go urban camping tonight!

NYC Skyline

Just when my guy and I thought our crazy New York schedules would leave no time for adventure, we discovered urban camping! On my rooftop in Brooklyn, surrounded by tall neighboring buildings and a sky dotted by artificial light, the great outdoors came to us!

You can go, too! Here’s what you’ll need:
- a blanket large enough for you and your sweetie to sit on
- a S’more Maker (Available at Target stores)
- matches
- a box of honey graham crackers
- a bag of marshmallows
- two chocolate bars

Pick your ideal place for your night picnic, whether it be a park, your guy’s house, or even your own backyard. Spread your blanket on the ground and place the S’more maker on top. Open the S’more ingredients and distribute them into the little compartments surrounding the mini-grill. Light the grill (Be careful! Maybe just make him do it!) and start roasting those marshmallows!

Relax, enjoy his company, and have a blast! Don’t be afraid to be messy. The best part about urban camping is coming home to your own shower, comfy bed, and hair tools!

So tell me, do you have any ideas for a summer adventure?
