What is Galentine's day and where did it come from?
The concept of Galentine's Day was first introduced in 2010 on an episode of the TV show Parks and Recreation (Season 2, Episode 16). The character Leslie Knope (played by Amy Poehler) declares that February 13th will be "Galentine's Day" a day to celebrate her female friendships. This fun day is also known as Valentine's Eve.
The idea has since become popularised and celebrated annually by all the women around the world. This could be your favourite person, good friend, wonderful wife or any of your lady friends. Girl power!
