Read a novel: If you love to read but don’t take much time for it, make it a goal to read a novel during the month of February.
Bake your favorite dessert: Speaking of treating yourself, why not bake your favorite dessert. What’s your pleasure? Cherry pie, chocolate cake, a Vanilla Crème Brûlée? Whatever flavor you savor, let yourself indulge in something delicious.
Eat vegetarian for the entire month: There are some pretty delicious vegetarian recipes out there, so why not add some healthy dishes to your menu this month?
Start a new skincare routine: Get glowing skin with a new skincare routine. You can even start a minimal routine to get into the habit of it.
