Recipe for a Good Friendship

When it comes to friendship, many dear faces come to my mind, but one particular person that has repeatedly shown her love and devotion is my friend Frances. Frances and I met many years ago, even though neither one of us can exactly remember when. In the last few years, she has become one of my closest friends. My first year of college, I moved into the dorms with her and, little did I know at the time, it was the beginning of much craziness, laughter, late nights, funny quotes, elaborate decorations and costumes, and ultimately a deep friendship to come. Frances will always be my constant. I have been particularly thankful for her the last few months as she continually helps out when times get hard and continually offers a listening ear when I need it most. This recipe for friendship is dedicated to her and all her quirks.

 Recipe for a Good Friendship

2 Friends
3 scoops of time
2 cups hot chocolate
at least 2 good movies
dash of silliness
3 cups of kindness
1 occasionally shared silver Chevy cavalier
1 heaping spoonful of patience
3/4 cup humor
3 handfuls funny quotes
1 quote book, minus 12 Valerie quotes
1 glue gun, plus buttons, paper chains, paper flowers, etc.
1 5 lb. bag of listening ears

Combine the 2 friends with the time. Add in the movies and the hot chocolate. Sprinkle in silliness as desired.

When needed, add patience, kindness, and humor to the above ingredients.

When necessary, borrow the silver Chevy Cavalier. Return promptly. Always have the glue gun within arms reach, and the quote book nearby to add the handfuls of funny quotes.

Make sure to liberally add listening ears, and for best results, enjoy weekly, or even daily.
