Yabba

Does anyone know when or if Yabba (on Flatbush and 6th), the natural beauty store is opening up again? They had a 50% off sale about a month ago and said they were closing for 2 weeks to re-stock/remodel and would re-open after 2 weeks. I've gone by a few times and the place looks empty and doesn't look like any work is going on.

Sadly, I also went by there a week or 2 ago to say hi to Sam, no-one was there, so I went into the bodega where his family works, next to Bergen Bagel, to inquire. I was shocked and saddened to find out he's left the country, and Yaba is no more! I was certainly told the same thing as everyone else. Very sad and surprising. He will be missed.

Damn.

And now I'm kicking myself for not buying more at that sale, too!
