Thursday, April 10, 2008. I'M FAMOUS.BUY ME A DRINK. One thing I recently realized is that acclaim has nothing to do with wealth, or even stability. While we cease to simply be a village shop, drawing newfound clientele from as far away as Manhattan and Phillie, let alone New Brunswick and Princeton. While we continue to garner attention from internationally circulated periodicals ( The Guardian. The New York Times. And host lauded guests such as punk diarist Jim Carroll ( The Basketball Diaries.

But it also meant that mom would make homemade doughnuts, thick ropes of batter coiled into hot oil and then dusted with sugar, or apples and onions, both frontier recipes from the Little House Cookbook.
