Introducing Ashley and Wesley Dodd, a wonderful American couple who have inspired us to no end. Their's is a story of hope and courage. 

Most Americans today have fallen into the debt trap and unwittingly have become slaves to their high monthly payments, making it difficult to save additional funds to be able to travel. And even if we could save enough for a nice trip, our jobs keep us on a short leash, allowing only two to three weeks a year for vacation time. The reality is, you can't get very far or do very much in only three weeks.

Well, the Dodds have broken the chains that bind them by following Dave Ramsey's, "Total Money Makeover" plan (http://www.daveramsey.com - Get REAL debt help: Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover Plan) and they are now enjoying a SIX MONTH vacation.

A tagine is a ceramic bowl with a conical lid decorated elaborately with many different designs and colors. The variety of tagines attests to the variety of foods they can contain, usually delicious stews made with Moroccan spices. 

Here is the recipe for Lamb Tagine, an amazing dish that our Moroccan guest prepared and shared with us.
