Spring is here. The grass is green. The birds and the bees
are doing it. Why aren’t you?
It’s the first day of spring and it’s time to come out of
hibernation. For months you’ve been hanging around inside the house each night
watching all the episodes of “Homeland” that you’ve got on your DVR. But now
that it’s light out until eight o’clock at night in some corners of the world,
isn’t it time to get out and get back into action.
Whether you’re single or in a relationship, spring is great
time to jump start your dating life. Make a date and have some fun. We’ve got some great Spring date ideas to get
you out of your winter rut.
Grab coffee or wine at a sidewalk café. Okay, so
you may have to bundle up, but the smells of spring in the air will make it
worthwhile and you can take the pups and let them hang out under the table.
Go the local Farmers Market. Spring vegetables
like asparagus and strawberries are already in season. Make a date to go
shopping and then make a meal out of your purchases.
Bundle up for a beach walk. You’ll probably have
to leave your string bikini at home, but even without sunscreen a beach walk is
always romantic.
Go on a hike. There are so many trails that are
available for walks in your local area. Take a pair of binoculars to check out
the birds that have returned from winter migration
Plan a picnic. You can go elegant with cucumber
sandwiches and petit fours or do it simple with PB&J and a couple of cans
of Coors. Whichever way suits your style, make plans to get out and eat al
fresco.
Follow your favorite food truck. Winter isn’t
the time to stand in long lines to wait for delicious street food, but now that
the weather is warmer there’s no reason you shouldn’t seek out your favorite
food truck and place your order.
Plant a garden. What a great idea for a first
date, symbolically planting the seeds of a relationship. You don’t have to have
a little patch of grass of your own. You can plant herbs almost anywhere in a
container garden.
Find a street festival or renaissance fair in
your area. You’ll both have so much fun eating food and dancing to music by
bands that you’ve never heard of before.
Go on a winery tour. No matter where you live
there has to be a great little winery bottling the magic potion that makes
every date a little more fun.
Check out an outdoor movie. Ok, so in some parts
of the world it may be too early to sit outside in the dark, but you can turn
you own backyard into a movie theatre and show classics on the side of your
garage. The benefit will be snuggling in the dark in order to stay warm.
