Where to Get Your Easter Meals
Alright, guys, Easter is just around the corner and I'm pretty sure a lot of y'all are making plans for how to celebrate Easter right in your own home. If you were aware, the Catholic Church basically canceled Easter but that doesn't mean you can't celebrate it on your own. So the first thing you have to do is recreate the battle for a space in Brackenridge Park in your own house. I don't know which family member you're going to volunteer for that but y'all better draw straws to determine who will camp out in the backyard.
Now, to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus ( I'm not trying to Peddle religion here but Easter is kind of religious) in your own home but you also low-key don't want to cook I've made a list of all the restaurants and places that you need to order takeaway from to make your Easter en la casa a success. Order early to ensure that you get your spot secured!
A few tips on things to hide instead of Easter eggs before I get started: mini liquor bottles, the remote, the wifi password (after you change it) and dog treats for your dog.

Have you decided who’s camping in the backyard? I’m camping in general because I decided to take social distancing seriously and I refuse to see my family. Psych, I’ve always wanted to camp in the backyard and now I’m living my best life.
