So many know my complete love and adoration of the Yellow Springs Inn in the historic village of Yellow Springs in West Pikeland Township.  I have been going to Yellow Springs Inn as have my friends and family since they were in what the village now calls the The Washington - i.e. that large pretty building at the end of the village.

When Yellow Springs Inn first began they had a liquor license.  Or should I say access to one – I think the license went with the old building.  But truthfully it was because of that license that my friends, myself and family were introduced to Chef/Owner Charlie Orlando because we were first introduced to him and his fabulous fare via wine brokers.

When Charlie and his wife took on the gargantuan task of restoring the Jenny Lind House after they moved the business out of it’s first village location they decided they would try to just have a restaurant as a BYOB.  But now that they have been open for a while, and based on customer feedback (his customers have missed his wine pairings) they have decided to go back to having a liquor license.

Getting a liquor license in PA is a bit of a process.  There are only so many per county, and within that only so many per municipality.  I know people who have gone through this process in other municipalities and it  involves municipal approval and public approval in addition to approval from the state itself.

This is why I am writing this post.  A mailing went out to Yellow Springs Inn customers asking for letters of support in favor of the Orlandos pursuing a liquor license again ASAP - they need to grow their business to keep the customer base growing and the business growing as well.  I see no issue here as his returning to wine flight dinners and an amazing wine list as a food and wine draw of the first and finest tier.   The success of the Yellow Springs Inn is also quite frankly essential to the survival of the historic village itself.

Why would I make such a bold statement? Because it is the truth.  The first thing that drew me to the village years ago was the Yellow Springs Inn itself.  The bucolic and historic setting then captured my imagination and I began to return for village events like the art show and now defunct antique show (the antique show was quite fabulous in fact).

When Yellow Springs Inn closed due to it’s impending move a couple years ago and the Jenny Lind House was under renovation (it needed SERIOUS work!) I stopped going to the village as often.  At that time it was more than an hour’s drive for me, so I just did not have the impetus to go out there as often.

So last year when I began my full time transition to Chester County I realized that Yellow Springs Inn was  not just a catering entity as it had been during renovation of the Jenny Lind House, but was back as a restaurant.

Going back to the Yellow Springs Inn that first evening in early 2012 for dinner was like visiting old family friends in a new home.  And the magic was still there – and remarkably most of the old staff.  If you know anything about the restaurant business you know how transient staff can be.  So if staff comes back like that after a major renovation it says something about the business itself and the owners – all positive.

When I returned to the Inn, it once again drew me back to the village itself.  I am quite frankly worried for the village.  It is starting to show serious wear and tear and they did things like dropped the antique show.  Yes there is the art show and a smattering of other events to entice people to this historically preserved jewel of a village, but those are occasional events.  The village in order to sustain also needs The Yellow Springs Inn to make it more of a destination. It is a simple fact of life.

I want Yellow Springs Inn to remain, but I am no fool – if they say they need a liquor license to grow and thrive, they need one.  This is not an impetuous decision.

So that brings me to the request of the Yellow Springs Inn for people ESPECIALLY in West Pikeland to take five minutes this holiday weekend and contact the West Pikeland Board of Supervisors.

In the event something  else should be lurking about regarding this whole scenario (as in village not municipal politics) may I quote Cher from the movie “Moonstruck” when she says to Nicholas Cage’s character “snap out of it!!!” (and no I won’t be slapping anyone LOL..)

Yellow Springs as a village needs to come together here and the people in and around West Pikeland need to help ALL parties concerned see the forest for the trees.  It is much like the Bircrunville Store Cafe is to the little village of Birchrunville: the village needs this restaurant. It has a proven history of excellence and you have a Chef/Owner who is indeed invested in the community because face it, if he did not love the village he could have made it easier on himself by choosing a different location and not sinking so much money into a historic building restoration, right?

The village of Yellow Springs in my humble opinion needs the restaurant to survive.  And the village itself should not be in the restaurant business as they have enough on their plate with the village itself.  The Village needs to grow too, but that is a seperate conversation from this one.  Keeping the Yellow Springs Inn where it is will help ensure the future of the village. So let’s encourage all parties concerned to put aside whatever it is that may lurk and look to the big picture.

Here is the letter from Yellow Springs to their customers and let’s git r’ done people – besides the more profitable this restaurant is the more money that comes into this little municipality, right?

Yellow Springs Inn is one of the best places in the world to hold a special moment in your life or to simply have an amazing meal.  That bit of magic comes from the owners and no one else.  That magic can’t be replicated or imitated. It just is.  So help keep the magic happening and contact these supervisors as per below.  If you know these folks personally, even better.

Enough out of me, here is the letter:

May 24, 2013

To Our Friends and Loyal Customers…

In order for our restaurant to survive in our current location, we have made the decision to apply for a Pennsylvania liquor license. To obtain a license, we need the approval of the West Pikeland Supervisors. We would greatly appreciate your support in this endeavor. They will be holding a special executive session meeting this Tuesday evening to vote on the matter, so please respond as quickly as possible.

If you understand the huge investment and countless hours of work it has taken to restore our beautiful, historic building – please forward this letter with your name and a short note of support for our efforts to any or all of the Township Supervisors listed below. With your help, we can continue to provide a truly unique dining experience and help bring vitality to this charming village that we call home.

Add Chase Utley to the list.

Just when you thought the Philadelphia Phillies second baseman might make it through the year injury-free, Utley has now been shelved by an oblique strain.

He's the latest casualty on a growing list of players that could sink the Phillies season before we hit June.

Utley's out. And he joins Carlos Ruiz, who has a foot injury that will keep him out of action for several weeks; fifth starter John Lannan, who got knocked out after a few starts; Roy Halladay, possibly out for the year after shoulder surgery, and Mike Adams, the key set-up man to closer Jonathan Papelbon.

And don't forget that Ryan Howard is battling injuries that could linger all season.

It's not looking good for a team that needs every player healthy to even have a shot at playoff contention.

But losing Utley for any length of time may sink this ship.

Utley got off to a strong start and leads the team in RBIs. His constant showing on the field meant to opponents that the Phils had a chance at fightin' every game.

You know your team is in trouble when Michael Martinez—who barely hits above the Mendoza line—is back on the roster as a utility player.

Adams, meanwhile, is headed off to Clearwater to try to work out the kinks in his back. His return would bolster a bullpen that's already running a shuttle bus between Philly and the Lehigh Valley.

Manager Charlie Manuel must be scratching his head, knowing that his roster looks more like M.A.S.H. than a ball club.

Michael Young and Jimmy Rollins are the only regulars who are still healthy. You can't count Ben Revere because he can't get on the field with such a weak bat.

So what can the Phillies do?

You need healthy players, but this baseball team is aging faster than the cheese they use on those steak sandwiches at Tony Luke's in Asburn Alley.

The baseball season is always a long one so May can look totally different in August.

But, right now, the Phillies are shouting "May Day, May Day."

The nation’s golf spotlight will turn to Haverford Township next month when the U.S. Open comes to the Merion Golf Club.

The 2013 U.S. Open runs June 10 through June 16 at the Merion Golf Club. Those of you who are familiar with the club know that there is not much parking in the area, so people are being bused in from two remote parking lots, one at PPL Park in Chester and the other from Rose Tree Park in the Media area, so the crowds won’t be confined to the immediate Merion area.

If you’re heading to the event, or even if you’re not, you may be surprised by some of the rules set up by the United States Golf Association, which include the item that you can get thrown out for “making rude, vulgar, or other inappropriate comments or gestures,” and spectators are not allowed to bring cell phones.

The Ardmore Initiative, Ardmore Business Association, and Infiniti of Ardmore wanted to make sure the pros weren’t the only ones picking up their clubs in June. They are putting on the Infiniti of Ardmore Open Mini-Golf tournament June 8 in Schauffele Plaza, located at 12 E. Lancaster Ave., from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Two area businesses have been hard at work preparing a sweet treats for the Merion Golf Club. Bonnie Cosaro, of Bonnie's Best Cookies in Villanova is making 500 brownies and 500 chocolate cookies with pecans. The treats are topped with an edible sugar medallion that bears the 2013 U.S Open Merion logo. That local was made by Alexis Braunfeld, of Villanova and Gina Cox of Roxborough, owners of Sugar Treasures.

My car’s rear seats don’t fold down. They did on my previous car, which was a coupe version of my current car, but my car’s first owner didn’t pony up the money for the cold-weather package … so now I’m stuck with a small trunk and no headlamp washers. 

First world problems, I know.

And because my seats don’t fold down, whenever I want to go skiing, or surfing, or just carry a long stick in my vehicle, I’ve got to run to my mother. She drives a 2001 Toyota RAV4. It’s cavernous, can plow through 2 feet of snow with its gas-guzzling, always-on 4-wheel drive system and 70-series tires, and is probably the slowest vehicle I’ve ever driven. I’m always welcome to drive it when I need to take a tortuous trip to Ikea and I love it. 

But, being a red-blooded American guy, I’ve always been more interested overall in a car’s speed and agility rather than its ability to haul antique furniture. So I was surprised when I read a road test for the then-updated 2006 RAV4 V6. The surprise? At the time, it was the fastest thing in Toyota’s lineup; according to Car and Driver, the 269-horsepower RAV scooted to 60 mph in a scant 6.3 seconds. While this is cool for the RAV4 faithful, it begs the question: What’s going on with Toyota?

Lately, Toyota has been the brand that you recommend to a family member. Staid, reliable, relatively slow and largely forgettable. But this hasn’t always been the case. Growing up in the ’90s, I remember lusting after a few Toyota products. Remember the super-rare Celica All-Trac or the Ferrari-inspired MR-2? Both of them had a 200-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and a manual transmission. The 1994 Celica was a looker as well, and who could forget the fourth-generation, 320-horsepower twin-turbo Supra? That car, with its ridiculous rear wing, is so iconic it’s synonymous with a catch phrase: “More than you can afford, pal.”

Is Toyota making anything iconic now? I mean, the aging IS F was interesting, and the LFA supercar (of which 500 were made) was pretty cool, but none of those cars is ever going to have a movie line attached to it. The last fun car I can remember Toyota offering was the Celica GT-S with its 180-horsepower Yamaha engine ... but that's been gone for years.

The closest thing Toyota has to a sports car right now is the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ. It’s good looking, lithe and reasonably quick … but slower to 60 by a tenth than the 7-year-old RAV4 V6 according to Car and Driver. I know straight line numbers aren’t everything, and call me childish, but I don’t want to own a car that looks fast but will lose “Grand Prix du Stoplight” to a cute-ute.

Toyota has branded itself as a conservative car manufacturer. That’s fine, but the company is selling these milquetoast cars like hotcakes. According to the Wall Street Journal, Toyota makes four of the top-20 best selling cars in the country. It sold almost 32,000 Camrys … in April. And, according to CNN Money, Toyota has been jockeying with GM for the title of world’s largest automaker for the past several years. Each is selling about 9 million cars annually, and Volkswagen Group is a close third.  

When you sell 9 million of anything, you’d think there would be a budget for some … fun. Funnel some of that money that now goes to devising new shades of beige paint into some new designers and a wind tunnel or something. Why not revive the Celica nameplate? What about a Corolla All-Trac? How about rolling out a new GT-R-fighting Supra?

GM and Volkswagen Group are selling millions of cars too—and many of them are boring.  But GM has its CTS-V and ZR1, and Volkswagen Group has its Aventador and Veyron. You’ve got to have an emotional car in your lineup, and Toyota doesn’t have anything.

In case you missed them, below are a few of the biggest stories that broke in Lower Merion Township and the surrounding area in the last week.

As always, thanks for reading, and have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend.
