Haggerston

Our First of April started with a window-chat with Boodi and was followed by a beautiful walk to the canal.
Imran nostalgically helped a boater pull their boat into the lock. ⭐️Cue nostalgic music ⭐️.

Beautiful reunion with the Solomons happened at Hackney city farm. After some good food there, we admired very happy piglets (didn’t know they jump around and chase one another!).

Playground-break for the kids ended up in an unexpected meeting with a friend from Rome, whose kid that was playing with Emma was actually helped being delivered from my mum. ⭐️crazy coincidence here⭐️.

Some very special French treats from Columbia Road and some delicious coffee woke up our spirits at Solomons. Good beer, David Foster Wallace and his suggested “The New Fowlers” followed. ⭐️thank you Sol for these inspiring Texts⭐️.

Our first of April 2023 ended with laughter and philosophical thoughts about the definition “SNOOT”, some unbelievably good sourdough kimchi pizza ⭐️oh dear and some mac and cheese calzone that I didn’t want to mention as my Italian heart turned upside down⭐️, happy kids, happy adults.
