THINGS TO DO WHEN BORED
Things To Do With Friends
1. Make it feel like you're in a spa. It might be as simple as putting your feet up and putting on a face mask, or it can be as complicated as foot soaks, massage trains, and hair masks.
2. Take a walk. Get some exercise while conversing and marvelling at houses in a lovely park or neighbourhood (my favourite part).
3. Participate in a game. Games are a terrific boredom buster for friends, whether it's cards, a board game, beer pong, or old-fashioned hide and seek.
4. Hold a film marathon. If you don't have the energy to be active, that's fine. With a hot bag of popcorn and a bottle of wine, watch each Harry Potter film in succession. Alternatively, get some ideas from this list of the top 90s movies.
5. Watch a video of a cardio-dance workout. Because dancing parties are always more fun when you're with your buddies.
6. Mix up some seasonal drinks. Use your prettiest glasses and the freshest ingredients to make this one special. Then raise your glass to your friendship.
7. Locate the nearest beach or swimming pool. It's never too late to have a good time in the water with your best buddies. Just remember to bring everything you'll need—this list of beach essentials will come in handy!
8. Visit a local restaurant that you've never been to before. Get out of your comfort zone and try something new with your partner. On the menu, everyone orders something different.
9. Hold a wine tasting at your house. Purchase three bottles of wine: one that costs more than $20, one that costs less than $15, and one that costs less than $10. Wrap the bottles with foil, pour a sip for each guest, and guess whose wine it is. Alternatively, try a natural wine like a pèt nat to broaden your horizons!
10. Make something original. Pick a fun project at an art supply store, or go crazy with scissors and an embroidery kit on old jeans or t-shirts.
11. Begin a book discussion group. Plans often tend to fall into place better in person, so take advantage of your free time and start that book club you've been meaning to start.
12. Put together a mood board. Create a mood board as a group or individually. After that, compare and contrast.
13. Host a dinner party with people from all around the world. Create and enjoy a meal including delectable dishes from all over the world. My dream international meal includes a spicy tuna crispy rice appetiser, tableside pizza, dinner tacos, and truffle fries. Oh, and there'll be gelato for dessert.
14. Watch a TV show in one sitting. This is one of my favourite things to do with my pals when we're bored. Choose a short series and see it all in one day.
15. Arrange a lovely table and place an order for takeout. Make setting the table the most time-consuming aspect of the meal, rather than the preparation. Make use of those plates that have been gathering dust in the back of your pantry.
16. Experiment with new recipes. Because it's more enjoyable to joke about trial and error with a friend.

17. Make a dessert. I usually bake with friends so that I don't consume the full dozen cookies by myself.
18. Make your own pizza at the age of eighteen. Make your own dough from scratch or use store-bought crusts. Get personal sizes so that everyone can be as creative as they want with their toppings. It's a lot more enjoyable than Domino's.
19. Get some yoga practise in. Watch a movie or demonstrate some of your favourite flows to one other. Try corepower yoga.
20. Complete a puzzle. Call me weird, but I enjoy solving problems. Is there anyone else that gets competitive when it comes to putting the last puzzle piece in?
21. Create a new playlist with your friends. Add songs to your playlist that bring back memories of your time together and listen to them when you're away.
22. Have a fashion exhibition to clean up your closet. Remember in Sex & The City when Carrie Bradshaw moves out of her apartment and puts on all of her outfits for her friends to vote on? Yes, please do so. It was both productive and enjoyable.
23. Hold a CS taste-off of your own. Go to the shop and buy every flavour of vanilla ice cream you can find, then rank them, or get creative and try something new.
24. Do a makeover on each other. Allowing the other person to look in the mirror and/or apply their makeup and/or hair for them is not a good idea. If the results are satisfactory, go out and brag about it!
25. Take each other shopping. Pick out an outfit for each other, either online or in person, that the other person must wear out. Be nice to one other on this one, ladies.
Things To Do With Family
1. Experiment with a new family recipe. Look up some new recipes on the internet that you believe your family or significant other would like. Make a decision as a group and get cooking. To keep your prices down, consider a meal that incorporates produce that is in season.
2. Begin a Garden Select a variety of veggies, flowers, or herbs to start indoors before the growing season begins.
3. Read a book with your partner. In today's fast-paced world, reading takes a back seat. Take turns reading aloud from an engaging book or listening to an audiobook together to reconnect with your family.
4. Participate in a board game. Play a round of Yahtzee, Apples to Apples, or whatever other game your family enjoys. Find a board game that is suitable for all ages so that everyone may enjoy it.
5. Create your own greeting cards. Remove everything off the kitchen table except the construction paper, pens, and glue. Handmade cards are a one-of-a-kind method for your family to interact while also doing something creative.
6. Throw a bar-b-que party. Who doesn't enjoy a good bbq? Break out the barbecue and invite some friends and neighbours on a warm weekend. Everyone should bring a dish to share in the style of a potluck.
7. Watch movies with your family. Convert those old 8mm family videos to digital and have a movie night with your family to revisit years of family events, vacations, birthdays, and milestones.
8. Make a Family Video . Take turns shooting with your spouse as you discuss the top reasons you fell in love with each other on your smartphone. Allow your children to interview each family member over the phone to make a "documentary" of your family's life together.
9. Take a look at old photographs. Do you have crates of old photographs or a collection of old photo albums? What a wonderful day to take a trip down memory lane and reminisce about your old life and adventures. To share the memories with relatives and friends, pull them out and send them to them.
10. Build a bonfire. Gather the marshmallows, graham crackers, and chocolate and head to your backyard for a nighttime fire under the stars. Share your fondest camping moments with your kids and show them how to build a fire in the woods.
