Dear Lost Souls,
Happy Rosh Hashanah!
Oh my! . . . just when you thought it was safe to take off your party hats, the tribe has generously offered up a little Luuunar new year to bring your weekly toils in the coal mines to a satisfactory conclusion and launch the weekend! But, for those of us that are not tribe members . . . not to worry! . . . it’s also Maitresse Délai Day in Haiti!! . . . Amazing how fast that one rolls around! In case you’ve forgotten your Voodoo, Maîtresse Délai is the patron loa of tambourine players . . . so you don’t want to miss this chance to hoist a glass of some tropical concoction to toast Délai on her special day (tambourines are optional).
Yes indeed Haberdites! Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening! Last week ‘twaz not a fluke . . . but a flute; to Pied Pipe you out of your sanctuaries and come join us in the Haberdashery communal hall for our weekly covenant. The lights are dimmed, the glasses are chilled and the spirits swirl merrily in tapered vessels of joy. CAYA 2.0 is here to stay and you, as always, are invited to come join us for another evening of tasteful absurdity. Cocktails will be served at around 7:30pm, toasting Mlle Délai and ringing in the new lunar year.
As always, please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary Friday evening venue . . . or to linger indefinitely.
Yours,
Greg

Come As You Are - The Haberdashery 2.0ooooooh!
Dear Lost Souls,
Behold a new dawn! After five years of intense alchemical research on three continents . . . the testing of new variations of old favorites and old variations of new favorites . . . fearless forays into the indigenes spirits of faraway lands . . . the prophecies have been fulfilled. Rejoice, sound trumpets and sing merry hymns, as the gathering call goes out for YOUR prodigal return to the primal womb that bore the karmic fruit and garnishes of every creation that once weaned forth from the shaded refuge of the Haberdashery’s hallowed halls.
Yes!!, my thirsty brethren, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening . . . the first of many that lie ahead. The locality is new, but the hospitality has not changed, and the tireless Haberdashery Cabana Boyz still weald their honed weapons of alchemy to defend your right to fulfill your every cocktail dream. Joining the Boyz azz a resident shaker/strainer . . . Andy Levine has graduated from ‘occasional visitor’ to permanent host . . . and eagerly awaits the opportunity to demonstrate his prowess on the field.
This is not a drill Haberdites! . . . this is the real deal.
Soooo . . . to start a new era . . . you are invited to a LIMITED INVITATION event reserved for some of the oldest and loyalist of Haberdites, from near and far! Some of you will be in distant lands when, for the first time, we place our sacred buttocks on the Scarlet Chaise . . . but in our hearts you will be near, and we ask that you . . . wherever you are . . . hoist your cup in the direction of the new dawn on this Western shore. The festivities will start at approximately 7:00pm and continue until the whims of each of you have been fulfilled. As always, please feel to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary venue . . . or to linger indefinitely . . .
