Weekend’s on first.
Your Perks: 1) A bunch of rare all-black vintage Rolexes. People will stare. In a good way. 2) Earbuds that don’t use wires to attach to your music player. They were holding you back. 3) These are lighter cufflinks. The name tells you all you need to know.
Hey. New ice cream. It’s called Roomies, and you can find it starting tonight at the Farmers Market. Just look for the little stand that’s doling out waffle cones of tres leches and peanut butter ice cream. And then get both. Because you have two hands, see.
On Friday, Grapevine Craft Brewery opens the doors to its new taproom and beer garden. There you can sample beers while listening to live music and eating things from food trucks in what’s perhaps the most weekend-y combo of activities.
You can get a good haircut and shave at the Gents Place. This Friday, you can also get a good margarita and a smaller-than-usual hamburger. That’s because they’re hosting a party with tequila drinks and food from Easy Slider. Your barber only wants the best for you.
You’re familiar with Slip ’N Slides. Well, this thing is basically a 1,000-foot Slip ’N Slide, and it’s coming to Oak Cliff this weekend for your amusement. That’s it, really. Have fun.
Bastille Day is this Tuesday, which means Bastille on Bishop is also this Tuesday. Good. Now, here’s your
primer:
To eat: Mussels, crepes and macarons.
To drink: Plenty of French wine.
To do: Shop some vendors, dance in the streets and play pétanque.
But first: look up rules to pétanque.
