Good morning! It is about noon here in Abuja on Friday. Tomorrow is the big wedding day for our niece Tariye Isoun and her perspective husband Ademola Gnosiadin, and the house is buzzing with actgivity. The flowers are being "built" for the tables, supplied from the personal garden of a friend, personized cups are being polished up and stuffed with an note letting guests know they can take them home, Mary ann and a group cut and assembled wedding programs yesterday, too many to count. So it is almost as if the party is already underway. Mary Ann tried on her outfit, as I did, and all fit perfectly. She won't let me see hers until tomorrow! Wow - like my bride all over again! It will be fun. She has a head scarf / wrap as a part of her outfit, and is pretty excited about it.
We have hit a few hotspots within an hours drive or so. Let's see - today is Friday, so on Wednesday, we visited a local pottery shop, but more than a shop. It is the whole production operation, where they start with a pile of raw clay/sand/dirt, and finish with ovenproof cookware in beautiful colors and shapes.
