The 4 F’s of Picnic-ing…FOOD, FASHION, FRIENDS, FUN

Every Thursday, it seems, I begin thinking, in ernest, about my weekend plans and my weekend EATING plans. (I wouldn’t have to worry about this at all, of course, if I were to hand things over to Pamela Croft of Dinner at Home.) That said, I often turn to my trusty copy of Gourmet Magazine, which this month features some outstanding ideas for PICNICS (August 2008). I especially liked the idea of putting your picnic food in the handy-dandy jars they suggest on page 46 (“Picnic in the Glass”). Also, there are some great photos of picnic spreads on p. 88. I paid attention to the recipe for Zucchini Carpaccio as I am a huge zucchini fan.

But a great picnic isn’t just about the FOOD, after all….it is also about the Fashion, the Friends, and the FUN.

For FASHION, check out these brand new Vadiar Designs beach wraps….there’s no surprise that we are thinking green these days….perfect for a lawn picnic, or beach picnic….
