Tongue Twisters

Vegetable Lasagna. Last-last weekend's Moroccan meal by Alex and Maxene

I took pictures for possible inspiration for my ceramics class next semester.

A water clock in Fes. They could tell the time from where the water fell. 
Today was our last day of teaching. Since last Monday, we've been teaching most days from 10 to 1pm. We have new kids everyday, at different English levels (though all beginner), and hardly any materials. Sometimes white paper and mix-matched pens, though always a white board with a marker and eraser. These three hours have been exhausting, although gratifying, but we welcomed its end nonetheless.

I was paired with Wade. We tried to mix a lot of fun activities in with our lectures - Bingo, Simon Says - all big hits. We generally end the day with a few tongue twisters as well:

Who washed Washington's white wooly underwear when Washington's washer woman went west


The three thumbed thatcher 


Percy pig is plump and pink. I like a plump pink pig I think


Red leather, yellow leather (now three times fast)
