I have had the same best friend since I was four. And I have always had the BEST best friend. I snuck my first drink with her (what were our parents thinking?!). I started this blog with her (but I was always a bit more excited about it). I have had a lot of firsts with her, and there will be many more.
There are a million great things about her, but I am trying to keep this post to a reasonable length, so I will just focus on a few. She is always there when I need her. Always. I am not sure how many people have someone in their life that they know they can count on unconditionally. I think it makes me one of the luckiest people. She knows when to be on my side (even if I don’t deserve it), and she knows when to tell me to buck up and get on with life. She seems to have a sixth sense to know just when I need her most.
But alas, this is a blog about drinks, and besides just wanting to tell the world how awesome my BFF is, there is a reason for this post.
Did you know wine advent calendars were a thing? If you ask me, they are just the thing 2020 needs. And my BFF sent me one. It brings me more joy than it probably should, but why not add joy when possible? And I can tell people I drank a bottle of wine by myself, and it will actually be true.
If you have a BFF as great as I do, maybe you should get her a wine advent calendar. Maybe you should get one for yourself. Maybe you should share a glass of wine with your BFF as frequently as you can.
Dawnette, thanks for being the most amazing BFF a person can have. I am not sure I deserve you, but I am so thankful for you. We were pretty smart to choose each other. We must have been really smart four-year-olds.
