Weekend To-Dos
Welcome back to this week’s edition of The Three Things You Have to Do This Weekend. This week: Super F—ing Hot Outside edition. Expect your activities to be a feeble attempt at forgetting that we’re all currently living inside my mother’s rice cooker.
1) Pool-Pong
Assuming you don’t live in my labor camp of an apartment complex that requires people to leave the fun at the entrance gates (No diving? No inflatable toys? No glass shards? What is this, Communist Russia?), grab one of these sweet Port-o-Pongs and get playing. Best parts about the Port-o-Pong? Cup holders to deter spillage, easily stored, and you don’t have to ever leave the table to pee. Grab your most competitive friends and some sunscreen and get your pong on!
2) Go to the Drive-In
The Expendables is out, and if you haven’t seen it yet, then a) I hate you and b) go see it. And since the night air is still hot as balls, going to a drive in with friends is a great way to watch this ultimate bad-ass action flick. Go to Drive-ins.com to find your local open air theater and don’t forget snacks, beer, and a sober driver. The best part about the drive-in? You NEVER have to leave the movie to pee!
3) Make some delicious fish tacos
Let’s talk about seafood, guys. I am a person who, honestly, isn’t the hugest fan of food that to me smells like the dead rotting fish flesh that you find tangled up in seaweed on the beach. However, as time goes on we learn that our under the sea friends have far more health benefits (mainly related to the high concentration of fish oil heavy Omega-3s) than we ever knew before. So I’m trying here. For those of you who share my picky attitude towards fish, try out this recipe for Baja style fish tacos – they’re battered and fried and can be topped with salsa and avocado — completely masking the fish taste, and helping you get used to what could someday be your new favorite food. Try out this recipe at FoodNetwork.com, accompany them with some rice, beans, and Pacificos, because Corona is not a man’s beer, and you are a man.
See you Monday, Weekend Warriors!
