    Hi, friends! Happy Galentine’s Day! Though I am not able to host a Galentine’s Day Brunch this year, but I still wanted to celebrate my favorite holiday (yes, over Valentine’s Day) in some way. So in today’s blog post, I am sharing my favorite books, TV shows, and podcasts about or by female friends as well as a couple of blog posts about how to make friends as an adult.
