I’m Amanda, the only girl up there in the picture. I’m so glad you’ve come to visit me. I am a curious world traveling, mom of two busy boys, foodie at heart, addicted to social media and lover of all things Moroccan. In 2004 I met and fell in love with my husband in fairy-tale fashion on the streets of Marrakech and our journey hasn’t slowed down since. If I’m not talking about food here, I am engaged in my daytime role as a non-profit fund development and community outreach coordinator for a local literacy organization or being run in circles by my boys.
Where Did MarocMama Come From?
I started this blog in 2007 as a way to share my recipes and the recipes of my husbands family as they have been shared with me. As I have grown as an individual and as a mother, it has expanded to include the other areas of our life that are important. You might hear me refer to MarocBaba as well that’s him up there. Our two boys have international names that no one can spell or pronounce so for clarity’s sake you might hear them mentioned as M and K. M’s the big guy and K’s the little dude.
My hope for this blog is that it provides inspiration to others to explore Moroccan cuisine and culture. I also hope that through our journey as a bi-cultural family I can offer some insight into the journey and struggles along the way. I don’t focus only on Morocco and Moroccan food because that would neglect a big part of our life – my culture!
