It's my fabulous friend Stephanie's birthday today and we are celebrating by going out for lunch. Yipee! I feel like with the holiday craziness I just haven't been able to see my friend Steph nearly enough and now we actually get to hang on her day! How do l love my Stephanie? Let me count the ways....
1. Stephanie is always there for me, for the big stuff or the small. Who else would read my long rambling emails about things that are irritating me??
2. Much ado about nothing. We can gab or email about the most random but oh-so-important-to-us things...and we don't even need a joint to do so.
3. She is my fashion mentor and is as girlie as I am. Stephanie always looks fabulous, even when she's just hangin' in sweats around her house. The girl will don her studded Chrisitan Louboutin boots just to meet me for coffee so I can check them out.
4. Stephanie and I discovered long ago that we have so much in common and we'll often end up doing or saying or buying the same things!!! We will easily show up somewhere in the same coat or wearing the same jewelry...and we are catty about it? Hell to the no! In fact, we revel in it!
5. The girl can cook. And she cooks for me. Is there anything else I need to say about that?!
6. Stephanie is one of the most generous people I know and the most gracious host. Whenever I am at her house I feel like royalty. She will give you the shirt off her back or the purse out of her closet--literally.
7. She has a wicked wit and she's not afraid to use it. The girl is hilariously funny. And did I mention smart as a whip??
8. We can talk for hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and....well, you get the idea.
9. She's a great travel companion. Our unforgettable trip to NYC proved that!!!
10. There is no B.S. with Stephanie. What you see is what you get. She may be gorgeous, smart, funny and glamorous but she is down-to-earth nice and REAL, baby.
Really the list could go ever on and on, just like the road....:-) (Tolkien reference, to those of you who might have missed that...and shame on you if you did...!) I am oh-so-lucky to have my friend Stephanie in my life!
Happy Birthday Girlie!!!!!!!!
