Elevenses, Elizabeth Bonaudi

In Words

My neighborhood began the English tradition of 11ses (elevenses). We meet in the street at 11:00, Mon-Sat to chit chat and check in on one another (socially distancing, of course). I have gotten to know my neighbors much better and have developed a friendship with them that I will miss when I return to work. We have been able to check in with elderly neighbors and make sure that they are doing ok and providing some socializing. It has been a wonderful side effect of quarantine!
