Guests arrive at dusk to string lights, blankets on the grass and a warm drink. Each one builds a star wheel that shows the sky over your home on any night of the year. As the sky darkens, everyone lies back on the blankets and uses their wheels to find the Big Dipper, the North Star and more. Anyone who likes can pin a constellation into a paper lantern. Supper is cozy and easy to eat outdoors, with a lavender fizz made with or without alcohol.
