IRISH BUT ‘FOLKSY’ DINNER NIGHT ON THE RIVER - Coffee on the River held a pre-St. Pat’s Day event Friday night in Lansing, Iowa, to the tunes of local musician Amanda Fahey, from New Albin. Amanda strummed and sang familiar and original tunes while diners sipped beverages and enjoyed salad, mashed taters and chef Wendi's version of a patty (paddy?) melt . . . No green beer but plenty of other libations. It was noted by Diana that a few years back Amanda was the first employee hired at this much appreciated restaurant. Diners joined Amanda in song to old favorite — “You Are My Sunshine.” You can hear a few bars here.
