Not necessarily mutually exclusive

I've seen a lot of them in my neighborhood, but not the nuthatches, warblers, or the sapsuckers!

If you want to take photos, I really have to recommend North Point Park, especially in the spring and summer. Lots of redwing blackbirds, a great blue heron every once in a while. There's even a pair of swans sometimes.

Oh, this is an easy walk from me, I'll have to check it out!

If you're doing sandwiches in the North End I say go to Salumeria Italiana on Richmond Street

Cambridge is super doable if you don't drive! Between pedestrian friendly streets, bike lanes, the subway and the bus system you can get just about anywhere in the city. Personally, I'm biased and recommend East Cambridge, but there's tons of walkable neighborhoods and there's tons of labs in the Kendall area which is easy to get to. Just make sure you're looking at subway and bus stops when looking for places to live because there are a few areas in west Cambridge that are a bit more car dependent.

Great candy from Sweet Lydia's on Market St!

I mean, I could still walk there

This is so sweet, thank you for offering! But I'm trying to distract myself from Thanksgiving festivities so it's not quite as depressing, just looking for some kind of takeout I can enjoy for myself while doing chores around the house.

But sometimes the hours online are preset and it doesn't match the hours on holidays.
