San Gennaro, Little Italy


The Feast of San Gennaro is always fun in an overwhelming sort of way. All these photos taken on Mulberry Street.


Lots and lots of tasteful t-shirts


and piles and piles of sausage and onions and peppers


and gelato.


Here the sugar is about to be sprinkled on the fried batter. 
Flour sugar and grease. Impossible not to like.


How very RED everything is!


These vendors are a bit more low key. I think they are selling nougat.


Betty Boop looks more willing to help.


As well as all the food, there are games to play. The prizes would delight a five year old.

The central character in the  cigar shop window is really rather alarming.


I think he might have jaundice.



So we decide to sit and have lunch.


It would not be wise to steal this young man's snacks.


Caffe Roma for dessert


which is a respite from the swirling street.


We end on a sweet note.
