Girls night in

There is simply nothing better than week night with girlfriends, drinking pomegranate martinis and talking. Something about it soothes the soul, renews your outlook and makes you feel wonderful.
Today during an all girls email my friend Jody made the mistake of stating "My man is working tonight, my kids are away and I am basically home alone - who wants to come over for drinks". Sadly for her - she had hit me during a rough time of the day and even though I had a lot of stuff to do at home to get ready for this weekends camping trip - I eagerly answered. After high pressuring my close friend (her sister) into attending also the night was set. We had hoped another friend would join us however she inevitably baled due to children issues (apparently swimming is more fun that sitting around with Mommies friends).
Our gracious hostest welcomed us around 7pm with an open bottle of wine and promise of a delightful dinner. After predinner toasts we ate and talked. Call it the martini but I could feel myself relax with ever syllable spoke. We talked about everything from ex husbands to friends ex girlfriends and everything in between. From a fresh bottle of Skye vodka to the last 3 inches of it - we had a great time.
Dinner with girlfriends is the best thing after a stressful day! Thanks to all my girlfriends that know a martini and a talk can cure the worst of day - hugs and love to ya!
