctures, including green lipstick that turns red when applied, and some cumin that's supposed to help cure my snoring.   We'll see!

This place had tons of spice jars. Note the natural dyes.

Sue and Laurel got some natural eye liner.
