The River.......House, that is. And fine bovine.

Listened to Bruce Springsteen's "The River" on the way to work this morning. It's a wonderful and painful coming-of-age song. Really, it's just what you need before a big day at PP!

"We went down to the riverrrrrrr...

and into the river we'd dive

Ohhhhh, down to the river, we'd ride iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii"

Thank you. On Saturday nights, I take requests.

Anyway, that was a rather clumsy albeit heartfelt segue to the lovely photos of the holy-smacks-about-to-open River House at Lowndes Grove.

So, I don't know if you gleaned this from recent posts, but we (Fish) bought a cow from Cordray's in Ravenel. These fine folks have been producing quality beef since 1907, without using chemicals, hormones or byproduct-based feeds. I can't tell you how many times over the past few months I've asked Nico about the "cow situation" and he would just answer, "Nope, not yet." Well dear friends, the beef is here. Actually, the beef was in the tomato provencal at the Chef's Potluck. And will soon be wow-ing you in upcoming specials.
