Maine To-Do List: 3.5.10

You blinked, and then it was Friday. Usually, that feeling is a good thing, but this week, you could use a few extra hours in your days. Since you're beyond stressed out, it's more important than ever that you blow off some steam this weekend. Here are a few creative ways to get out in the great Pine Tree State. Enjoy. And relax!

Eat ME
Maine Restaurant Week isn't over yet, so take advantage of the lunch and dinner specials at eateries from Bangor to Kennebunk. Just be sure to call ahead. This event — which offers three-course dinners for special prices that range from $20.10 to $40.10, as well as $15.10 lunches — is understandably popular, and you don't want to be left hungry.
Where: Statewide(ish)
When: Through March 10

Drink ME
St. Patrick's Day is almost here, so why not start the celebration early with Black Bear Brewery's Demon Stout. It'll take the edge off a chilly Maine evening, too.

When: Now

Web: n/a

Read to ME
The National Endowment for the Arts' Poetry Out Loud competition could not be cooler — high school students statewide compete in a recitation and they're really, really good. This year's final is tonight in the Waterville Opera House, so go show these young creatives some support.
