As nice as it would be to pack up and go to Palm Springs, not all of us can.

Life gets in the way.

I know I personally can’t afford to right now. And even if I could, I doubt that the manfriend could take the time to get away from work.

That doesn’t mean that we can’t start making summer memories now. With all this nice weather, I’ve really been wanting to go to the beach. Since that’s not really always an option, I decided to do just that by bringing the beach to me.

BBQ style.

I grabbed a blanket, and some 20 oz bottles of Coca-Cola™ (which I like better because you can take them with you incase you do decide to go somewhere. Check out the Best Summer Ever Deals at your local CVS. Buy 2 20oz bottles of Coca-Cola products for $3! I also got a ton of ExtraCare coupons because I stop there so much).

The bottles have song lyrics on them and they help bring life to any summer gathering. I mean, with lyrics from songs like Summertime, how could they not? (Plus, if you download the Shazam App on your phone you can get the song!)

Kick off your shoes.

Add some tunes.

Fire up the grill.

Share a Coke and a song, and start making some memories!
