July 18 & 19.
In Natchitoches (pronounced Knack-a-tish) we had two days in which we did painting for about half a day and then had the rest of the day to explore the town or rest or whatever…One woman came in with her two granddaughters to cook for us. She had been on previous Fuller Center tours and had signed up to come on at least part of this one but health problems got in her way. She came and cooked Louisiana food for us instead! We had red beans and rice, and shrimp pasta salad and bread pudding with praline sauce. The next morning she had made beignets and chicory cafe au lait. She also had decorated cookies to look like hammers and paint brushes. We were well-fed. We also had meat pies, a Natchitoches specialty.
you are my hero….God Bless
