CAYA; Why So Sour?

Dear Lost Souls,

Has the work week got you down? Does the heat and dust of your proverbial coal mine have your craving something lite, crisp and refreshing? Well, grab your sweet Canary, put on your party dress and come on by the Haberdashery for one of or signature Sours . . . an alchemical masterpiece, shaken to a balanced rhythm, chilled to metaphysical perfection, poured with deep caring, and garnished with a sprig of verdant joy from the Haberdashery's own organic urban garden. Thirsty yet?

CAYA; The Delusion of Balance & the Balance of Delusion

Dear Lost Souls,

Day & night. Sun & moon. Dark & light. The Equinox. This now is the delicate balance of the spheres . . . that we presumptuously label and 'precisely' measure with the mathematical contrivances of a god complex hardwired into our timeless quest to understand an inevitably ephemeral existence. The blind folly of countless 'enlightened' individuals, multiplied times the unchecked propagation of a species that misinterprets its gross shortsightedness . . . manifest in the rapid destruction of our isolated and fragile terrestrial biosphere . . . for celestial wisdom and the delusion of enlightened self determination. Better perhaps, that we simply toast the rare majesty of another day, and not presume to peer behind the opaque curtain of a heavenly clockwork, or naively pretend to work the levers of the fates. Would that we serve each precious moment on this earth up and neat, without the garnish of distractions that cloud the clarity of purest alchemy that brought us naked to this day.

Yes, my Pernicious Primates, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7.30pm. As always, please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary Friday evening tête-à-tête . . . or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA; Out of the Dust . . . Rise Fountains of Effervescent Joy

Dear Lost Souls,

Sound the celestial trumpets . . . bang the ceremonial drums . . . rattle glad tambourines! We have returned from a whirling tempest of desiccation and sweat-fueled chaos . . . and have now arrived at another day of music and rejoicing in the Haberdashery's Sacred Hall! On this occasion, after much contemplation and careful planning, the Haberdashery Board has invested in a Soda Stream . . . oh yeah! Grueling initial trials and testing have been hugely successful, all indicators are green, and this evening will be the first full battle testing of this space-age advancement in corporal and spiritual refreshment. Our Cabañeros are poised and ready to unleash the Kraken. Don't miss the excitement!

Yes, my
Effervescent Evangelicals, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7.30pm. As always, please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary Friday evening Dance Across the Universe . . . or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,
Los Cabañeros
