plan picnics and bbqs

Action

Prepare food and go eat it with friends in a park or forest.

Discussion

Somewhere along the way it became unthought-of to enjoy food that you prepared yourself with friends in the outdoors. You had to spend a lot of money sitting indoors at a restaurant where someone else prepared the food. I suspect this has something to do with advertising. We all consume “stories” of sexy people going to restaurants and bars in groups. We don’t consume “stories” of people having picnics.

This is because The System can’t sell us picnics. Picnics belong to the informal economy, which The System wants to stamp out wherever it can.
