Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!

Distraction

What is the best way to distract her. She walks around the house, speaks without noise, just whispering, to her self, making comments and lays down on the couch. Her eyes seem more infected by the redness and it seems as if the blue of her iris is in a blush of red, looks like a shadow. She walks as if she dreams, not completely awake and yet already tired. Backpack ready in the hall, packed lunch: ratatouille and berries.
Car, sisters talking, she makes remarks about her eyes, painful to open and close her eyes, no lenses, sport, glasses, sunlight, complains. I suggest stay home. Let's give it some rest, and foremost yourself. After a couple of weeks it is the frustration that this is not going away. Anger and not willing to stay home. Arriving at school, decides.' Don't feel good, this hurts, I'll stay home'.
I looked up in my diaries: we had a same pattern of symptoms last year, early april, while Rabat is blossoming around, trees hanging loaded with seeds and flowers, allergies easily pop up.
Guy de Maupassant, "A life", and collecting pictures from flowering varieties of cactus cultures give her a nicely planned agenda. For today a wonderful way to distract my girl.

The Ratatouille: not the movie but the lunch. Made it the day before. Kept it fresh in the fridge.
1 large eggplant
5 small zucchinis
3 tomatoes
1 red pepper
fresh chopped garlic
thyme
rosemary
salt and pepper
olive oil

Chop all vegetables.
Heat the pan (cocotte) and pour oil.
Add all vegetables, keep the temperature tempered.
Cook the ratatouille for 30 minutes. Stir every 10 minutes.
