Sixty-one percent of women report they get more laughs from the time they spend with their girlfriends than from anything else they do. Female friendships are a constant source of amusement and inspiration and, according to a recent survey commissioned by Red Bicyclette wines, 82 percent of women wish they had more time with their girlfriends.

Women who want to reclaim this special time, even if only for an afternoon, can host a Ros Soire that celebrates warm weather and good friends. The rules are few: No pagers, cell phones, boyfriends, husbands or hang-ups. And the requirements simple: good food, wine, conversation and casual fun.
