Mmmm, cannolis.

We have a great little Italian market nearby, that makes great cannolis. It's pretty much lifted straight from the streets of NY, here to the ATL 'burbs.

One of the standard greetings from one of the guys taking orders is "Whadda YOU want!?"

I love it.

Oh Lawd, that looks just wonderful, as do the other links here as well.

(sigh)

At one point last year I was within an inch of ordering some deluxe stainless Cannoli forms and learning to make them myself, but then 'life' got in the way of my cunning plans, as it often does.

I suppose I should stop moaning and just order some by mail, and I probably will, as well as some of that incredible-looking cheesecake.

I still need to experience the full effect, however, which involves having a beautiful Italian lady make it right before my eyes  "sigh"

With that I had better hit the sack, as 6 AM comes awfully early.

You folks have fun :-)   "waving"

Junior's is interesting. Where else can you see six ConEd guys sitting across from a gangster rapper at a table over from two guys from Goldman Sachs who are borrowing the creamer from a couple of low-level Brooklyn politicos?

When 'Sonny' and 'Vinnie' come in to your store and tell you that "things could get ugly", it's always a good idea to whack 'em right then.

You could also whack the next group of guys that pay you a visit (to find out what happened to Sonny and Vinnie), but something tells me that this would not go on for too many iterations.

Either not enough coffee yet, a senior senior moment or I'm just clueless, but I don't recognize them. The one on the right in the hat is vaguely familiar though.

"Mafia Staff Car"


Out here in L.A. a while back they arrested some "bookies" that were connected to a mob family back east. When they were towing their cars I noticed bumper stickers that said, "Mafia Staff Car" and the other one, "You toucha my car, I breaka u face"


...classic!

Like I said, clueless. Back then I only knew 'of' them.
The guy in the hat is still gnawing at my brain though.

"who arranged a sitdown with two other gangsters at the Hooters restaurant..."

Did they sing "Ogle while you work...Ogle while you work..."
