About 10am or so, three Haitian ladies arrived to teach us how to fix the Haitian national dish, black beans rice. Sophie and Janet are very attentive. Four hours later, we had a delicious meal.
One lady spent much of her time mashing leeks, some garlic, and other items for the beans and rice. Sophie tried her hand with the mortar and pestle.
While the beans were cooking, one of the ladies, Jislin, practiced pedaling the treadle sewing maching with the instruction and encouragement of Liz and Sophie.
Jislin made a pillow and seemed to be very pleased. Janet certainly was.
