L’eau a la Bouche is becoming my favorite coffee stop. A friend came down from Singapore to celebrate her birthday in London last week, and this seemed to the best place to take to on Sunday to drench in the  sun and soak in the East London vibe at the moment.

She has a purpose.
Her bag slung over her arm, she’s on her way

Not really rushing
But not going slow
She doesn’t notice the sun
Shining so rare, shining in her face
Her head is down, her eyes are blank
She only sees where she’s going.

She has a purpose.
Her bag slung over her arm, she’s on her way

Saturday night I was lucky to go to a comedy/cabaret at the Hackney Empire in the East End. The theater used to be a music hall, holding performances by Charlie Chaplin and the likes.  While there, I saw this couple at the intermission  (fetching a drink and some sushi at the bar inside the theater, how convenient!) and loved the impressionistic light falling on them from above.

The theatre: it takes them away
A new life, no regrets about what they say
Intermission, time for a drink
Time not to think
Time to talk and pose and be seen
It’s fun, another world, a dream

Swept away in the theatre flow
The crowd meets for no other reason
Than wanting to see the show
