SUMMER SLUMMING – Food/Picnics – wear your Vadiar Designs beach wrap at your next beach picnic
You know, summertime is all about being lazy…..but we want to look GOOD, ya know, while slumming. Vadiar Designs beach wraps (which as you know, by now, are worn at the beach or just for a beach-chee feeling, or beachy mood, or beachy LOOKafterall…..ya know what I’m talkin’ about?)
So – to get with the whole BEACH FLAVOR (and I DO mean flavor…..) ya gotta do the picnic thing and have some really good food. Which brings me to the whole reason for THIS POST – to introduce you to yet ANOTHER friend of Vadiar Designs. These are very generous and wonderful people, you know…..this generous and wonderful person happens to know about FOOD- please meet (drum roll please)….….. Pamela Croft of Dinner at Home. Now, dinner at home is one thing… (you could wear one of those Vadiar Wraps in a very special way, ladies… do I need to elaborate on this?) and then dinner at the beach is yet another thing…..
Pam has been wonderful to provide all of us with a great recipe from her vast store-house of cooking knowledge for not only dinner at home but also food away from home…such as picnic food. Thank you, Pam. Please note the photo of Pam, but also (ahem…..) Pam’s CLONE – Chef Pamela sock monkey. (You likely saw the similarities – the red hair, chef’s apron….and also the similarities to the other friends of Vadiar Designs…..BIG APPLE MONKEYS … you should let me know if you want one, too, and they can be custom made to be your clone! Wow!)
Great food from Dinner at Home…..wearing a Vadiar Designs beach wrap…with a sock monkey buddy at your side….. Life is good!
