CAYA; Resolution Roundup

Dear Lost Souls,

Happy New Year Haberdashery style! Have you resolutely resolved your resolutions for the new year? ... and have you broken them yet? There is still time ...

Paving the road ahead with the permeable promises of our collective best intentions, we seek not to tempt you with the vices you so recently forsook ... but instead to provide you with a safe haven to ease back gently into the karmic cockpit of your ephemeral corporal carriage for yet another breakneck circuit through the celestial spheres. Come enjoy what remains of that 'fresh year smell' while quietly relegating the treachery of your former sins to tales of posterity ... so you can set your sights on the delicious temptations that the coming year has yet to promise ... and with which the Haberdashery is so well endowed.

Yes, my Nascent Nomads of 2016, Cocktail Hour is on for this evening. As it has always been ... and always shall be, cocktails will be served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to shhhwing on by for a quickie en route to your primary Friday evening Bon Ton ... or to linger deep into the New Year.

Yours,  

Los Cabañeros

CAYA 2015; Resolution Revolution Revisionism

Dear Lost Souls,

We stand at the dawn of a new era, washed clean of the myriad of passing sins that were born of the shortsightedness and folly that characterized the misguided judgements and poor decisions we made during 2014. Now, reborn in the fresh light of January optimism, we are invited to set a shining new course of excellence and virtue, free of every vice, immune to every temptation, and above all behaviors that so soiled the moral fabric of our souls over the last 12 months. On this, the second evening of our expansive new moral and temporal horizon, we Haberdites gather to celebrate what will surely be the purest, finest, and most exalted year in our oh-so brief passage across the terrestrial bridge of our ephemeral humanity.

Are you still with me? . . . Alternatively, we invite you come abandon those resolutions that you have not yet actually broken in the first 24 hours of 2015, kick up your heals, and enjoy one of our handcrafted cocktails . . . prepared by one of the Haberdashery's own highly trained Alchemical Savants . . . and mixed from the rare and delicate elixirs of vernacular vice and virtue that spring naturally forth from the innate spirit of your true self. We will provide an appropriate garnish that both compliments . . . and is also complimentary.

Yes, my Born-Again Brethren, 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 fête di Anno Nuovo . . . or to linger indefinitely!

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

CAYA; Welcome to 2014! . . . Broken Resolutions Accepted

Dear Lost Souls,

Well, you survived the Holidays . . . and made it through 2013 with your sanity more or less intact. Now, while 2014 still has the fresh 'new year' smell, what better way to celebrate its boundless possibilities, than with a uniquely hand-crafted Haberdashery Cocktail in your hand? This week, as a special service to the Haberdite community, and in deference to the booming Shared Economy, we will be hosting a New Year's Resolution Swap. If you haven't broken yours yet, this is a good chance to show it off, before it dissolves into a January haze . . . broken resolutions will still be accepted as long as they are in reasonable and recognizable condition.

Oh yes, my Holiday Heroes, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. You survived the season! . . . now sit back and reap the benefits under the dappled eclectic star light and comforting shade of low expectations we tirelessly maintain 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 Friday evening soiree . . . or to linger indefinitely!

Yours!
Los Cabañeros
