11 Things to Do with Your Best Friend This Year

Go on a Trip
In a perfect world we’d plan a bestie trip to Europe or Mexico. But if a weeklong jaunt is out of the question, a touristy day in your own city will more than suffice. 

Volunteer Together 
Find a soup kitchen or other charity in your area and lend a hand. You’ll feel great doing it and can absolutely toast your philanthropic spirit with a glass of wine afterward. 

Start a 2-Person Article Club  
Book clubs are great, but article clubs (where you read and discuss longform articles) are an even better option for a couple of pals who want to swap thoughts without the hassle of wrangling 12 busy women every month. 

Have a 3-Hour Brunch 
A long, meandering catch-up sesh is approximately 30 times better over eggs Benedict and a mimosa…or three. 

Binge-Watch a TV Series Together 
If you live in the same city, watch it on one of your couches. If you don’t, check in between episodes via text. 

Talk Her Off a Ledge
Whether it's convincing her that her child's not a psychopath or giving her the courage to finally quit her job.

Get Each Other Ready for a Night Out
Copy the makeover shows you used to watch together and finally make her try out that bold lip you know will look so gorgeous.

Try a New Workout
Because let’s be honest: There’s no way you’re trying that Latin dance cardio class without having someone to laugh with when you discover you have less rhythm than a toddler. 

Celebrate Your Friendaversary
Whether you guys came into each other’s lives later in life or you’ve been kicking it since preschool, commemorate your love with a day dedicated to doing your favorite things.
