Just because you are "roughing it" in the woods with your tent and sleeping bag does NOT mean you must be stuck eating only trail mix. Having a camping stove is a necessity when campground camping. I definitely wouldn't truck this stove around while backpacking, but if you're driving to your campsite, you can pack whatever you want.

Last week I told you about a friend who asked to borrow a sturdy, but stylish tablecloth to cover the campground's picnic table. I do not camp and have nothing to lend her, so I asked you to help me find one. You looked for a reliable, cotton, vinyl, or linen tablecloth that is fun, colorful, and outdoorsy.

Even if it's just an overnight trip, you'll still reap the benefits of getting away from it all, falling asleep to the sound of crickets or waves, and lounging on the beach for a day. Think it's out of reach?

When planning a camping trip, select a menu before you leave the house and get as much as you can done in advance. For a weekend getaway, you should prep Friday & Saturday dinners and Saturday & Sunday breakfasts and lunches. For Friday afternoon's arrival at the campground, have a cooler of store bought snacks ready.

The next time you're camping, serve grilled lettuce instead of a predictable side salad. Grilled lettuce makes for an excellent twist on a salad and it's deliciously crisp. Make the blue cheese dressing and bacon crumbles before you leave for the campground and pack both in your cooler with the lettuce.

If you can't make it camping — or if you're like PartySugar and don't enjoy camping — this set of four glass camping plates will allow you to bring the campground home. Designed by Caroline Wolfe, these are hand-painted with icons reminiscent of camp. The whole set is $60, which is more than a night under the stars, but they'll last a lot longer.

In my opinion, camping trips should always involve a lot of alcoholic beverages. For the gourmet-like menu that you'll be enjoying over the weekend, lots of beer, wine, soda, and water (sparkling and still) will be necessary. To chill all of these beverages you will need several coolers with lots of ice so be sure to delegate.
