We just moved near a bunch of friends I grew up with. We really enjoyed living in Santa Barbara, but it was a bit of an island, and I had trouble making new friends (Dee can make friends with a brick wall).
Now we literally live next door to one of my best friends, and very close to several other friends. It's been a game-changer in terms of day-to-day happiness. I think part of that is we all kind of do stuff for each other without any expectation of anything in return, like we're all just aiming to improve our collective lives and have a good time.
Anywho, great post Becca - hope you're doing well. :)
Ahhh congrats on the move - living next to a near good friends is truly living the dream IMO! And you’re totally right that there is some magic about proximity - the “keeping track” just falls away and these things become part of the daily fabric. It’s the state to strive for! Thanks for reading Reid - big hugs!
Gotta admit that a quinoa bake sounded good to me (is this the millennial casserole?!) so we made one this week — zucchini, peppers, & onions + a jar of pasta sauce — and it slaps!
Beautiful!
