The next commercialized holiday is just around the corner, and if you are single or don't want to indulge in the usual romance of Valentine's Day, may I suggest you celebrate Galentine's Day?

Galentine's Day was first brought to the mainstream by Leslie Knope on the beloved hit TV show, Parks & Rec. Leslie is corny and overly mushy, but she wanted to celebrate a day of love and recognition to all the girlfriends in her life. What a sweet thought and gesture.

There are many fun gifts you can bestow on your besties, if, however, you don't want to be like Leslie Knope and give each of your girlfriends a "bouquet, hand-crocheted flower pens, or a handwritten 5,000 essay of why your friends are so awesome", I have 3 suggestions for a social distance COVID-19-friendly BFF Valentine's Day party.
