Level up your camping game with these easy cooking hacks
If you are ready to be a campsite crowd-pleaser this August long weekend, then step up your game with a few fireside food hacks. From breakfast tips to late-night snacks, give one of these suggestions a try this August long weekend. Try making your pancake batter ahead of time. Use a dollar store or empty condiment container with a squirt lid, a to-go shake container or even a large, resealable plastic bag. Mix the batter together — with milk or eggs if your recipe calls for them — and store in a refrigerated area. When you're ready to fire up the griddle for breakfast, open the squirt lid or snip a small hole into the plastic bag and easily pour out your pancakes. Want a cutlery-free way to eat your eggs in the morning? Turn an omelette into a wrap. Add eggs to a bowl and whisk them. Add in any spices you desire to the egg mixture. On a cutting board, prep any toppings you desire, such as shredded cheese, peppers, olives, onion, tomatoes or mushrooms. To assemble, add the eggs to a warm skillet. They will cook quickly. Then add the toppings to the skillet. Stick a soft tortilla shell on top and let it cook for less than a minute. Flip it over and cook on the other side. Wrap it up and enjoy. Adults can look sophisticated around a campfire by making savoury s'mores. Grab some Babybel, Halloumi or brie cheese and stick it onto a roasting stick. Put it over the campfire to start melting the cheese. Once it's done, grab a cracker and add some deli meat to compliment the flavour. Turn a regular hot dog into an upscale pig-in-a-blanket. Keep instant crescent dough chilled and grab some hot dogs to roll them into the sheet of dough. Pinch the seams together well so the dog doesn't escape. Stick the combo onto a roasting stick and cook over low coals. Rotate the crescent dogs frequently until golden brown and cooked through. Step up your s'more game by using a waffle or sugar cone instead of crackers. Grab an empty ice cream cone and add some marshmallows, followed by dessert toppings like sprinkles, chocolate chips, M&M's, cookie bits, gummy worms, fruit or whatever you can dream up. Wrap the filled cone in tin foil and throw it into the campfire coals for five to seven minutes. Carefully remove and unwrap — but be aware it may be hot for some time. If your marshmallows are stale or if you don't have any chocolate on hand, there's a quick fix from the grocery store. Marshmallow fluff or Nutella can add spreadable sweetness to your s'mores. If using marshmallow fluff, try the viral Reese's Peanut Butter Cup trick: The chocolate cup goes onto the roasting stick first, then it's dunked into the marshmallow fluff and roasted in the fire. Slide it onto graham crackers once it's done. To keep those pesky mosquitoes away, especially when cooking, try burning some herbs in your fire during the peak bug time at dusk. Mosquitoes detest strong herbs like lavender, mint, lemon balm, sage and citronella. Bundle the herbs together and put the leaves to the side of the fire, rather than directly in the centre so it doesn't burn too quickly. The smoke carries the smell and mosquitoes should leave you alone. Depending on the size of your fire, you can use a little or large bundle of herbs. Keep a few bundles handy to continually toss into the fire as needed. You can also bundle the herbs in some tin foil and add some olive oil to help the herbs burn longer. Enjoy your long weekend.

Olivia Rodrigo always carries cheese in her handbag to remind her of childhood
Olivia Rodrigo always carries cheese in her handbag to remind her of her childhood. The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, 22, made the admission while speaking on Vogue's 'In the Bag' video series, in which celebrities share the contents of their handbags. She said about what she always carries: 'I love Babybel so much. I love eating it and I love playing with the wax and making wax statues out of it.' Olivia, who brought a vintage cheetah-printed Fendi bag to the Vogue shoot, said she regularly travels with a Babybel cheese tucked inside. She also explained that the snack wasn't just about taste — it was also a nostalgic habit that brought her closer to friends. 'My friends make fun of me for it, especially this one because they think it's particularly elementary,' she said. Olivia added: 'We would trade each other little statues that we made out of (the red wax covering). I don't even remember what we made — we must have been really creative 'cause this is not very malleable. (I) always keep that locked and loaded.' The 'Bad Idea Right?' and 'Vampire' singer's bag also contained more typical items, including a wide-brimmed hat, over-the-ear Bluetooth headphones, a Lâncome Juicy Tube lip gloss attached to her keys, playing cards, a tea bag, a journal, sunglasses and various makeup products. Olivia has become known for her mix of classic and contemporary style and her love of vintage handbags. On 25 April, she was photographed carrying Chanel's 'Nubuck Natural' Beauty Tote Bag in black suede, dating back to 2012, while out in New York City. She paired the accessory with a sleeveless black shirt, khaki trousers and black-and-white Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Canvas Low Top Sneakers. The day before, on 24 April, Olivia attended the Planned Parenthood Gala, where she received the 2025 Catalyst of Change award for her advocacy on reproductive rights. At the event, she wore Gucci's Horsebit gown in ivory, accessorised with a custom reflective silver version of the brand's Bamboo Night Small Glossed-Leather Shoulder Bag.

Olivia Rodrigo Keeps an Emergency Cheese Inside Her Vintage Bag
'I've been so into animal print lately,' Olivia Rodrigo says of her vintage leopard print Fendi bag—a gift from a friend. But not only is it fashionable, it's functional. 'I kinda schlep around a lot of stuff,' she admits. Rodrigo loves all things cute, and the contents of her bag more than prove it. Take her phone, which she keeps in a maroon puffer case. 'It reminds me of like a little jacket to keep my phone warm,' she says. (Her screen time? Only four hours. Talk about a brag!) On her keys, she affixed a little bear keychain she got in Japan. She also got a matching one for her best friend. 'It has a little hat that comes off,' Rodrigo coos. 'I love when they have accessories and you can dress them up.' Don't worry, though, the bear isn't lonely: she also has a bunny that she got in Amsterdam (yes, it has a hat, too). 'I'm obsessed with this game called Cambio,' Rodrigo says, pulling a deck of playing cards from her purse. While she admits that she can't find the rules online, she teaches the English pub game to members of her tour and friends around the world. Though she claims she's gatekeeping the rules, 'I am spreading the word, spreading the gospel about this game. It's so much fun, it's addicting.' With random spurts of free time on tour, Rodrigo also keeps a book handy. Her latest read was gifted to her by the singer St. Vincent, who inadvertently helped inspire Rodrigo's song 'All-American Bitch' by giving her Joan Didion's Slouching Towards Bethlehem. '[A teenage hippie] called their mom an 'all-American bitch,' and I thought that that was really cool,' she says, 'so I circled it.' Here, watch Olivia Rodrigo show us the contents of her bag, from the Babybel cheese she's obsessed with to her favorite fragrance.
