Food Glorious Food (again)

Sunday Morning at Cafe du Monde

It had been such a long time

My heart leapt when I remembered the pure pleasure

There was no dignity in this act

No matter how careful I tried to be 

It always ended in a grand mess

Stains on my clothes

Telling the world what I had done

And yet
I just didn't care

This is what I was put on this Earth to do

 All the sounds around me faded out

The strange accents, the beat of the jazz trio

The clatter of dishes

In that moment
I was home

Me and my Beignet

The French Market in NOLA is the oldest public market in the country. There you will find Cafe du Monde and the dee-licious french doughnuts and cafe au lait. Not WeightWatchers-these babies are deep fried and covered with at least a cup of powdered sugar.
