Have you ever celebrated Galentine’s day? It was started by Amy Poehler’s character Leslie Knope on Parks and Recreation. On February 13th, Leslie rounds up all of her friends (away from guys and significant others) to gather around a table for a celebration of the power of friendship and the strength of women. The fictional holiday has gained popularity over the past few years, not only due to Leslie’s likability, but because there are never enough ways to let your friends know you love them.
For me, Valentine’s day has always been about celebrating the people I care about: usually focusing on family and friends. With that idea in mind, here are a few fun cards Nicole and I found if you want to send a note to a great friend. - Claire
I 100% support the idea of sending my friends adorable cards in the mail for holidays and birthdays. However, I’m notoriously bad at mailing things within a reasonable time frame... So as an alternative, I plan on calling Claire to partake in our favorite tradition of aimless walks filled with great conversations and coffee. Since we live on separate coasts we frequently try to talk on the phone while doing the same activities we would do if we are hanging out in person. It makes it feel like we are side by side and not a few thousand miles away from each other. - Nicole
