Arial and Daniels wedding was not until 4 ish.. so we used the morning to go back and revisit pittsburgh\/ We lived here in Squirrel Hill from 1988-91 while I was in grad school.\u00a0 Max was 6 weeks old when we moved here.. and 4 when we left . First stop was our old house at 2331 Pittock st.\u00a0 \u00a0Brought back some great memories !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From there we walked over to Murray and bban a nice loop through our old haunts.\u00a0 My old haircut place was still there.. Safi even still worked there.. unfortunately he wasn’t there till later so I didn’t get to see him.\u00a0

We also stopped at the Giant Eagle (or the Iggle as one says in pittsburgheese)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THe most fun as to stop at the Frick Park Deli.. THis is where max and I used to go to get ice cream on a stick (or ach-orch-deek in toddler maxeese) ..\u00a0 \u00a0We went in and bought some ach-orch-deek’s. and got to meet the new owner Tonie.. she and her family bought the place only a few years ago.. THey renamed it the Blue SLide Market.. in honor of the great blue slide in frick park just one block down.\u00a0 she told us about her vision for the place. as a family friendly affordable and welcoming place.. Looked to us like they’ve done a great job !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the way back to the car we stopped to eat mulberries off of one of the trees we probably ate off of 33 years ago.. They are so delicious.. but also very messy. Strangely, we never see anyone else eat those berries. Do they know something we don’t. know . or do we know something they don’t\u00a0 know \ud83d\ude42 ?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
