Week-end in Renaison!

I had a wonderful invitation to the home of family friends in Renaison, a lovely town about 2 hours north of Grazac.  Martine and Michel took me on a great tour of the area where we visited the town center and the beautiful church.  We also had an opportunity to visit the Musée Alice Taverne, an  extremely interesting museum concerning traditional rural life in the area during the second half of the 19th century.  Fully decorated rooms depicted life during that time including a school room, a store, a one-room farmhouse and the fascinating office interior of the "Robouteux" (a rural medicine man somewhere between an herbalist and a magician)!

Martine, a fantastic cook, made the week-end so perfect with wonderful meals she prepared using the best regional products.  Thank you again, Martine and Michel, for your warm and gracious hospitality!
