Romantic partners often exchange chocolates, bouquets, and heartfelt cards for Valentine’s Day, which happens on February 14. However, there wasn't a special day for those who want to celebrate their platonic love for their friends until the second season of Parks and Recreation, when the main character, Leslie Knope (played by the hilarious Amy Poehler), invented Galentine’s Day for “ladies celebrating ladies. Many fans and friends now celebrate it on February 13, so in honor of this unofficial holiday, we’ve collected 15 different gifts for you to give your best friend this year to show how much you genuinely love them.

1. Long-Distance Friendship Lamp; From $125

Though many of us have friends that live in different cities, states, or countries, it can be hard to feel as connected to them as you were when you lived near each other. These long-distance friendship lamps can help let your friend know you’re thinking of them. When you touch yours, theirs will light up. If you’re part of a friend group that’s spread out, you can connect multiple lamps and assign colors to each person.

2. Leslie Knope-Inspired Galentine's Day Card; $7

We couldn’t have a list about Galentine's Day without paying homage to the creator herself. Even if your friend isn’t a fan of Parks and Recreation, they can still enjoy the card's vibrant colors and unique design. The inside is blank, so you can tell your friend how much they mean to you, like how Leslie loves overly complimenting her best friend, Ann Perkins (played by Rashida Jones).
