Cecily Strong Instagram – There is nobody like @rashidasheedz in reminding me how to best live life. I was in a bit of a funk/rut/emo anxiety bullshit right before my friend was gonna come visit. I asked if it would be ok if we went upstate instead of staying in the city. She said OF COURSE! We took off for two days and in the middle of dinner our first night, the owner of the restaurant came to get everyone outside and we saw the “Aurora Sara Borealis” (Rashida VERY proud of this joke). Thought we’d have to run around Iceland to ever see the Northern Lights but we got our own pretty pink light show in the Hudson Valley. We went apple picking and pumpkin staring with Lucy. We made apple crisp. We had cheese (Rashida also VERY proud of saying the Gouda tasted Good-ah as if dads haven’t existed and made this joke since the beginning of cheese) and cukes and carrots and some homemade pickles and our favorite chips and mocktails surrounded by trees. We hung by the frog pond and ruined peaceful videos by declaring “I think that’s raccoon shit” (I looked it up online and it looks like dog shit but a little darker). I love my sis and I love that she is so good at being full of wonder and it makes me feel like I can be full of wonder sometimes too. | Posted on 13/Oct/2024 21:13:55
