This is what was served for the First Friday Fellowship at the Custom House Maritime Museum located in Newburyport MA. It is an event that occurs on the first Friday of the month; 12 months of the year. The food is based on the port of call of ships that arrive in this historic town. There is also a lecture or event that happens after people have gotten a chance to try the food. The food is prepared by Sheila Kataria Mullins; a member of the museum and a personal cook.
It was one of the few events that did not have a lot of people show up; therefore, I got a chance to eat some of the left overs. I usually have to take other peoples word on how good it was. I have not heard anyone (yet?) say anything bad about it.
Cajun Artichoke Balls.
This was very good.
Cajun Corn Sausage (IIRC)
This was a good mixture. Despite the name, it wasn't spicy hot but spicy flavorful.
Cajun Deviled Eggs
This was a tasty variation of deviled eggs. It was not hot but flavorful.
Chocolate Bourbon Pie
This was sweet and very tasty. It was not easy to eat only a few. There were many coming back for thirds and fourths.
Marinated Shrimp
This was really good. I was surprised there was some leftover and also grateful that there was some leftover. I got to enjoy it.
After the food was served and enjoyed, there was a performance. Two ladies dressed in historic garb read from a diary of that time period. It was a job well done.
These are the ladies who did the performance. I think their outfits are really well done.
I think they did an excellent job in portraying those in the diary that they read.
Here they are performing on the stage in the main room in upper floor of the museum. There were many in attendance; some were standing just outside the room.
