Come As You Are; Up Yours, 2016!

Dear Lost Souls,

It is not at all easy to find a list of good things that happened in 2016. In fact, probably the best thing to happen is that it is almost over! Be that as it may . . . Thanks to you all, the Haberdashery has enjoyed another excellent year of outstanding fellowship, good cheer, excellent food, and quality cocktails ... and the piece of mind that comes from knowing that there is always a warm, friendly sanctuary waiting for you on the road just ahead; at the end of another week in the proverbial coal mines. On this, our last CAYA of the year, we invite you to once again join us for a moment of repose beneath the comforting shade of low expectations as we toast the end of 2016 and look forward to the promise of 2017!

Yes, my Tempestuous Time Travelers, Cocktail Hour in on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to drop by en route to your primary evening's festivities … or to linger indefinitely.  

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

Come As You Are; The Peaceful Dreamlike Transition of Power

Dear Lost Souls,

You find us speechless. But I trust you will agree that we could all use a healthy size adult beverage to help ease us into our first weekend contemplating the eminent transition of power to our new Commander and Chief Orange-atang. Perhaps we will wake up on Saturday to discover that this was all just a reality TV hoax ... but I'm thinkin' perhaps not at this point. God bless America.
