Jewy Valentine’s Day Cards For Everyone in Your Life

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. And while tagging someone in an Instagram is romantic (if you’re into public displays of affection), the cards I get from my grandmas every year are the highlights of my Valentine’s Day.

In honor of my grandmas and bubbes everywhere, here are the Jewiest cards to send to the loved ones in your life (romantic or not).

1. For the person who you’re not sure you’re officially dating yet: Challah at me (etsy, $4.50)

A Humble Request:
Hey Alma's content is free because we believe everybody deserves to be a part of our radically inclusive Jewish community. Reader donations help us do that. Will you give what you can to keep Hey Alma open to all? (It's a mitzvah, ya know.)

2. For your best friend/partner/anyone tbh: Drake (etsy, $5.87)
