Annual Girlz Weekend – Take One

Upon the eve of our 40th birthdays – girls I’ve known since I was an early teen decided to create an annual weekend event – a girls only celebration.

Five years in – and the single idea has turned into a tradition of which we all look forward to every summer.

Each year a new place is chosen – usually a short jaunt from our hometown, yet it feels worlds away as we envelope ourselves into a few days of catching up, cooking, sharing and laughing.

Oh, the laughing.

This weekend we are cozied up in the foothills of Sonoma…

My favorite photo of the weekend. I call it “Women, Wine and Status Updates.”
