Since it has a four letter name, I got confused. Plus Down House's name has NO zing..........<br /><br />I cringe at the new names of restaurants in Houston. A few that come to mind. Oxheart, Underbelly, and one or two I can't remember - which is the point. THEY should be working with someone to come up with memorable names. It IS part of the important marketing strategy necessary when you have 14,000<br />competitors.....Babshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609157345912932083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-49004288626491024252013-06-02T20:16:35.986-05:002013-06-02T20:16:35.986-05:00I might have passed on the correction except that ...I might have passed on the correction except that there is a new place named Local Pour [have not been there] and did not want anyone to be confused.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01151841159315842099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-45141368962356039612013-06-02T19:26:42.332-05:002013-06-02T19:26:42.332-05:00Dan, I've tried to eat salads at times or not ...Dan, I've tried to eat salads at times or not eaten all meals in order not to look like a blimp when I go home.......back to the gym when I get there, that's for sure!Babshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609157345912932083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-78154383522704967322013-06-02T19:25:46.250-05:002013-06-02T19:25:46.250-05:00Calypso, you KNOW I always try to have fun......Calypso, you KNOW I always try to have fun......Babshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609157345912932083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-84380183478367492482013-06-02T19:24:54.278-05:002013-06-02T19:24:54.278-05:00Unknown - aka Bob corrected me and he is so correc...Unknown - aka Bob corrected me and he is so correct, we were at the Down House which was the name of Darwin's home, if I remember correctly.
