Introduction	We are an American girl and a Ugandan man, making a life which spans from the mountains of Asheville, NC to the shores of the Nile in Jinja, Uganda. We share Sugarcane Studios, a small business which combines my skill for custom sewing and our passion for all things African. When we got married, Grace said to me (Tara) that our marriage would be like sugarcane...getting sweeter and sweeter as you bite each segment. So far, he was right...despite the obstacles, it is getting sweeter and sweeter as we go. This blog is a place for us to share our work and our story...where we came from, how we came together, where we are going, and how we see things differently along the way. Come here for bits of our stories, our families, our work, and our passions. Not sure how we will bring it all together...in this blog or in real life...but that is what makes it interesting.
