Choose one each day and begin. 1. Make a completely vegan meal on the grill. 2. Squeeze fresh lemonade. Drink some while reading a new magazine. 3. Go to a baseball game. Eat lunch from a vendor you haven’t tried before. 4. Take a long walk on the beach while you’re dreaming up new adventures. 5. Plant a garden…indoor or outdoor. 6. Try a new hairstyle or hair color. 7. Host a rummage sale…or piggyback on a friend’s sale. 8. Visit a new town. Eat someplace that the locals enjoy. 9. Volunteer for something in your community. 10. Learn how to refinish an old piece of furniture. And then do it. 11. Go to the library and attend a book reading or one of their other informational events. 12.
