Four wheels and a seat ☀️
FRIDAY | 11.21.25
Friends are the family you choose. The jury’s out on who first uttered those words, but we’ll play along with the theory that it was Charlie Brown. While the proper noun “friendsgiving” wasn’t actually recognized until Twitter and a big fancy Irish whiskey campaign made it popular in the early 2000s, the idea of celebrating all that’s good in life with our closest pals isn’t a concept of the 21st century. Surprise, surprise, it’s quite a few hundreds of years old. That part’s important. Because whether you’re pretending to “really like” your friend’s pumpkin pie or feeding the green beans to the dog under the table, gratitude and being present with each other are two of the most powerful ways we can honor that thing called friendship. Always has been and always will be. So thanks for being here. Hope your weekend is filled with belly laughs and the dog gets a hearty serving of green beans this year.
