Gentlmen's Game: The Picnic

Picnic are a very touchy subject for me. I have been asked to do picnics before, but the though of me sitting on grass in my premium denim or getting dirt on my Jordans makes me cringe. But at last, I have come to realize picnics are almost mandatory in dating "neo-soul women" (see next week’s post how to bag a neo-soul chick) or women who own dogs. If you’re going to do it you might as well do it in style. The upside to picnics is they are an inexpensive way to rack up the cool points. It’s the summer so whether you’re in DC or NYC there is plenty of public places with great scenery to choose from. If you want to keep it safe- ask her what she likes. (Is it me are do all educated Black women love guacamole, maybe it is a new aphrodisiac- so be sure to throw that in there). Be creative, I don’t think store bought fried chicken will impress her. Try fresh fruits and champagne. There are all sorts of sleek picnic basket out there. My personal favorite is in picture. It runs about $200. (cop here) The trunk comes with two wine glasses, two melamine plates, cutlery, a corkscrew, two cotton napkins and salt and pepper shakers. It has a fold out table attached with it is well. And fellas remember “Life is a gentlemen’s game!!”
