CAYA; A Midsummer Howl!

Dear Lost Souls,

The midsummer full moon is upon us! ... and what better way to celebrate the abundance of the season than to have a healthy howl at our celestial cousin . . . frosty adult beverage in hand, and in the excellent companionship of your fellow Haberdites? Once again, the Haberdashery's weekly communion offers you a bit of repose from the phrenetic pace of the season, and invites you to enjoy the fluid fruits of labor from our doting resident alchemists . . . patiently standing by to satisfy your every cocktail whim*.

Yes, my Solar Sensates, Cocktail Hour in on for this Friday evening. Cocktails will be served starting at 7:30pm. Please feel free to swing by for a quickie en route to your primary Friday evening lunar homage … or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,

CAYA; A Midsummer Night's Overture

Dear Lost Souls,

'It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that sting' ... I mean swing ... or shake ... or stir ...

In any event, CAYA hit the ground running last week with an impressive turnout of loyal Haberdashery stalwarts and fresh new faces ... and a good time was had by all! This week we will extend our streak to two ... with another midsummer night's dream of quality fellowship, live music, lofty rhetoric, and handcrafted cocktails conceived and executed by our steadfast band of steely alchemists. (note: no alchemists were executed in the production of this evening's event)

Yes, my Theoretical Thespians, CAYA in on for this evening. Cocktails will be served at 7.30pm. As always, please feel free to stop by and enjoy a brief mellifluous overture en route to your evening's Main Event . . . or to linger indefinitely until the grand finale.

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA; A Midsummer's Night Martini

Lovers and madmen have such seething brains
Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend
More than cool reason ever comprehends.
                                             ― Billy Shakespeare

Dear Lost Souls,

Let thy cool reason be the stones that chill the dusty olive of your dry Martini . . . and so to toast with abandon thy fellow Lovers and Madmen sweet beneath the velvet shade of the the Haberdashery's eclectic wishing stars . . . where fantasies abound and Comprehension stares longingly from behind the Medusa Buddha, nostalgic for the bliss she once knew before cold reason gently touched her lips and erased the unbounded joy of childhood innocence.

Yes my Bashful Bards! Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening . . . with the special promise of a visit from a world class violinist, joining the Haberdashery house band . . . to help doodle and fiddle the night away! So bring your kettle, axe, and ivory keys to play your part in yet another stirring tale of frosted goblets carrying Cosmopolitan goddesses and Manhattan scoundrels . . . singing glad songs and offering a welcoming embrace, from a familiar face at your favorite Last Resort!

Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary Theatre of the Absurd . . . or to linger indefinitely.

Yours!
Los Cabañeros

Come As You Are - A Midsummer's Night Drink

Dear Lost Souls,

Summer is rushing by and our fickle sun has begun its slow decent in the evening sky. Let not the opportunity pass to revel in one of our long Berkeley summer evenings; toasting the passing of our weekly toils with the ethers of cherished vices.
Yes, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday night. And as always, you are invited to partake of our special brand of alchemy and fellowship as we debate the profundity of the absurd. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your chosen Friday venue, or to linger indefinitely . . .
Yours,
greg
