Well I'm glad you got to enjoy some of them at the very least! With Dahlia courting Mr. Honeyduke, we'll have no shortage of sweets from here on out!

I think anyone can be kind if you look hard enough. Of course anyone can be unkind as well. I cannot recall any terribly unpleasant interactions with Slytherins specifically in my time at Hogwarts, but it is nice she is helping you with potions! I think you should certainly enter if there is another tournament! I once earned detention for falling asleep in History of Magic, it happens.

London is a big change, but I am enjoying myself. I have a whole rooftop garden and a giant greenhouse, so it feels like home even though I am in the city. Perhaps you will get a chance to visit me this summer!
