Me: Walking on Bunche Beach. Suddenly there they were. “Can I take your picture?”
They : “Yes”..
Me: Snap the photo before they pose and ruin their photogenic charm. They are beautiful outside but beautiful inside as well, we suspect.

From Stephen Goldfinger. October, 2018 RE- POST:
In a local physical rehabilitation center. Two rehab therapists talking about the end of summer:
Female rehab therapist 1: You know, I stopped going to my beach this summer.
Female rehab therapist 2: What beach?
Female rehab therapist 1: My local beach in Long Branch. It’s ridiculous. They charge you by the hour to park your car. You want to lay out from ten to six, it’ll cost you almost twenty bucks! Forget that.
Female rehab therapist 2: So you mean you just stopped going to the beach?
Female rehab therapist 1: No, I went to Ocean Grove instead. They’ve got free parking, the beach is nicer, and plus they’ve got all those cute stores.
Female rehab therapist 2: Hey, that’s a good idea. I’ll have to remember that next summer.

Scene: Courtroom. Union County Superior Court. Presiding the Hon. Ross R Anzaldi.
Scenario: The judge had settled a divorce some time in the past, however the husband and wife appeared again this time because of a disagreement over a provision in the divorce agreement.
The judge heard the case and then went to his chambers to make a ruling. When he emerged he turned to the courtroom and said:
“It seems we stood and talked like this before. We looked at each other in the same way then. But I can’t remember where or when.”
Smiles around the courtroom. In case you don’t know, these are lyrics from the Rodgers and Hart 1937 hit “Where or When.”
And it is a true story. It is also true that Judge Anzaldi has a lyric for just about anything. And he is my oldest friend–can you tell?
DION AND THE BELMONTS . c. 1960. From their “Best of…” album.

Café Du Monde Coffee Stand in the French Quarter (c. 1862). Paul Goldfinger photograph on a Sunday morning, early. © Click to enlarge.
By Paul Goldfinger, Editor @Blogfinger
The French brought coffee to the New Orleans area around 1700. In the 1800’s, during a coffee shortage, chicory was added. The Cajuns came from Nova Scotia in the 19th century and brought beignets with them.
Café Du Monde on Decatur Street has been around for about 150 years. If you visit NO, you must visit the Café. It is open 24/7 and is always busy. The scene is livened by street musicians and characters.
The photo above is unusual, because there was only one person chowing down on a Sunday morning. I guess Saturday night on Bourbon Street took its toll.
The menu is very limited featuring beignets (donuts without a hole, served hot and covered with powdered sugar.) The coffee is dark roasted and served black or with milk (au lait). They also have hot chocolate and fresh squeezed orange juice.
