Babka, Borscht, Chopped Liver, Knish, Farfel, Schmaltz,, Blintz, and Challah. There’s something about old-time Jewish food that makes everyone smile. You don’t have to be Jewish to appreciate the memories of sinking your teeth into one of these delectable, comfort treats.
That’s the premise of a new coffee table book, my friend Aaron Rezny, is putting together with Jordan Schaps. Both are well-known photographers. The book features artistic photos of your favorite Jewish foods plus anecdotes from notable personalities.
Not everyone writing essays is Jewish. You just have to love the food. The two Jewish contributors who you will know are Joan Rivers and me. Oy vey, enough said.
What does this have to do with technology? Most of the communications for this book took place via email and texting. All of the requests, interviews, research, editing, and design was done online. Everyone worked independently and then pooled their efforts to achieve what Rezny and Schaps hope will be a keepsake. I will let you know when it goes on sale.
My story features the Charlotte Russe. You remember that?

Congrats on your chapter in “Eating Delancy”.
Mmmmmmm!
When I was a little girl my aunt Mary and Uncle George , two little people from Bensonhurst Brooklyn,both in wool coats got on the train, one with a pocketbook on one arm and bakery box on another. Uncle George always with a hat. In that box was Charlotte Russe.
Happy days. What a memory.

Oh my, Charlotte Russe, I remember them from Ebingers on Flatbush Ave in Brooklyn when I was 5 yrs. old. I loved them!
