Roses and Scones

One of my closest and longest friends came for a visit this weekend. She had not been to my house for about 10 years. Seems mad but it's true.
So what did we do??

Well this might make you laugh........
We baked scones together.



Yup that was our highlight and believe me there was a few to chose from!

Not only were they fantastic, but the process in how we got there, covered everything about why we had become and still remain friends.

We love the same things
We have the same values
We appreciate each others strengths
We mock each others deficiencies
We listen to each others ideas
We want to learn from each others experiences
We allow the other to take the lead when they are most passionate
We allow ourselves to be wrong
We don't care about how we come across - we just are our raw selves
We appreciate the good of life
We are grateful


and all that in making a batch of scones.

There is a lot to be said about growing up together and knowing where each other has come from.
And this weekend my girls got to enjoy a part of that. And how they enjoyed it.

The roses were bought whilst shopping for the ingredients, but the roses are special in ways beyond the flower.



Friends are magic as are roses.
