15 Galentine's Day Memes That Show Your Girl Squad Some Love
Leslie Knope was the sun around which Parks and Recreation revolved. She had more spunk in her little finger than the rest of Pawnee combined and when it came to giving presents, no one could top Leslie's thoughtful gifts. As a matter of fact, she loved giving presents so much that she created Galentine's Day, a holiday in which women celebrate women while eating mountains of waffle. Although you may not have time to plan an elaborate breakfast gathering like Leslie, you can send Galentine's Day memes to your friends as reminder that they are beautiful sunflowers in your life.
According to Leslie, Galentine's Day is a day devoted to "ladies celebrating ladies." Essentially, "it's like Lilith Fair, minus the angst. Plus frittatas." Celebrated on Feb. 13, it's a day for women to gather in honor of their friendship and celebrate each other with gifts and waffles. However, these rules aren't all hard and fast. Galentine's Day is about celebrating friendship, and if you and your girl squad rather have martinis instead of pancakes, then you do you. The only rule that can't be altered is valuing your friendship.
Even if you can't be with your besties this Feb. 13, let them know you're thinking of them by sending one of these 15 Galentine's Day memes.
