Also Economy Candy, thank God. All healthy. You make a good point -- she does have good taste. That's the thing -- I can't hate on her for being fake because she really isn't. She's just turned herself into a brand. A lot of people like that brand. And I'm one of them.

When I saw the title of the piece and the image of Shimmels, I thought you were going to tell me they'd closed. Land-O-Goshen, that would have sent me straight to my reward. To me, the moral of the story is that Martha has better taste than I imagined, she knows for what to give thanks, and she understands that she could kneed her little goyishe fingers to the bone, and she still can't hold a candle to the keeper of the knish.
