BEACH & PERRY, CAPE MAY<br />
Page 12 EXIT ZERO November 9, 2023<br />
Every week, the Exit Zero crew goes for lunch (or dinner or,<br />
maybe even on occasion, breakfast) at one of Cape May’s excellent<br />
dining establishments. Then we give you the skinny on<br />
what we ate, what we talked about (or some of what we talked<br />
about), who spat their drink from laughing too hard, who served<br />
us, who we bumped into and, you know, the general lay of the land.<br />
The place: This week we’re highlighting where we’re drinking and<br />
we spent a few hours at Nauti Spirits Distillery last week. Their tasting<br />
room is at the end of their long gravel driveway off Shunpike Road. We<br />
were lucky, and you may be too depending on the time of year, to see<br />
the large field of sunflowers on your left — perfect spot to snap photos.<br />
The vibe: It was a Wednesday, so it wasn’t too busy, but the weather<br />
was beautiful, and Courtney, Kayla and Nicole grabbed a few chairs<br />
around a firepit. There were a couple of picnic tables filled with teachers<br />
having an afternoon out with pumpkin painting and team bonding.<br />
They purchased their pumpkins from the large bin that Nauti offers<br />
with a variety of sizes, another great spot to grab your gourds for the<br />
season. There were a couple of other firepits lit through the outdoor<br />
area, so as it got later, and chillier, we opted to light ours to keep warm<br />
for the remainder of the night. We brought some snacks to much on —<br />
Nauti doesn’t serve food so make sure to bring your own. Matt’s Family<br />
Food Truck is, however, there on weekends serving some delicious BBQ<br />
and some other tasty bites (Fri 4-8pm, Sat 1-8pm and Sun 1-6pm).<br />
The drinks: Nicole started with a Delaware Bay Breeze, her usual<br />
anytime she visit Nauti, with pineapple, cranberry, lime and Nauti<br />
vodka. Courtney and Kayla went for something spicy with the Sizzle<br />
Berry — Nauti’s jalapeno vodka with strawberry puree, ginger, lemon<br />
and club soda with a Tajin rim. Everyone went back for a second round<br />
but switched it up. We couldn’t pass up on the seasonal NO. 8 Cider —<br />
plundered #8 whiskey, spiced apple cider, orange and lemon. This was<br />
the afternoon’s highlight for sure, and we wished this wasn’t just a seasonal<br />
cocktail. I guess we’ll just have to make time to visit again before<br />
it’s gone, and you should, too!<br />
The takeaway: Nauti Spirits is open from 12pm Thursday-Sunday<br />
and from 2pm Monday-Wednesday. They have some fun events coming<br />
up including their Holiday Sip & Shop on November 25. Keep an eye<br />
on their socials to learn more about who’s participating!

Bird Droppings<br />
Dispatches from the nation’s birdwatching capital… by Seymore Thanu<br />
The Northern Hemisphere is slipping<br />
inexorably into winter. Birds<br />
are nature’s heralds, and bringing a<br />
bird watcher is to be a witness and<br />
participant. Being familiar with the<br />
seasonal slide into winter, wife Linda and I<br />
take the pulse of that slide by what we see and<br />
don’t see. She took the hummingbird feeder<br />
down because she hadn’t seen one in a week.<br />
Neither have I, but western strays are possible<br />
through November.<br />
But Linda and I are most interested in<br />
the normal order of things, not the odd-ball<br />
occurrence. To us nature is affirming and confirming.<br />
Something to turn to and count on<br />
when the rest of the world is going all to hell.<br />
Republicans in Congress can’t govern?<br />
Middle East erupts in horror, the natural<br />
world can be counted upon to be business as<br />
usual, an affirming picture of calm in a gallery<br />
of chaos. On the river Ring-billed Gulls now<br />
outnumber Laughing gulls. It’s the changing<br />
of the guard as summer gulls leave and winter<br />
gulls arrive.<br />
Yesterday morning a dozen Black Ducks<br />
were heading upriver to feed just as one thousand<br />
Fish Crows were heading south out of<br />
their roost. This is our typical winter pattern<br />
and it is unfolding punctually. Any day now,<br />
White-throated Sparrows will flood our yard.<br />
This, too, is predictable and affirming.<br />
Birders are never out of step with the universe.<br />
No matter how crazy the world gets, all<br />
I need to do is take a walk, drink in the sights<br />
and sounds of the season and I am anchored.<br />
On 9-11 I was leading a birding workshop<br />
in Cape May. The morning after the<br />
towers fell, I met my group at Cape May Point<br />
State Park. Ten Americans away from home<br />
in shock over the attack upon our values and<br />
our soil. Donning the mantle of leader, I said:<br />
“I know we’re all hurting this morning,<br />
but whenever my life takes a hit, I turn to the<br />
natural world for solace. I suggest we do it,<br />
let nature do her job.” So we started down the<br />
trails. It didn’t solve the world’s troubles, but<br />
it soothed us.<br />
No matter how confused the human<br />
world gets, nature can be counted upon to<br />
offer an antidote to human travail.<br />
The government shuts down? The leaves<br />
fall anyway. Nature doesn’t go on strike —<br />
hawks will continue to migrate past the hawk<br />
watch all through November just as they do<br />
every fall. It is comforting and affirming.<br />
So, yes, the hummingbirds have gone.<br />
Bad news? No, just the opposite. The universe<br />
is right on schedule.<br />

The Movie Column<br />
By guest columnist Will Rodebaugh, III<br />
The tossed salads and scrambled eggs<br />
are “calling again” after 19 years. The<br />
iconic show Frasier is back with star<br />
Kelsey Grammer as Frasier Crane,<br />
a celebrity psychotherapist who<br />
gives people wisdom but does not always<br />
have answers for himself. For 11 seasons<br />
(1993-2004) the original, a spinoff from the<br />
long-running sitcom Cheers, offered memorable<br />
TV moments. One favorite is when<br />
Frasier’s brother, Niles (David Hyde Pierce),<br />
comes to a Halloween party dressed as their<br />
father, Martin (John Mahoney). At the party,<br />
laughs ultimately go fascinatingly serious for<br />
a moment before springing back to humor.<br />
Who can forget when Frasier tried to create<br />
a theme song for his radio show, and it<br />
ended up being a two-minute opera complete<br />
with a full orchestra? Or the time when Frasier<br />
is determined to win chess against his father<br />
Martin, a more rough-and-tumble character.<br />
In Frasier 2023, Frasier is the only character<br />
from the original series to appear. Other<br />
stars from the original will return in an episode<br />
or two, but for now the rest the cast<br />
is all new — or is it. Frasier’s son, Freddy<br />
(Jack Cutmore-Scott), factors in more in the<br />
new show. He essentially takes the blue-collar<br />
place of the Martin character, having dropped<br />
out of Harvard and begun work as a firefighter.<br />
Niles and wife Daphne (Jane Leeves)<br />
are not in the show; however, their son, David<br />
(Anders Keith), joins Uncle Frasier as the two<br />
return to Boston. David has a striking resem-<br />
blance to Niles, so it’s like those characters<br />
never left.<br />
In the new series, Frasier returns to<br />
Boston after a celebrity career on television<br />
(we catch glimpses of this only in flashbacks,<br />
which are hilarious). His goal is to give a guest<br />
lecture in the class of his close friend from<br />
Harvard Alan Cornwall (Nicholas Lyndhurst).<br />
While in town, he checks on Freddy. Sure, the<br />
reunion is tenuous, but Frasier tries his best<br />
to help his son work through some issues he’s<br />
having — whether Freddy wants it or not.<br />
This reboot perfectly reminds us that<br />
when we feel overwhelmed by the challenges<br />
of the world there should always be someone<br />
we can lean on. When some of those people<br />
aren’t there anymore, others can easily<br />
take their place. Martin living on through his<br />
grandson, Freddy, or Niles through his son<br />
David are completely organic… sometimes,<br />
family members have uncanny resemblances!<br />
This reboot so far has painted a beautiful story<br />
of characters reuniting and working out their<br />
differences — like family.<br />

The Activity Column<br />
Catherine Dugan’s guide to getting out there... this week, treat yourself to a manicure!<br />
Follow an ancient tradition — treat<br />
yourself to some fancy fingernails.<br />
As early as 5000 BCE, women<br />
in India dipped their nails in henna.<br />
Male warriors around 3200 BCE<br />
included colored nails as part of their war<br />
paint. By 3000 BCE, Chinese women used<br />
crushed orchid and rose petals mixed with<br />
beeswax and egg whites to color their nails,<br />
but the time-consuming process was mainly<br />
reserved for royalty. For much of history,<br />
bleach was used to whiten nails, creating the<br />
illusion of high-status idleness. Around the<br />
15th century, the Incas decorated their nails<br />
with eagles to show their strength. By the<br />
19th century, French manicurists used tinted<br />
creams to shine nails, and American Mary<br />
Cobb Pray brought the French techniques to<br />
Manhattan in 1878.<br />
“Mrs. Pray’s Manicures” treated women<br />
to the ‘soak, cut, shape, polish’ system that<br />
remains the procedure for a simple manicure.<br />
She charged $1.25, almost $40 in today’s<br />
dollars. Her company also created the emery<br />
board and, by 1900, sold a simple form of<br />
home polish — a tinted cream that you rubbed<br />
into your nails and buffed to a shine. In 1916,<br />
Cutex introduced clear nail lacquer, and in<br />
the 1920s, colored lacquer was mass produced,<br />
thanks in part to advancements in<br />
the auto industry and the development of<br />
nitrocellulose. In 1928 Cutex made nail lacquer<br />
remover safe for home use, thus making<br />
it practical for people to do their own nails.<br />
In 1932, Revlon introduced nail polish, and<br />
colored nails became an affordable luxury.<br />
In the 1970s, the number of nail salons in the<br />
United States exploded. In the 1980s and 90s,<br />
artists like Janet Jackson and Coko sparked<br />
trends in complex nail art and Uma Thurman’s<br />
blood red “Pulp Fiction” nails caused a sellout<br />
of Chanel’s “Rouge Noir.” Nail art had entered<br />
the mainstream.<br />
Current nail trends are diverse, from<br />
“Barbie” pink to “Wednesday Addams” black.<br />
There are velvet nails, bubble nails, galaxy<br />
swirls, and latte nails. Gel and dip nails last<br />
longer than traditional polish, though removal<br />
is complex. “Clean” nail polishes promise<br />
style without toxic chemicals. Doing your<br />
nails at home has never been easier and even<br />
press-on nails have improved to the point of<br />
respectability.<br />
Enjoy a manicure at a traditional salon<br />
like Eternity (609-435-5775) or Halo (609-<br />
884-0504). Or, add a nail treatment to your<br />
beauty routine at Accent on Beauty (609-<br />
884-7040) or Evolution (609-889-6900).<br />

The Answer Lady invites inquiries from<br />
gentle readers on all manner of relationship<br />
quandaries, matters of the<br />
heart and ethics. If you’d like to send<br />
a query, write to info@exitzero.us. Or,<br />
simply sit back, enjoy a cup of coffee and contemplate<br />
the wisdom herein.<br />
Dear Answer Lady<br />
My husband and I separated over the<br />
summer. It has been very amicable, and I<br />
expected to be invited to his parents’ house<br />
for Thanksgiving, but “Pete” said it wouldn’t<br />
be appropriate. I don’t see why. I was very<br />
close to his family long before we married.<br />
We lived next door to each other growing up.<br />
“Pete” says separating was my idea and I can’t<br />
“have it both ways.” I want to reach out to his<br />
parents and ask them, but my mother agrees<br />
with “Pete.” My family have all moved away<br />
and I feel I have nowhere to go. What do you<br />
think? — Dissed<br />
Dear Dissed<br />
What is wrong with you? Of course, you<br />
are not welcomed, especially at Thanksgiving.<br />
The Answer Lady<br />
Wise answers to perplexing questions<br />
The fact that you would even consider calling<br />
HIS family and inviting yourself says more<br />
about you than it does “Pete.” Get a grip. Call<br />
the Washington Inn and order yourself a<br />
Thanksgiving dinner to-go. Invite some close<br />
friends who are in a similar situation or looking<br />
for an excuse to NOT spend Thanksgiving<br />
with family and start your new life on the right<br />
foot. Or consider a reconciliation with “Pete.”<br />
And not just for the holidays.<br />
Dear Answer Lady<br />
A man I dated 20 years ago was “stalking”<br />
me on Facebook to reconnect. He lives in<br />
Pennsylvania. I live in Cape May. I figured,<br />
what the heck, I have no one else in my life right<br />
now. He booked a room at La Mer. We had a<br />
romantic dinner at The Pier House and spent<br />
a very nice night together. Next day we played<br />
a round of golf at Cape May National and he<br />
went on his way with the promise of getting<br />
together again before the month’s end. Then,<br />
crickets. I did discover during his visit that he<br />
is married. Should I call? — Alone Again<br />
Dear Alone<br />
Oh honey. His wife found out. Or plagued<br />
by a guilty conscience, he confessed. Or got<br />
scared about what a divorce would cost him.<br />
At any rate — good riddance. Why would you<br />
call? There is no future in this, and the sex is<br />
meh. Do yourself a solid and book and exorcise<br />
this jerk with an appointment at Cape May<br />
Day Spa. Get the Fall Refresher. Skip the<br />
Fall Rendezvous for Two. Then write a list of<br />
priorities you are looking for in a relationship.<br />

ARIES is a large boy who was came to the<br />
shelter when his owners could no longer keep<br />
him. Once he is comfortable, he loves socializing<br />
and attention. Tennis balls are Aries’<br />
favorite toys and loves to play fetch. His leash<br />
skills are improving and he already responds<br />
well to “sit.” Aries would be best in an adult<br />
home as the only pet in the house.<br />
SPIKE is a 69-pound boy who came to the<br />
shelter when his owner could no longer care<br />
for him. He may look serious, but he lights up<br />
when he sees people. Spike loves to snuggle<br />
and is learning proper behavior cues with his<br />
leash skills improving daily. He should be the<br />
only pet in the house due to his size and live<br />
with a family who has older children.<br />
COOPER is a sweet and lovable boy who lived<br />
with a family for two years, but they can no<br />
longer take care of him. He is a 115-pound boy,<br />
and his leash skills are improving daily, but<br />
he loves to explore his surroundings. Cooper<br />
would be better suited for a family with older<br />
children as he tends to be protective of his<br />
family.<br />

Three beautiful cats from the Cape May County Animal Shelter and Adoption Center... call 609-465-8923<br />
ROYCE was a part of a small colony of cats a<br />
senior citizen was feeding. He and his siblings,<br />
Aston and Porsha, were brought to the shelter<br />
to be domesticated. They are a very social<br />
bunch looking for a new home to take them in.<br />
Royce is great with other cats and is an indoor<br />
cat. If interested in meeting this young boy,<br />
contact the shelter.<br />
PORSHA and her brothers came to the shelter<br />
when the senior citizen feeding them brought<br />
them in to be domesticated. The group are<br />
in need of a loving home in which they can<br />
play and be cared for. Porsha is an indoor cat<br />
and does well with other cats and children. If<br />
interested in meeting this sweet lady, contact<br />
the shelter.<br />
ASTON is part of the trio that includes Porsha<br />
and Royce who came to the shelter to be<br />
domesticated. He and his siblings are very<br />
playful and would do well in a home with<br />
other cats and children. They are all up to<br />
date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered. If<br />
interested in meeting Aston and his siblings,<br />
contact the shelter.<br />
