The deck and stunning view of the Queensboro Bridge
As my epic summer in New York comes to a close, I have to start saying goodbye to some of the most amazing people I’ve ever met. Sorry if I’m gushing, but the American Society of Magazine Editors internship program has become my heart and soul. We are all going our separate ways this weekend—Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, California—so of course we had to have one last hoorah and threw a BBQ.
Everyone brought a little somethin’ somethin’ and we dug right in. It wasn’t until I was elbow deep in ground beef and seasoning that someone realized the tank was out on the grill. After a few frustrating minutes, we decided to pan sear the burgers, toast the buns, boil up some 100 calorie turkey dogs and caramelize onions. Who cares if the grill isn't working as long as as the food still gets cooked, right?

Two of the best, Berna & Nikki
None of the food was all that fancy, but I was pleasantly surprised when it all turned out delicious. We seasoned the meat with random things from the cabinet and just hoped for the best. We sipped mimosas while we cooked and just enjoyed spending time relaxing with one another.
I think the highlight of my day, however, were those gosh darn turkey dogs. For once in my adult life I didn't feel bad about slobbering on the ketchup or going back for seconds. (Okay, maybe I had thirds.)

Our burgers are super fancy, not.
On a random side note, I feel like I see more people from my hometown here in New York City than anywhere else. An old friend, Robyn, stopped by to get in on the grub and relax out on the deck.
