I caught up with a friend I hadn't spoken to in a while today. We had a long chat about work, love and everything else in between. While we were chatting I felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude. Good friends are hard to come by and I know I don't appreciate them nearly enough as I should. [note to self]
I also came to the realisation that the plethora of social media we're exposed to gives us a false sense of friendship and makes us believe that we're connecting with people when we really aren't. Sad but true...
Anyway, I cooked a hearty meal and even baked for my dear friend. We both enjoyed it thoroughly :-)Dessert, as always, was my highlight and was really easy to prepare
