5 Great Outside-the-Box Dates

Need some inspiration on what to do with your [potential] SO?  Here are my latest and greatest ideas for the perfect date:

1. Brunch
Brunch is always fun.  It's fun if you make it and fun if you go out.  It's fun if you're gluten-free (eggs) and if you love the gluten (pancakes/waffles)!  It's especially fun with bottomless mimosas.  You get the picture.  Plus, if you end up marrying this person, it's a good test run of what your Sunday afternoons will eventually be like.

2. Western Wear
The point here is not so much the destination (although line dancing/two-step places are lots of fun) but to dress like a cowboy and get your girlfriend to dress like a cowgirl.  Why?  Why not!  You probably are both going to look hot with cowboy boots and cowboy hats on, so embrace it.  Take some two-step lessons for extra style points.

3. Bicycle Tour
Go somewhere on bicycles.  You can find the best local bike trail and see where it leads, or design a custom tour, on side roads, of an area of your choice.  Get creative!  All you need are two two-wheelers and a bright sunny day.

4. The Bank
Why not explore your favorite financial establishments?  This could be a great way to start the conversation about money and your financial goals.  Many marriages struggle over questions of money, so this is something you want to figure out as soon as possible!

5. April 25
It's not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.
