* Fred's Breakfast of New Hope
Fred's Breakfast club in utopian village of New Hope, Pennsylvania on the scenic banks of the Delaware River (about 5 miles north of where George Washington's army crossed on their way to the Battle of Trenton) is NOW OPEN in the tradition of L'Ordre de Bon Temps - The Order of Good Times, but without the necessity of speaking Creole French, at least we don't think so, anyway (ask anyone).  Membership key costs $10 bucks (their cost) for now and IF YOU SIT IN THE BLACK CHAIR YOU MUST TEND THE FIRE!!! Observe the not terribly odious rules and be sure to leave grumpys at the door (in the designated place).  Application is here >> membership is limited to LOCALS ONLY so  remember to LIE if you're not from New Hope, Solebury or Lambertville.  You won't be the first as we're pretty sure the whole thing about George Washington's cherry tree is a complete fabrication.
