Enjoy the rest of the summer! Don’t forget to go outside, have a picnic, and get some fresh air before it is too late.
Culture Buzz Who said summer has to be about campfires, bug juice, and swimming? This extensive list of extreme summer camps will trade in the s’mores and water guns for other signature summer fun like Scientology lessons and “dietary restriction-themed storybooks.” For example, at the Ted Nugent Kamp For Kids, the staff “gets kids out of the malls and off the streets, into the woods and in touch with the natural healing powers of the wild.” And then they shoot animals in cold blood.
Style Buzz Plastic sunglasses with an asymmetric shape and photochromatic lenses that adapt to the light. These lopsided glasses will undoubtedly distract from your already-lopsided face.
Culture Buzz A portable, laptop-sized grill only costs $48 and makes a perfect father’s day present. It’s like the MacBook Air of the mobile meat set. Great for camping, picnics, and terraces.
Food Buzz Charcoal schmarcoal! This barbecue in a box replaces charcoal and lighter fluid with biodegradable paper pulp that is both recyclable and free of chemicals. Even better, it will keep your meat from tasting like a car engine.
Food Buzz A hot dog wrapped in ground beef then deep-fried, topped with chili, cheese, grilled onions, and served in a hoagie roll. It was very difficult trying to find an appetizing photo of something that sounds so insanely delicious. You know it’s summer when you’re stuffing a giant hamdog in your face!
Style Buzz Men’s tailored suits with shorts instead of pants. Business up top, party down low! I knew it wouldn’t be long before the romper trend crossed over into men’s fashion.
Food Buzz New York gets a picnic club, self-described as “a members-only club dedicated to the enjoyment and promotion of the classic picnic.” ?
