The Original 1/2 Pints

Sara and Bonnie

Sara and Bonnie met in winter of 2012 at a Christmas party in Oregon City. Their boyfriends, at the time, were friends so Sara approached Bonnie and invited her to have dinner and drinks sometime and well, have been friends ever since.

“Sara is hands down the best cook I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting let alone become friends with” says Bonnie. “I learned everything I know about cooking from Sara.” Sara and Bonnie spent years cooking together side by side, (a hobby they picked up) and Bonnie became quite the Suchef Sara trained her to be. With the skills Bonnie picked up, she now has a list of her own creations that she shares with her family. The friendship between the two little birds is a magical one at that, for not everyone is blessed with a friendship like theirs.

From the dictionary: A true friend is a friend when is convenient and when it is not. They standby you consistently both when you are present and when you are not. They're Authentic and Honest with You. True friends aren't phony with you. They show you who they really are.

Sara and Bonnie are the definition of true friends and will be so until they are old ladies sitting in their camping chairs on the beach drinking champagne with their bathing suits on, or off!
