Thank You for Being a Friend
Thank You for Being a Friend: Life ? According to the Golden Girls | Emma Lewis
16 posts | 1 read | 4 to read
Everything you need to know about life, according to the fearless wisdom of The Golden Girls' Dorothy, Rose, Sophia, and Blanche. More than thirty years after it first aired, The Golden Girls retains a steadily growing cult following. The show ran for seven seasons (collecting a staggering fifty-eight Emmy nominations and eleven wins along the way), and over the years, this hit comedy about four fierce and sassy broads sharing a house in Miami charmed millions of viewers with its wit and verve and, most of all, the strength and quality of the friendship between its four iconic characters. Featuring fun and colorful illustrations throughout, Thank You for Being a Friend brings you the ultimate wisdom of Dorothy, Rose, Sophia, and Blanche. Find out which Girl is your true spirit animal with the "Which Golden Girl Are You?" quiz; get sex and dating advice from TV's greatest vamp, Blanche Devereaux; and master the art of the witty zinger with Dorothy. There are cheesecake recipes for the perfect midnight snack, Golden Girls bingo, profiles on each of the extraordinary actresses who brought these incredible characters to life, and the Ten Commandments of shared house living. Full of inspiration, fashion advice, makeup tips, trivia, and hilarious quotes direct from the lanai, Thank You for Being a Friend is here to help you discover the secrets to maintaining the lifelong bonds between friends who are more like family.

Christine, I teared up when I opened your card. Thank you, my precious friend, for these beautiful pictures. This is so special and I‘m so grateful to know you 💚 I‘ll be making some sort of collage to hang on the wall with these! @TheBookHippie

TheBookHippie Awe you are so very welcome!!
FYI _ My trusty old camera is still dating things 2005 from when I bought it LOL I can't figure the date thing out and got it to weird dates in 2017 I was trying to get it to do the date I took them for you ... I just recently took it out of storage started taking pics again and caught these lovely birds for you. I'm so glad you like them. I know you miss your parents terribly. I hope this gave you joy! XXOO

CBee @TheBookHippie it absolutely gave me joy! I didn‘t even notice the date, that‘s so weird it‘s not working 🤔 Once I put the collage together I‘ll take a pic and send it to you 💚 9mo
CBee @AmyG aren‘t they? I‘m so thankful to have them 💚 9mo

On my #Litsyversary celebrating seven years here, I want to say thank you to this community. It is so special to be part of this group. I treasure the friendships I‘ve made here. Thank you for encouraging me, not just in my reading—and I‘ve read A LOT of books I probably wouldn‘t have otherwise—but through life‘s ups and downs. I love you all! Here‘s to continuing to read and grow together ❤️

Librarybelle Happy Litsyversary! 9mo

Captured this off of an Instagram ad. I don‘t watch the Golden Girls (say whaaat?!?), but I know there are littens who would enjoy this relatable #tbrtuesday meme.

Sace It's accurate. 4y

I want to take a second today to tell all my Litsy friends how thankful I am for all of your good humor, friendship, positive energy, and support. I‘m glad about losing my job but I‘m still having a raft of anxiety about it. I get to live life as I‘ve dreamed, instead of suffering for the wages of capitalism. I‘m looking forward to more time with my family, new recipes, new opportunities, and lots of books.

Megara 👏 Cheers, comrade! 5y
Megara And best of luck to you in your new adventure! 5y

MidnightBookGirl @Kaye It was a 1983 hit by the German band Nena. And I love traveling to New York. I love the city, but my friend lives near Tarrytown and the original Sleepy Hollow cemetery so I've been able to enjoy the gorgeousness of upstate NY! 6y

451 characters is not enough to explain how happy I am, so I wrote a haiku:

Tales of girls, wolves, snow
Rainbow chocolate teddy hearts
Litsy #Valentine

Thank you @Liatrek for your creativity and generosity. You really made my day!

Thanks also to @Avanders @BookBabe and @MrBook for organizing such a lovely party!

#RiotGrams, Day 4: Today's prompt is "current read." I just got back from a trip to Print Bookstore, which involved sitting in a lot of traffic, so I'm going to ease my brain back into the day with some Golden Girls wisdom and thorough slayer knowledge. ❤️???

bio_chem06 Did you follow the graphic novels post Buffy season finale? I'm trying to decide if I want to. 7y
Liberty @bio_chem06 No, for me it ended on television. 7y
bio_chem06 That's kind of what I have been my thoughts as well. Thanks! 7y
