No CAYA This Week

Dear Lost Souls,

There will be no Cocktail Hour this week at The Haberdashery . . . but of course we will be toasting all of our cherished Haberdite Family everywhere, wishing you all a very Happy Holidays and a bountiful New Year ... and we invite you to do the same! 

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA - 🎄🎄🎄 Already? 😳

Dear Lost Souls,

It seems yesterday that we were celebrating like champions the arrival of 2018, and in the blink of an eye, it’s already time to deal with Holiday parties all over again. ’Tis the season already, and when it comes to celebrate, we are certainly not the ones backing up. So come join us to light up our candelabrum of friendship, roll our spinning top of dreams, and share a cup of good cheer.

Yes, my Punch Drinking Ne'er-do-wells, Cocktail Hour is on for tonight! Please join returning or soon to be leaving Haberdites at the crossroads of hopes and good intentions. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your evening's Holiday party, or on your way back from your company’s way to keep you happy, and linger indefinitely.

Yours,

CAYA - A Season for Gratitude

Dear Lost Souls,

After a Thanksgiving Holiday hiatus, The Haberdasherywants to take a moment to thank Haberdites near and far for their continued loyalty and generous contributions to our scrappy band of dreamers and ne'er-do-wells. This week we will be hoisting a special toast of gratitude for all of our collective good fortune and the blessing we share. Please grace us with your presense if you can!

Come As You Are; A Place to Zoom Out ...

Dear Lost Souls,

Zooming out tens of thousands of feet can usually offer enough cognitive dissonance for some peaceful perspective. But the gods are dubious in their tossing of lots and liberal in the magnitude of the chaos that they sow. NorCal's smoking veil of tears shares the news cycle with yet another senseless mass shooting in SoCal, a national state of affairs fueled by fabricated division and unhinged aggression, and mounting international unrest exasperated by a planetary ecological house of cards.

But behold ... there is relief on the near horizon. We invite you to zoom in on West Berkeley ... WeBe in the Five and Dime... where The Haberdashery endeavors to offer a bit of weekly refuge for your tattered soul;  a hand-crafted cocktail, a tasty home brew, live music, cozy atmosphere, and some easy fellowship shared beneath our eclectic wishing stars.

Yes, my Intrepid Interlocutors, Cocktail Hour is on for this evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to wander on by for a quickie en route to your evening's primary destiny, or to linger indefinitely.

Come As You Are; Witches, Gremlins & Goblins

Dear Lost Souls,

In this scariest of seasons, we are hounded by the dark forces that linger in the nebulous ether between reality and fantasy ... endlessly taunted by the witches, goblins, and gremlins, that thrive in this atmosphere of duplicity, fueled by the noxious fear and hate that threatens to engulf us all. But once again, The Haberdashery offers you a moment of repose with our weekly communion of easy fellowship and simple repose. Come find a new friend, sing a new song, and (at least for an evening) relegate the toxicity of election season to the cold darkness beyond our hallowed walls, while we warm our hearts in the company of more gentle muses.

Yes, my Serene Spirits, Cocktail Hour is on for this evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to swing by for a quickie en route to your evening's primary haunting, or to linger indefinitely ... or at least until Tuesday.

Come As You Are; Take a Break From the Hate

Dear Lost Souls,

As the national dialogue spirals out of control and our news cycles continue to be dominated by divisive politics, culture wars, and escalating violence, there sometimes seems no place to turn for relief. So, let us turn inward ... at least for an evening ... and take a break from the caustic rhetoric to spend some simple time in easy fellowship and merry making with our fellow Haberdites. So, Come As You Are, invite a loved one, bring an instrument, leave your frustration at the bottom of the stoop, and come experience a bit of repose; Haberdashery style. Let love reign.

Yes, my Sirens of Serenity, Cocktail Hour is on for this evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to swing by for a quickie en route to your evening's primary soiree, or to linger indefinitely.

Dear Lost Souls,

'Overwhelmed by the insanity of the season? 'Trying desperately to cope with the deluge of mixed messages with which you are being inundated? We know how you feel ... Indian Summer can be a confusing and difficult time for Solar Empathsand Haberditesalike ... as the days shorten and Summer inevitably gives up the ghost to Autumn's spartan reign.

But fear not! The Haberdasherywill not let this midterm transition distract us from our weekly constitution ... providing a safe harbor for you to find shelter from the cold, warm yourself with one of our custom crafted cocktails, and share some fellowship under CAYA's eclectic wishing stars, languishing in the comforting shade of low expectations.

CAYA; Autumn's Reign

Dear Lost Souls,

Even in this challenging times with a temporarily vacant seat on the bench of the Supreme Court of the Haberdashery, as one of our Cabaña Boys travels halfway through the world for family shenanigans, you know you can (almost) certainly count on your weekly celebration of silliness. And while we expect for this seat to be filled  again tomorrow, we will strive tirelessly to make your Friday evening the most enjoyable possible.

This week we will celebrate the exclusivity of our privileged clique that gathers weekly under the protecting roof of the Haberdashery, with a coded message that only the initiated will be able to crack. Like a devil’s triangle can become under oath a quarters game with 3 glasses, don’t be surprised if the message doesn’t make any sense to you. But here’s what you can expect tonight:
“O’live all as cool an a”. 

Yes, my Gluttonous Ralph Club Members, CAYA is on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served starting at 8:00pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quick solution to the code, or to linger indefinitely in the crown jewel of your Friday night options for leisure.

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA; Equilibrium in the Cosmos

Dear Lost Souls,

Experientially front loaded and accelerating towards the infinity, summer's progression culminates in this spectacular climax of cosmic equilibrium; dark and light, distance and time, inclination and eccentricity . . . the celestial mechanics of our little blue spaceship, so beautifully combined with its Goldilocks astrophysical disposition ... facilitating our unique evolution and our thriving as a relatively higher life form. Please come help your fellow Haberdites tonight as we toast our collective good fortune and celebrate the passing of another glorious season.

Dear Lost Souls,

After leaders from all over the World met in the City this week to discuss about climate change and the future of our planet, we urge you to join us tonight in our weekly conversation about the future of our Friday night. Hurricanes may be making landfall in the East Coast, but the soothing climate of the Haberdashery will provide you a safe space to seek shelter from the unbearable problems of our own existence, like the frightening signs of the beginning of the Indian summer.

Dear Lost Souls,

Dough Dough and Pope are in town; fresh from their adventures delivering fresh wood-fired pizzas Deep Playa and exploring the dusty hollows of Black Rock City . . . and thirsty for the Haberdashery's special brand of soul-quenching fellowship and alchemical refreshment.

With dust on the horizon and another summer quickly slipping away, we gather once again to share a cup of good cheer and to give thanks for the abundant blessings to which we are all so privy.

CAYA; Behold The Blood Moon and Her Martian Mate

Dear Lost Souls,

Today Haberdites near and far will bare witness to a "Blood Moon" Eclipse; to reach full totality at 4.20pm Eastern time . . . with the bonus of Mars at its closest approach to Earth since August 27th of 2003. Accordingly, The Haberdashery's crack team of Astrologers and ne'er-do-wells has been not-so-carefully preparing for the deep significance of this astral alignment for 15 years ... muddling, shaking, stirring, and infusing meaning into the celestial musings of a capricious cosmos. To help celebrate, our supporting team of dedicated Alchemists are standing by to fulfill your ephemeral desires with an astral array of ruby-tinted hand-crafted elixirs born of fluid whimsy.

Yes, my Meandering Martians, CAYA is on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served starting at 7:30pm. Please feel free to join us for a quickie en route to the completion of your evening's established orbit ... or to linger indefinitely in the gravitational pull of our low expectations.

Dear Lost Souls,

July 14th is Bastille Day! ... la Fête nationale of France ... a midsummer watershed, and a reminder of humanity's universal drive to throw off the shackles of oppression and hold accountable oppressive regimes who would seek to supress the power of the human spirit. So let us toast the days of reckoning! ... the glory of Summer's splendor ... and the dedication and sacrifice of the individuals who have paved the way of mankind's struggle towards the ideals of universal liberty and justice. Let hope always shine bright above the darkest horizon!

Come Ye, and bare witness as Haberdites near and far celebrate the Rites of Spring. Let us all in these days of glorious rebirth:

• Wiggle Ye toes in Mother Earth's ocean sands, bathe in her welcoming waters, and receive the warm embrace of our nearest guiding star;

• Dance and sing with abandon, channeling the innocence of Ye articulate child within;

• Make love to the world, whether it be through the passionate embrace of a partner, or just a wanton romp through the lilies of the field;

• Bring Ye this night other Rites to share in abundance with your fellow Haberdites!

CAYA; The New Normal

Dear Lost Souls,

Outside of the Haberdashery’s protected sanctuary lies a world transformed; a world upside down; a world where the intangible ether of induced patterns of 1’s and 0’s can inflame hatred in the hearts of fundamentally decent human beings, and navigate whole societies to dash their fortunes against the jagged folly of political expediency and institutionalized ignorance. This new normal is a labyrinth of manipulations, strategies, and situational truths that rise on the destabilized foundations of every fact-seeking institution upon which we have depended as the watchdogs of our fragile democracy . . . 

But, behold! . . . the weekend is on the horizon. Now take a deep breath and step through the Haberdashery’s sonic threshold of technicolor twilight to find your place under the dappled shade and shadow of our eclectic wishing stars . . . and so find a solid foothold in the bedrock of a deeper truth … conjured from the exotic flavors of distant cuisine, manifest in a menagerie of greenery, cushions, and color, and animated by the souls of vagabond Haberdites, come to call.

Yes my Intrepid Interlocutors, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm . . . give or take a cocktail. Calling ye minstrels, who maintain the heartbeat of our melodic community. And please do not fret about stopping by for a quickie en route to your evening’s raison d'etre.

and chance a glimpse of our disproportionate good fortune

through the tinted lens of a fragile mortality,

that is when the sunshine of good health feels never warmer,

and we must each rejoice in the delight

of our peculiar arc across this precocious universe.

Yes, my Heliocentric Haberdites, Cocktail Hour is on for this evening. Come As You Are beginning at 7:30pm, and concluding in the eclectic twilight just beyond our collective whims.

Yours,

Los Cabañeros

CAYA; No Coctail Hour this Week

Dear Lost Souls,

The gods continue to conspire against us. There will be no cocktail hour this week, but we will very much hope to resume our weekly constitution next Friday.

Please enjoy your 4/20  celebrations and we will see you soon!

Biohazard! - No CAYA This Week

Dear Lost Souls,

Due to unforeseen disease, pestilence, biohazards, and reggae, there will be no cocktail hour this week.

Sorry, it's been a few weeks, but hey .... whataryagonnado??

Hoist one for us in our sick bed ... and we'll hope to be reunited with our Haberdite community soon!

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA - Holy Equinox Batman!

Dear Lost Souls,

In the blur that is the calendric contrivance of 2018, Spring has sprung! Now seriously, do you really need any other reason to celebrate with a custom crafted adult beverage of your choosing under The Haberdahsery's dappled shade and shadow?! And remember, only rookies ring the bell.

Yes, my Solar-powered Supplicants, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary rites of Spring, or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,

Los Cabañeros
