Why best picnic ideas?... As much as we love a good picnic, picnic food ideas were always the first thoughts when I was growing up having family picnics...
But then, the first picnic I was responsible for… everything from that family picnic food and the things we had to take…
I didn't know where to start for the best picnic ideas!
It was so much stress... so I do understand how you could be feeling!
The best picnic ideas for those old family picnics were quite simple... but
now ideas are more sophisticated... something really special!
Even a quick last-minute picnic will have delicious picnic food ideas... and a bottle of wine. And often a lovely rug, or fun table cloth on a picnic table. It was always a mug of tea or water back then... no picnic wine!
Just look at this quick picnic basket we had recently... I'll share the food for this picnic basket.
