Jaffe: where everybody knows your name...

where everybody knows your name...

Sometimes you walk into a bar and think "I wish this place was in my neighborhood". OK, it wasn't quite 'Cheers' (at least I didn't hear anyone yell 'NORM' as the customers walked in), but the Orchid Lounge in the east village is clearly a place that could attract the local artsy/alternative types. The half-priced drinks from 5-8pm was a nice surprise, as was the 'Sajito', which is a Mojito with Sake instead of Rum. The shrine to Connie Chung behind the bar is a bit weird, but not weird enough to keep me away...

Hey Aron, here goes, it's me, Aunt
Beth, computer challenged yes, but I'm doing my best. What's up? Just want to see if this works. I like that comment from CLO---> A-man. Very cute. Hope you had a fun weekend with the 'mystery lady'... :>) You'll have to fill me in sometime.
Toot-a-loo. Aunt Beth

Hi Aron....I have to admit, with much regret, that I am just now checking out your blog.

I love that I have known you long enough to actually hear you in my head telling your story as I read through your various postings. It sounds as though you are settling in quite nicely and adding yet another experience-rich new chapter to your life.
