I hosted a small birthday party last night for my friend Shoshana. She loves all things French and having never spent time there, I did what I could to accommodate her francophone ways with a bit of cliche food: croissants, cheese, bread, wine, chocolate, nuts, and of course girly pink wine.
She was tickled rose.
By the end of the night, I had a gaggle of girls laughing hysterically and listening to stories about everything from Costa Rican adventures to living as an Orthodox Jew in college and what we really think of the statue David. Ahem. It was a breath of fresh air and I felt my hostess spirits renewed.
