A Weekend Visit from Jorge and Robin and Ocho

Cafe Drake HRV was thrilled to open our doors to decades-old compadre Jorge Manahan and his most delightful main squeeze Robin. And how we loved seeing our old friend grown so much older, Ocho Manahan. Brunches at Liberty of Rhinebeck and Miss Lucy's + antiquing and home-cooked meals and overdue catch-ups made the visit memorable. Our trusty furnace warms the house less efficiently than the presence of such delightful guests. Arabella and Lloyd agree.

Tip for All Weekend Hosts: Provide company with plenty of fresh hot coffee upon waking. And home-baked muffins won't hurt either.
