I have these friends…I call them “The Women”. At some point, years ago, we talked about calling ourselves that because we all watched our mothers (or women before us) have women in their lives that were known for hosting showers, bringing meals, celebrating babies/grandbabies, attending weddings and parties, etc.  Basically, they were the dependable ones in… Continue reading #pieForBreakfast – with “TheWomen”
