Dear Friends, The month of March is significant in Ghana as it marks an important moment for Ghanaians, the celebration of Ghana’s Independence on the 6th of March 1957. As with all countries which were once under colonial rule, it symbolizes that single moment of patriotism when our forefathers decided to take hold of the fate of their country and the future of their children. As we celebrate Independence Day, we honour the founding fathers of our nation GHANA, as well as successive leaders who have managed our country and made her great and strong. Today a new government has been chosen to steer the affairs of the country for the next four years. We have provided a guide to who’s who which you may find useful. We wish them luck and best wishes at their various ministries. Our continent is so big and diverse and in this edition, we bring you a special report on the Kingdom of Morocco under the patronage of His Royal Highness Mohamed V. Pack your bags as we go shopping in Casablanca, enjoy the mysticism and culture of Marrakech and the beaches of Agadir. You can travel with Royal Air Maroc, the flight is just under 5 hours and remember to take lots of photos to share. Ghana Netherlands Chamber of Commerce and Culture (GHANNEC) is ten years old and membership has increased from 12 members in 2002 to over 100 members today. We congratulate the executives for their commitment and motivation and look forward to their further growth in the next decade. We bring you Leeni Ojaniemi’s new art column, introducing us to the cream of Ghana’s artists starting off with our famous painter Larry Otoo. Look out for Ghana Contemporary’s art exhibition that will be held on the 15th of March. March 8 is International Women’s Day, know that for us at Enjoy that women are to be honoured 24 hours a day; Thank you for your love, your intelligence, your strength. Women are our partners for life. To all friends of Enjoy, the very best of love from the team. ...Enjoy Don’t forget you can also read the magazine online at: www.enjoyaccra.com

Discover Morocco
M
orocco, officially the Kingdom of Morocco, is the most westerly of the North African countries. It has Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines, and a rugged mountain interior. Morocco’s climate, geography, and history are all more closely related to the Mediterranean than to the rest of Africa, and for this reason visitors are often struck by the odd sensation of having not quite reached Africa in Morocco. In the north, its fine beaches, lush highland valleys, and evocative old cities reinforce this impression. Yet, as one moves south and east, into and over the starkly beautiful ranges of the Atlases, Morocco’s Mediterranean character melts away. Morocco’s varied geography includes no less than four separate mountain ranges, in addition to lush river valleys, beautiful sandy coasts, and wide expanses of desert. The three most prominent mountain ranges, which run parallel to each other from the southwest to the northeast, are the Middle Atlas, the High Atlas, and the Anti-Atlas. The ascent of the country’s highest peak, Jebel Toukbal (13,665 ft. /4,165 m.), is a spectacular and not particularly difficult trek. The Moroccan coastline opens onto both the Mediterranean and the Atlantic oceans, offering plenty of great beaches as well as a number of fascinating ancient coastal cities. In the southeast, Morocco’s mountain ranges yield to the wild expanse of the Sahara. The rivers that flow down this side of the High Atlas support long, narrow, and lush river valleys that resemble linear oases. Morocco has a population of over 32 million people with its main ethnic group as the Branès (Masmuda and Sanhaja). Morocco’s political capital
Tin Mal Mosque, in a small mountain village in the High Atlas 100 km from Marrakesh
is Rabat, although the largest city is Casablanca; other major cities include Marrakesh, Tangier, Salé, Fes, Agadir, and Meknes. Morocco has a history of independence not shared by its neighbours. Its rich culture is a blend of Arab, Berber (indigenous African) and also other African and European influences. The main religion is Islam. The official language is Literary Arabic. Moroccan Arabic,
Berber and French are also spoken. Hassaniya Arabic, sometimes considered a variety of Moroccan Arabic, is spoken in parts of the southern provinces. Morocco is becoming more and more the preferred tourist destination for revelers who seek peace, quietude and a unique blend of Africa and Europe. We invite you to join us as we discover Morocco. e

The red walls of the city, built by Ali Ibn Yusuf in 1122-1123 as well as other buildings constructed during this period have given the city the nickname of the “Red City” or “Ochre City” because of the red sandstone used. Marrakesh grew rapidly and established itself as a cultural, religious, and trading center for the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa. Jemaa el-Fnaa is the busiest square in Africa. As one of the biggest tourist cities in Africa, Marrakech has over 400 hotels and is host of many cultural festivals of note which includes the National Folklore Festival, the Marrakech Festival of Popular Arts, in which a variety of famous Moroccan musicians and artists participate and the Berber Festival to entertain tourists.

Guests experience true serenity away from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, with indoor courtyard pools, palm trees and scattered rose petals adorning the traditional fixtures and architecture.

Larry Otoo, is one of Ghana’s most renowned painters and he likes to refer to himself as a “contemporary traditionalist.” Born in Accra in 1956, his subject matter is inspired by the everyday activities of ordinary Ghanaians. His vibrant, abstract paintings in oil and acrylic capture the rhythm and beat of daily life. He paints, he says, “to record and preserve our traditions visually.”
Art & CUlture Leeni: The occupation of an artist is not regarded highly in Ghana. Your father was against your choice of profession and wanted you to take a more traditional job. What made you believe in yourself and how would you say things have changed since the 70’s OR have they? Larry: It was very difficult in the beginning to get the approval of my parents but my creative urge was so strong that it helped me overcome the opposition of my parents. I felt that only by exploring this creativity would I feel happy both spiritually and emotionally. Also I love to relate to the larger world in terms of my skill and my ability to make people happy through what I create. In a nutshell, I was determined from an early age to be an artist and to be one of the best. Today, young artists have access to a wider spectrum of art practices both at home and abroad via the internet and I believe that this has given young artists in Ghana more confidence. Technology, new methods of working and new product like acrylics etc have also made it easier for them
to practice and be versatile and adept. In general I feel that there is more interest in the arts and more opportunity for their talent to become a career. Leeni: Describe in a few words the environment for a visual artist in Ghana today and what would you like to see change?
Larry: Ghana should have a national gallery. This would provide an arena for people who don’t live in Ghana to view a national collection that shows the pride and the heritage of the people. I would encourage private individuals and corporations to assist with an institution that would act as a national gallery where artists can showcase their work. Leeni: Tate Modern, one of the biggest galleries in the world, has recently been in Ghana with their programme “Across Borders”. They have also started to build an African art collection. How do you rate African art as an investment and have you felt increasing international interest in your work? Larry: Yes there has been a lot of interest. In 2011 the Embassy of Spain invited me to have an exhibition in Segovia and it was then when I truly realized that art is a way of bringing countries and people together. When artists from different cultures collaborate there
ENJOY No 77 March 2013 | 33
ENJOY is an expansion of ideas and a bond fostered between different cultures. I feel that interest in my work from abroad has been raised to another level. Europe is now looking at other aspects of African tradition and art is one of these. With this interest in African art in terms of collecting and investment we can say that the artist as the creator will be more confident in his work as it competes and is accepted on the world stage. Leeni: Ghana Contemporary is on a mission to educate the audience in Ghana about collecting art. What in your opinion makes a good art collection or a collector? Larry: I was at the Thiessen museum in Spain and I saw a group of school children in the museum and I was really happy because I feel that for the people to get an interest in art they need to be given exposure at an early age.
Art & Culture Leeni: -We all love art, especially Larry Otoo’s art. Tell us why it is important to be surrounded by art. Larry: I have over the years followed biographies of artists and what I have noticed is a certain calm about creative people and a sense of fulfilment. I would recommend that people acquire art that is aesthetically pleasing as the human being is created to enjoy aesthetic things, that’s why we have eyes. So this all culminates in the urge to satisfy our desires with what is pleasing to the eye and the mind. That’s why it is psychologically important to surround yourself with things that are pleasing to you. Leeni: You have an exhibition coming up in Barcelona. Ghana Contemporary, will be attending and providing feedback from the show. Tell us about your other future plans and ambitions? Larry: I am interested in exposing
Ghanaian art to the outside world. I also want to create a forum for exchange between artists from different countries, from Europe, the Americas and Asia for example. I would love to invite artists to come to Ghana and see what we do and how we exhibit here. We can create different forums for increased dialogue. I also want to create a haven for local and international artists, a retreat where they can come and stay and enjoy the Ghanaian vibe. Stay tuned - the next exhibition of Ghana Contemporary sponsored by Grey Goose will be held in La Villa Boutique Hotel on the 15th March. The exhibition called “Kaleidoscope” will showcase 9 of the most dynamic contemporary artists in the country. Ghana Contemporary extends this exclusive invitation to the readers of Enjoy Accra!

This Month
Aries
A ries 21/3-20/04
Taurus 21/4-21/05
Gemini 22/5-21/06
There are some loose ends to tie this month, dear Aries. Those endeavors, and possibly relationships, that are in private or behind the scenes tend to figure strongly and thrive, particularly from the 4-6. The 8-9 is excellent for research of a financial or business strategy - it may be something that you’ve come up with in the past, but now deserves special attention. People from your past could be involved now. As March progresses, it can be as if you are emerging from a waking sleep with planets, one by one, emerging from your privacy sector and moving into your sign. From the 12th forward, your energy levels run high (sometimes too high) and your pioneering instincts are strong. By the 21st, the Sun and Venus are in your sign, and others are taking note. This is a fabulous period for charm and attractiveness. The 27-30 is a power period for you, but it can also be an emotional and impulsive time. Try not to overdo it! You can be rebellious and seeking freedom possibly at all costs.
March can bring opportunities to clinch a deal and cement a bond, or there can be a positive legal outcome, dear Taurus. However, there can be some financial matters involved that require extra thought. The New Moon on the 11th brings new energy to friendships and long-term goals. From the 17th forward, you will benefit from working on clearing up any problems that have cropped up with friends. This is a time for feeling personally hopeful, emotionally satisfied, and socially popular. Friendships might be renewed or revitalized. In the last few days of March, health or work problems can make themselves known, quite suddenly. For some of you, a neglected matter from the past can re-emerge, or there can be a strong temptation to impulsively act on a secret desire. Get extra rest and treat any slow-downs as a sign that you may need more time to recoup, or to reconsider. You are beginning a period best used for emotional renewal, tying up loose ends, and laying low.
The month ahead is strong for networking, friendships, and new approaches in your career, dear Gemini. The first ten days of March can find you streamlining your routines, heavily involved in research, and highly motivated in work and health matters. The New Moon on the 11th brings fresh energy for career and reputation matters, although it’s better to wait until after the 17th to launch new projects. As well, the second half of the month is more auspicious for clearing up misunderstandings with authority figures. From the 22nd through to the end of the month, there can be surprising happenings with friends or acquaintances and possibly a love relationship. Unexpected meetings, disruptions, or changes that point you in a new direction can occur now. Love requires emotional space and acceptance, and some of you could find love through or with friends and groups. It’s also a time when inspiration comes suddenly, and you could pick up new, and possibly radically different, interests or goals at this time.

HOROSCOPE
Cancer 22/6-23/07
Libra 24/9-23/10
Capricorn 22/12-20/01
This is a month in which you can be more experimental, spontaneous, and adventurous than usual, dear Cancer. Your need to “get away from it all” is powerful. Travel or educational plans have a better chance of coming together after the 17th. You are likely to feel the need to assert your independence, with those in authority, family, and/or a partner in March. You have a stronger desire to define your relationships, or to come to a deeper understanding and possibly commitment. Around the 22nd, you might make an unexpected bold careerrelated move, or experience a disruption that sets you on a new course altogether. Opportunities can emerge around the 28th that also seem to come from out of the blue.
A strong focus on your health and work routines continues in March, dear Libra. You could be digging up interesting information now, and research of all kinds can be very beneficial. Close partnerships begin to heat up towards mid-month, and your attention shifts to significant others even more so by the 20-21. The last week of the month brings an emotional Full Moon in your sign, and emotions bubble up to the surface with great force, as well as a big commotion in your partnership sector. Sudden changes, new directions, and strong emotions characterize this period. It’s a powerful period for your relationships (this continues into the first week of April), and while spontaneity is the name of the game at this time, try to avoid rash or careless decisions.
L eo 24/7-23/08
Scorpio 24/10-22/11
March 4-8 is a very strong period for your relationships, dear Capricorn, and in particular with friends and siblings. Even with Mercury retrograde (until the 17th), you can manage to strengthen your relationships through shows of support and positive actions. Most of March is excellent for collecting information, research of any kind, and work that involves refining and editing. By month’s end, you’ll be ready to move new projects ahead. Until then, work on getting things right. There can be surprising events and circumstances surrounding home and family from the 22nd forward. Keep in mind that desires can come on quite suddenly, but may not be long-lasting, so that if you have a sudden and seemingly urgent desire to redecorate or part ways with someone close to you, you may want to wait a few days to see if the desire sticks with you.
The first ten days of March are strong for research and strategy, dear Leo. While you should wait to begin new projects until after the 17th, you can be busy refining and reworking those already in progress, and should meet with success. Finances deserve special attention, particularly shared money and property as well as loans and support payments. Energetically speaking, the month picks up pace considerably by the 12th, and even more so after the 21st. You could feel as if you are moving out of the dark and into the light, and you’re likely to find the spirit and motivation to embark on unusual or simply different adventures. There are some wonderful and perhaps surprising opportunities that have to do with legal affairs, travel, or education this month, particularly around the 21-23 and 27-29.
Romance and pleasure-seeking are in strong focus this month, dear Scorpio. Desires come on quickly and with great force in March and April. You are especially companionable and open to new experiences, although perhaps starryeyed at times. Romantic illusions or selfdeceptions should be watched for. People from the past could be in strong focus this month. You can experience some feelings of regret or hesitance from the 23rd, when responsibilities make themselves known. Enjoy yourself, but keep expectations realistic. From the 27th and into April, surprising events and feelings can arise, particularly in the areas of work, daily routines, and health. Hidden issues and information can surface. Some of you could meet a romantic partner through any of these things, and others might find that sudden events or opportunities push them into a new direction in their work or with health and wellbeing endeavors.
Virgo 24/8-23/09 Dear Virgo, you have been learning the value of waiting for strategic moments to express yourself and to choose your words more carefully with Saturn in your communications sector this year. You might even find that if you hold back opinions or concerns until you’ve truly processed them, you no longer find it wise to express them at all. While others may wonder why you’re so quiet, this is in fact an important learning experience for you, as you discover that what you say can impact the direction of your life in profound ways. The first ten days of March are strong for these discoveries, as well as for research and review. New beginnings in a partnership are stimulated after the New Moon on the 11th, and the 17th brings more forward-looking energy to a relationship. In the last week of the month, there can be a surprising or sudden show of support, emotional or financial.
Sagittarius 23/11-21/12
March is strong for making memories with family and for getting some muchneeded down time, dear Sagittarius. Even so, domestic life is likely to be animated at times, but mostly in a pleasurable way. From the 20th, a shift of focus to more creative, sociable, and pleasure-seeking activities occurs. Surprises are in store, and they’re pointing you in new directions. There could also be surprising turns of events surrounding creative projects, romance, friends, and children at this time. Invitations to go out and have some fun should be grabbed, but try to keep one foot on the ground, particularly when it comes to money. The inner risk-taker is awakened now, and it will be important to have some sense of where you might be headed before you take off. Small risks, however, could very well pay off. Adjustments need to be made in a close partnership or friendship.
A quarius 21/01-19/02 March is strong for gathering information and for inspired money-making ideas, dear Aquarius. While you may want to wait before launching your more important business or financial plans until the end of the month, pay special attention to the ideas coming to you throughout March, and do your research. Your initiative is stronger than usual from mid-month, and your taste for the new and untried is powerful. A partner is in your corner, and an important meeting of minds can occur in the last week of the month. Your powers of attraction skyrocket, and outstanding creative opportunities arise. You could be the go-to person for information and know-how. New interests and possibly love opportunities can be part of the picture in the last week of the month. Some of you could meet someone special through the phone, online, at school, or possibly in your own neighborhood with your relationship ruler (the Sun), your own ruler (Uranus), and the love planet (Venus) aligning in your communications sector.
Pisces 20/02-20/03 The month ahead is a strong one for you, dear Pisces, in terms of personal influence, goal-setting, and finances. The New Moon on the 11th launches a period of increased personal power and charisma, and on the 17th, Mercury ends its retrograde period in your sign. This gives you the green light to begin moving personal projects ahead. You are bolder than usual, and motivated to pursue what you want and to prove your value. There may be job offers and opportunities, and some of you could be receiving significant gifts or bonuses. The last week of the month can stimulate a financial breakthrough, or simply a sudden purchase, but whatever does occur, it seems out of the blueo and unexpected. ENJOY N 77 March 2013 | 37

Serves
4 people
Directions In a large bowl, mix the garlic, cumin, ginger, paprika, salt and pepper, 1/2 cup grated onion, and the oil. Rinse the preserved lemons, and remove the pulp. RESERVE the lemon peel for later use. Add the lemon pulp to the mixing bowl. Add the chicken. Mix everything together and place in a large plastic bag to marinate overnight in the refrigerator. (24hours really gives the chicken the best flavor.)
» Ingredients » 6 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped » 1 teaspoon ground cumin » 1 teaspoon ground ginger » 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika » 1 tablespoon kosher or sea salt » 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper » 1 large Spanish onion, grated (about 1 cup) » 2 tablespoons canola, grapeseed or olive oil (not a heavy olive oil)
» 1 to 2 preserved lemons, depending on size » 8 chicken thighs, with bone and skin » Stems from the parsley and cilantro, tied with twine » 1/4 teaspoon powdered saffron or 1/4 teaspoon powdered turmeric and 4 strands saffron » 1 cup pitted green Moroccan or Greek olives » 1/2 bunch Italian parsley, about 1/4 cup chopped » 1/2 bunch cilantro, about » 1/4 cup chopped
In a large Dutch oven or casserole, place the chicken and marinade; add the stems of the parsley and cilantro, the rest of the grated onion, the powdered saffron and 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil over high heat, turn down to a simmer and cook, partially covered, for 30 minutes.
»
Remove the cover, stir the chicken and continue to simmer for another 15 minutes or until the chicken is tender. Remove the chicken to a serving dish and cover with foil to keep warm. Keep sauce on stove and begin to reduce. Slice the preserved lemon peel into thin slices and add to the sauce along with the olives, parsley and cilantro. Reduce until the sauce is just a little thick. This shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes at most. Uncover the chicken and remove the skin from the chicken. (It doesn’t look pretty and who needs the extra fat.) Pour sauce over chicken and serve.

ABL Guide
Know your limit If you do not already know how much alcohol you can handle without losing control, try it out one time at home with a friend present and have them videotape you, then see what happens when you consume more than the recommended one drink per hour.
Eat while you drink It is particularly good to eat high protein foods such as cheese and peanuts, which help to slow the absorption of alcohol into the circulatory system.
Cultivate taste Enjoy your drink, don’t rush it. If you gulp a drink you will be losing the pleasure of tasting and smelling the various flavours in the drink.
Accept a drink only when you really want one At a party if someone is trying to force another drink on you, ask for ice or drink a non-alcoholic beverage.
Skip a drink now and then Space your alcoholic drinks out to keep the desired blood alcohol concentration.
Appoint a designated driver Have someone available who will not be drinking and will drive all drinkers home. This is critical if the person has consumed more than one drink per hour. If you know that you will have to drive after consuming alcohol, limit your consumption to no more than one ENJOY N 77 March 2013 | 53 drink an hour. o

ABL Guide
“
In order to enjoy beer, on needs
to know how to totally enjoy and savour every drop of the drink meant for kings….
Aroma
”
I like to leave a little room at the top of a bowlshaped beer glass in order to swish the beer around and create more aroma. Whichever way you aerate the beer, you’ll want to have some room to stick your nose down in there and give it a good smell. Look for beer smells like malt, yeast, alcohol and hops. Identify unique and signature smell.
Appearance Hold your glass up to the light and check for clarity, cloudiness or colour and match those up with the style of beer you are drinking . Club beer should be golden and clear.
Taste After completing the steps listed above, taste the beer by taking a small mouthful and breathing in slightly as you taste the beer. This will open up all your senses and let you get a complete picture of what you are tasting. In the proper glass, the beer should hit your tongue denoting bitter and sweet flavours on the parts of your mouth that can discern those tastes. Take a second taste and swish the beer around in your mouth slightly to move the beer across all your flavour sensing areas.
Mouth Feel By tasting beer, you should be able to determine the mouth feel. Some beers have a heavy, almost oily mouth feel to them, while other beers are light and dry and offer very little by way of mouth feel. Becoming familiar with beer styles will help you determine what type of mouth feel is common with each style.
Finish
Some beers finish with a sweet, pleasant after taste, while other beers finish bitter and even dry. When you taste your beer and swallow it, ask yourself what it leaves behind? What’s the last thing you taste? With a sweeter finish, you’ll end up with a sharper leftover taste impression in the front of your mouth, while with a bitter beer, you’ll taste it more in the back of the mouth. With a dry finish, it will leave very little in the way of taste residue, especially overly sweet tastes. Dry usually denotes the absence of sweet. ENJOY N 77 March 2013 | 55 o
