2018 Summer Bucket List
Summer is my all-time favorite season. I’m sure this can be traced back to memories of getting out of school and savoring that oh-so-blissful feeling of complete freedom for three whole months.
Even though I now have a full-time career and consequently no summer break, June, July and August still have my heart. Warm sun, leather sandals, breezy dresses, tanned skin, beach days – all things that make me happy.
Now that summer is in full swing, I thought I’d share some of the things I’d like to tackle in the next few months. From channeling my inner Picasso, to taking a quick trip down south, here’s my official 2018 summer bucket list:
- Learn how to make these watermelon-infused cocktails, courtesy of The Zoe Report.
- Get some use out of my much neglected road bike.
- Check out what’s new at the MOMA
- Tackle my wardrobe and figure out which pieces I want to give away or sell. For tips on selling your clothes, check out this post here.
- Sign up for another Wine and Canvas class and attempt to paint something halfway decent.
- Plan a beach trip and roast marshmallows on a bonfire with all my friends.
- Throw a housewarming party.
- Fly a kite.
- Take a short trip to San Diego, home of my alma mater, and feast on fish tacos every damn day.
- Enjoy a guilt-free mid-afternoon nap.
- Go to a Giant’s baseball game and do nothing but stuff my face with garlic fries and sip on some cold beer.
- Play hooky and explore a new San Francisco neighborhood on a weekday.
- Drive down to Point Reyes and indulge in some delicious oysters topped with a spritz of lemon juice and a splash of tabasco sauce.
- Spend a weekend in Calistoga playing bocce ball and consuming copious amounts of wine.
- Plan a girls’ night out and spend 80% of the evening at home, picking out an outfit, playing with makeup, sipping on Moscow Mules and dancing around to old-school Taylor Swift with my best gal pals.
Well, there you have it! I’ll be lucky if I make it through half of these, but at least they’re now documented. What’s on your summer bucket list?
