And we are the same kind of 'best friends' that one finds anywhere. Some of those books are just weird (amusing but weird). I'm in a town where live & plot the most competitive women on earth. Many of them are wonderful friends, too. And others, eh, we'll just stay mum. <br /><br />I dislike the reduction of French women to their accessories & cliches. Your blog is great because it's fun & pretty, sense of humor. But some of the other ones are so strange to me. Having French friends & having lived there, they're writing about some fantasy that they want to sell to people - often literally as they are retailers, really. <br /><br />People are complex beings, anywhere...<br /><br />I agree with Justine - "girlfriends are the same the world over & what would we do without them."<br />ciao <br /><br />xoGiuliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06569643363733791671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-84844786320963322902010-05-19T11:09:08.937-04:002010-05-19T11:09:08.937-04:00Thank you JUDITH!
