True Friends… (Gabrielle)
If any of you know Raquel and I or have read this blog for any length of time I’m sure you will have heard us express our disdain for those smarmy e-mail forwards that talk about “True Friends”. “Friends do thus and so, but True Friends do such and such.” Well, I have an addition. When you get stung by something and are scratching away at your arm a friend will commiserate with you, but a true friend will go root around in her bag for the baking soda she knows is in there and when she finds it she will make a paste for you and liberally apply it to your arm while you hold a very cute baby. And if she is a true friend the itch will go away after a time and you won’t even know where you got stung.
