Joyce
is a descendant of an Acadian family that emigrated
from Canada during the exile of the Acadians. She
was born in Thibodaux and raised speaking French.
She learned English in school later.
Joyce loves her heritage and speaks about it passionately.
She has written a cookbook, La Cuisine des Cajuns
sur le Bayou, full of Cajun cuisine including
gumbo, crawfish, stuffed crab, alligator sauce piquante,
jambalaya, etc. You may buy a copy so you can cook
for your friends.
Frank, also an Acadian, comes from a family of seventeen
children. It is easy to see why he enjoys having people
near him! He is retired from a naval construction
site and now enjoys his free time. He is always in
a good mood and ready to help you. He is also an avid
fisherman and loves to fish near the gulf of Mexico.
