She was in costume and on her way to a Purim party. <br />Not fooled into thinking I was also celebrating (my distinctly scots-Irish features giving me away) we rode several stops together whilst she told me about Purim tradition. <br />Seems she is a chef at a kosher French (imagine that!) resturant in Brooklyn, the name of which escapes me, but which I will definitely have to find on one of my trips up here. <br />As with many of my stories, there is no point, I just wanted to share.K-ninehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04620527027397678900noreply@blogger.com
