I recently saw an event for High Tea at the Art Museum and thought it would be the perfect opportunity for a good ol’ fashion girlfriend date! My friend, Lisa, and I got dolled-up and spent the afternoon enjoying dainty treats and each other’s company.

While I typically don’t get fancy and drink tea on a Sunday afternoon, it was so fun to try out a local event and spend time with a good friend.

I know everyone’s lives are busy, and seem to all go at a different pace, but this fun afternoon made me realize that getting together with friends is so important. It doesn’t have to be for an entire day, or even an entire afternoon. Going out for coffee, grabbing a quick dinner, or even calling when you’re driving home from work can be the perfect way to re-connect and let someone know you are thinking of them.

What are some of your favorite places to wine and dine with your girlfriends?
