I have heard, although not personally lived it, that there was a time in life that you could borrow a cup of sugar from your neighbor. This seems to be a reality on the "Real Housewives"...that is the real Real Housewives and not the varying reality shows which I feel pretty confident would be more likely to throw sugar or just lie about having any:) Saying that, do we really know our neighbors?
My husband grew up on a road in PA where many of the families still live and his friends have been friends for life. Most of the children have moved on but the parents and Grandparents have remained. This does seem to be a dying thing. Literally, once the older generation moves on the newer generation moves in. Doors locked, curtains drawn and the once social gathering around a neighborhood bonfire is gone.
My husband and I figured out yesterday that we do know our neighbors.....
We have Murreys Dad, Mysfa's Mom, Blankets Dad, Brownies Parents and Sugars parents.
So I guess I may not be able to borrow sugar but I can borrow something from my neighbors...puppy chow!
