It’s not just Book Club.
Hot and yummy artichoke dip, tasty crab salad, healthy fresh fruit, trail mix (with dark chocolate M&Ms), black bean salsa and chips, very chocolatey chip cookies and wild berry pie. Each treat shared by a girlfriend at last night’s neighborhood Book Club. (Calories don’t count when you’re with your girlfriends, right?!)

Be a Better Friend – It takes a long time …
June 18, 2010 – 9:29 am
You never know where you’ll find a friend.
Where did you meet your BFF? In school? At work? On your street or yoga class? Have you found friends at the dog park, soccer games, volunteering or waiting on your decaf venti non-fat latte? (or is that just me?!) Have you found friends on Facebook? At church? [...]

Be a Better Friend – What Defines You?
June 11, 2010 – 10:59 am
I love the lessons I learn from girlfriends.
A girlfriend recently shared an update on her friend who had dealt with breast cancer. Her girlfriend made a conscious decision to not be defined by this terrible disease.
That made me think. We each get to decide what defines us.
Are we a victim or survivor? Are we a [...]

Be a better friend … like Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha
May 27, 2010 – 1:31 pm
Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte. Alone, they’re not ‘Sex and the City.’ Girlfriends need each other.
Maybe you love them or you hate them. Maybe you don’t even care … but they do offer an interesting insight into girlfriends who consider each other soul-mates. They’ve been through boyfriends, husbands, ex-husbands, kids, parents, jobs and life together [...]

Be a Better Friend – It’s the Little Things
May 21, 2010 – 12:39 pm
It’s true. It’s the little things.
The phone call to check on you when you really need to share. The hug that you don’t want to end. The eyes that say she’s there for you. Time together when you really need it.
One ‘little’ way to be there for each other is as simple as the “one [...]

Be a Better Friend – Creatively
May 14, 2010 – 4:09 pm
Today’s creative ideas for being a better friend!
Several years ago I worked in the craft/hobby industry.
Was it fun to receive and work with lots of creative products? (And does my basement still look like a mini Michaels?!) Sure.
Did I enjoy being on HGTV (with the creative and kind Carol Duvall, shown below), QVC and PBS? [...]

Be a Better Girlfriend – for Moms and Girlfriends
May 7, 2010 – 9:36 am
What does it take to … ‘be a better friend?’
Does it take time? Money? Special skills?
Not necessarily. Sometimes it just takes asking the right question and really listening to what’s going on in her life.
Sometimes it takes being there for her when her parent passes away or when she’s battling a scary thing like cancer.

High point. Low point.
Lisa, Vicki, Phyllis and I used to play this game at the end of a busy day at an industry tradeshow. It was our way to touching base with each other on the highs and lows of our day. Did our meetings and classes go well, or not? Did we meet the [...]
