I’m a picnic person.
Every summer, every chance I get, whether it’s a long weekend or an average weeknight, I eat my meals outside.
For the decade-plus that I’ve lived in Brooklyn, the park has been the closest thing I’ve had to a backyard, and picnics have been my go-to for every get-together (including my wedding party).
I dine in the park so often that I’ve started keeping a giant tote bag in my closet, ready and packed with all of the essentials: blanket, bug spray, plates, utensils, and—as of last year—a set of eight Falcon Enamelware tumblers.
Falcon tumblers, which I have in a rainbow of chic colors, have become the star of my picnic go-bag, eliciting compliments and cries of “where did you get these?” every time I pass them around. My guests are delighted to receive something that’s not a plastic cup. And they are charmed by the option of choosing their favorite color from hues like a moody, blue-tinged Pigeon Grey and a cheery, pastel Olive Oil green.
These tumblers are cute, durable, perfectly sized, and endlessly reusable. At every picnic, they save me from blowing through a sleeve of Solo Cups, and they come to the rescue each time someone shows up with a bottle of wine and nothing to drink out of.
