Move over Friendsgiving. Galentine's Day is on the way.
Designating Feb 13 for women has endured since 2010, when Amy Poehler's Parks and Recreation character, Leslie Knope, declared the fictional holiday her favorite day of the year on the NBC show. "Ladies celebrating ladies," Knope explained of her Galentine's breakfast bash with friends.
Since then, women in real life have embraced the idea of gathering when Valentine's Day rolls around. Galentine's Day isn't just for Feb 13, and it isn't just for dateless, single women.
