    The pumpkin bread was very good, and will try the peanut brittle next trip. The gift shop has something for everyone, and the quiet serenity of the courtyard and the chapel are very soothing, even to non-Catholics. The nuns in this order are cloistered, so you're not supposed to see them. However, we saw two nuns in the gift shop, though they might have been visitors from another location. If you're feeling troubled, and need a few moments of peace and comfort in the middle of the city, I highly recommend you visit this little monastery.
