yoko.cool / Such a nice day today!

Solid Saturday morning.

Stocked up at the farmer’s market.

Jumped rope at Cat Park (saw Darth Nose, Sergeant Splotch, General Splotch, Zorro; also saw some goose parents with baby geese).

A photo of Kevin sitting at the outdoor dining area at Yafa. His facemask is hanging off his left ear, and he’s throwing up deuces. In the foreground you can see the orange blossom lemonade he ordered, as well as a bag of 45th Street blend coffee

Stopped by Yafa on our way back. We bought our first “we’re just gonna eat this now, outside” food (cold brew, lemonade), and we sat at their outdoor dining space. We took our masks off and sipped our drinks. Huge!

Took a wall photo. Also a first since pandemic, I think.

A photo of Kevin standing against a wall around the corner from Yafa. He’s wearing a baseball cap, a facemask, a “Anti Running Running Club” long sleeve, some black shorts, and a pair of red and blue trailrunning shoes. A collection of community artwork is wheatpasted on the wall behind him.

More about the artwork, a project by Papergirl Brooklyn, here.

Kevin got a free plant and we don’t know what it is. lol

Eggs and salad from the farmer’s market, plus leftover chiles relleno and rice and beans from Isabela’s.

Diptych photo of the view from the jetty in Bush Terminal Park AKA Cat Park. Left photo is facing northwest, and beyond the Upper Bay you can see New Jersey; above there is a strip of cloud on a blue sky. Right photo is facing north, and you can see part of Red Hook, Governor’s Island, and the Manhattan skyline.

Coming down from my caffeine (and life) high, and wanted to capture here 😌
