Enjoy eating al fresco before it’s too late. Grab your fam or a few friends and some great food. Head out to a nearby beach, park or even your own backyard! Some of my favorite childhood memories involve the outdoor breeze and a cozy blanket near water. With so many extended cousins no wonder all my relatives insisted on have all family festivities take place outside.
Great things to take with you on a picnic:
Ice packs or frozen juice boxes
Plastic or reusable glasses/plates
Blanket
Hand sanitizer
Sunscreen
Sunhat
Cooler
Not so great items for a picnic:
Chocolate/ice cream (anything that melts)
Mayo based salads
Anything that needs to be cut
Eggs
Dressing
My Favorites:
Peasant’s meal- charcuterie, great cheeses
Nuts
Fruits and veggies
Lemon
Lots of water and beverages
Pasta/green salads
Sandwiches
Crackers/chips
Flavored mineral water
Fresh flowers
Jams/chutneys (fig or quince is my go-t0)
