Pomegranate molasses, salad with local blue goat cheese and North Star Orchard pears, perfectly grilled hogfish, gin and tonics with two superlative gins (Hayman's Old Tom and Martin Miller's), great conversation on everything from the infamous "Butcher" album cover to the perils of getting sick in Phnom Penh adds up to one absolutely magical and memorable evening in Embreeville with old -- or, rather, longstanding -- friends. Thank you, Bob and Carol, for your hospitality!
Sources: the pomegranate molasses is available at Wegman's (of course), many of the fresh goodies were purchased at the West Chester Growers' Market, North Star Orchard is in Cochranville, the Beatles' "Yesterday and Today" album with the original gory cover is available online for a pretty penny, and the hogfish was from Gadaleto's in West Chester.
