You're listening to The Girl Next Door Podcast. I'm Erica. And I'm Kelsey. We're two former next door

neighbors and now good friends who love a good chat and a good cocktail. We're inviting you to

come on in, have a drink, and stay a while. Hey friend. Hey friend. Our intro has changed and our

physical location has changed but nothing else.

Yes. We're still right here at my dining room table.

In our happy place. Yep. Well, tonight is fun. You, dear listeners, have asked us all kinds of good things over the years and some topics have become complete episodes.

But we get all kinds of questions that we thought

would be fun to just combine into a listener question episode and just kind of a grab bag of

whatever you've been asking. So we've gotten so many lately that we think we'll split this into

a couple of different episodes. So this one is kind of focused on your questions about

podcasting, friendship,

and some fun summer ideas at the end. And then we hope to do another one later focused on

family and parenthood because you had lots of really great questions about that. Yeah,

but first, a cocktail. I have the cocktail for us tonight and I am so excited about this.

I am calling this a salty grapefruit sparkler.

And it is made with a locally made cocktail mixer by iconic mixers.

Yes.

And this is something I've had my eye on.

It's like been on my wish list for a while.

So they sell these bottles of cocktail mixers that are made with fresh fruits and local ingredients and things like that.

And this is a grapefruit sea salt mixer. So it's like grapefruit juice and some sea salt in there. And oh my gosh. Just a really pretty

bottle to you like it would be great to bring as a hostess gift or something. Great branding. Looks great.
