Smorgasberg, Brooklyn




Saturday was beautifully warm, so we headed to Brooklyn


where all the young people are as well as lots of food.


At Smorgasberg you can eat yourself silly in the open air. We had pizza and porchetta sandwiches.


The vendors were cheerful; the mini cheesecakes delicious.



These were so small that they couldn't possibly be fattening.


All sorts of other baked goods


then a teeny tiny exquisite  Moroccan pastilla from Nadia's Kitchen where I got to use my  few words of Arabic. 


Candy samples too....


and fish and Mexican food.


So after all that, nice to sit in the sun


and look at the river


and chat


and wait for the ferry.
