I was just in New Orleans and getting breakfast at this bakery was probably the food highlight. The mushroom boudin boy was very tasty.

Beautiful French patisserie and café. Probably the best macarons I’ve ever had and the almond petit four AND the affogato. Holy cow. I went twice today.

if there is a simple method to making friends it is seeing the same people at the same place(s) week after week. in some phases of life this is easier; ex, freshman year of college dorm. in other phases of life it is more difficult.
regardless, you have interests. other people have those interests. find people with those interests, that are fun, and also have space in their life for new people. do the interest together at some sort of location. then, invite the various people you've met over for a dinner party. voila- friends.
this isn't always a quick process, and it will likely be often frustrating and disappointing. its worth it though. the internet can help facilitate with meeting similar people who are open to friends.
specific things that have worked for me: going out dancing/club scene, internet(reddit/twitter), friends of friends, seeing movies, having people over for dinner.
good luck!

There arent your typical rockers. For one they often post funny notes app apologies. These days they typically either have a trust fund, they are ruining their life, or they live in Philadelphia. It's nice to be at your email job navigating Microsoft Excel while imagining what it would be like to live in "West," to have complicated emotions and relations, to receive a modest $2,000 per month. Probably the best current indie rocker is Alex Walton, who lives in Boston and does not seem to have a trust fund. Her song "My Meds are Working" is a hit dance single, and well worth checking out, followed by her album "Our Desire Lacks Knowing Music."
