RHONJ's Melissa Gorga noted that it can be "hard" to form strong friendships.
Melissa Gorga is feeling extra grateful for her friends and loved ones this holiday season.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member posted a series of sweet snapshots from a friend's recent festive holiday gathering on December 15.

"Good friends are hard to find," the mom of three wrote in the caption of the post, which highlighted her wearing a black sparkly mid-calf dress. "Hold onto them when you find them. Another fab Christmas party..."
"Always such a fun night!!" Rachel wrote in the comments section of the post.
Margaret reiterated Melissa's sentiment about friendship in a post of her own from the same party.
"Celebrating with true friends is the best gift there is..." she wrote in an Instagram caption.

"My Team, I am so grateful for every one of you. (Missing a few)," Melissa wrote in an Instagram post featuring a carousel of images from the party. "What a year it has been."
A few days after the holiday party, Melissa celebrated a major moment in her career: the official launch of her cookie company, Sprinkle by MG.
"Introducing Sprinkle by MG!" Melissa captioned a carousel of images on Instagram announcing the cookie brand on December 10. "My passion for sprinkle cookies is finally available for you! With [Sprinkle by MG] The ultimate sprinkle butter cookie that’s as chic as it is delicious! Trust me... you will NOT want to throw these in the garbage."
Just a few days later, Melissa posted a video of her cookie boxes lined up on the counter.
"[First] round going out today!!!" she wrote in the caption. "We are overwhelmed with joy that we will be in your homes for the holidays..."
Melissa added that she hopes that the dessert company will become one that she can ultimately pass down to her daughter, Antonia Gorga.
"My true passion is my family. Being able to show my daughter the power of hard work is more fulfilling than anything," she wrote on Instagram on December 14. "Having her watch me build businesses right in front of her eyes that hopefully one day will become hers is the magic of it all."
