How To Pick a Good Father’s Day Gift This Year

Picking a Father’s Day gift can be tough and most of the time we just end up giving the dads in our lives a new tie or gift card. However, here are a few ideas for picking a great gift this year.

 

Sophisticated Dad: if you have a classical or sophisticated dad, try going with a box of cigars or a whiskey cup.

 

DIY Dad: if you have a DIY dad who loves to do everything himself, try purchasing a beer making kit on Amazon. The gift is fun, unique and tasty.

 

Active Dad: if you have an active and techie dad who loves stats, try going with a Fitbit health monitor. The wrist monitors cost in the $100 range and monitor your steps, sleep, heart rate and a other things. The active and tech dad would love it.

Simple Spring Cleaning Tips

It’s that time gain—no, not beach season. It’s time for spring cleaning; the most glorious time of the year for the “neat freaks” of the world. However, we do realize not everyone is thrilled with the prospect of deep cleaning their apartment. Here are three spring cleaning tips to try during your next deep clean.

 

Refrigerator cleaning: the easiest and most natural way to clean a refrigerator (do you really want to use chemicals where your food is stored?) is by using a combination of salt and soda water.

 

Drapes: if your drapes are looking dull throw them in the dryer on air-fluff with a wet towel for 15 minutes. They’ll instantly get clean and look livelier.

 

Garbage disposal: running lemon rinds through a smelly garbage disposal with some cold water immediately after will freshen up the area.

Where To Wine and Dine Near Fullerton

Many of us spend our time eating out at fast food restaurants or moderately priced sit down restaurants. And while those places can be tasty and a great place to eat at, sometimes we need to go all out and have a fine dining experience straight out of the movies. Getting dressed up and visiting an ultra-fancy and expensive restaurant is always a great reminder of why you work so hard. An expensive and well-cooked steak is something dreams are made of. Here is a quick list of three fine-dining restaurants to experience near your Fullerton apartment.

Fullerton Eats: Where to Get Pancakes

Pancakes have been a staple of the American breakfast since the Pilgrims first crossed the Atlantic and settled in American. Actually, that information may not be accurate because I do not know what the Pilgrims were eating for breakfast. What I do know, however, is that Americans love pancakes. They are so fluffy, tasty and yummy to eat on a Saturday morning. We even have a national pancake day. If you are searching for the best pancakes in Fullerton, here is a quick list of three of the best spots according to Yelp. Try them out and let us know just how good they really are.

Attend the Cal State Fullerton Symphony Orchestra’s Spring Performance

Winter is officially gone and spring is finally here. We can all wake up from our self-enforced hibernation and actually get outside and start enjoying life again. The sun is shining, the days are longer and everyone is in a great mood (well, most people anyway). This April, the University Symphony Orchestra, directed by Kimo Furumoto, will be performing live on the Cal State Fullerton campus for a number of dates, and getting out to enjoy a bit of classical music can be a great way to get into the spring spirit.

The orchestra partners with university choruses, Opera Theatre, CSUF faculty-artists, and other guest artists over the course of the season. Tickets are $15 and performances are held at the Meng Concert Hall. If you are looking to try something new this spring, this is the event to visit in Fullerton.
