LAGNAIPPE - IN NEW ORLEANS, WHERE I SPENT MUCH OF MY TIME IN THE 1970s AND EARLY 80s WITH POETS, WRITERS AND ARTISTS - THEY USE THE CAJAN WORD "LAGNAIPPE' TO MEAN "SOMETHING EXTRA" AND SO IT IS - - - the following pages are created for my grandchildren - to inspire them to use their many talents and to show them how much fun you can have with your hands - even when you think you have no talent. I have never had an art lesson in my life, in any genre, and look at the fun I have had. So enjoy yourselves. Don't forget to e-mail me your pictures. I love you, Grandma Nancy
