Baby Arugula Salad with sweet italian peppers, feta, and an anchovie lemon shallot vinaigrette

EVO whipped ricotta with black pepper crackers

Various stuff like olives, peppadew peppers, cornichons, marinated shrooms, grilled artichoke hearts

Spanish Blue Cheese - Valdeon, one of the great blues, and sliced baguette

Very nice and glad to see you take your picnicing seriously. We have been really getting into picnicing lately and have been thinking about recipes and menus to take on picnics.

It is amazing how you re-discover some things once you have kids.

Tell me about it.

Throw in some alcohol of some sort, and you got a perfect picnic.

I think you and I have been going to the same picnics. If you can't pronounce it, you don't bring it.

Everyone can pronounce potato salad, even if not everyone can spell it.

Speaking of Tub O'Macaroni salad. Spouts makes theirs fresh and it takes so authentic to the lesser quality grocery store brand.

Love it!

Are you kidding?!?! That menu sounds awesome to me!Cold Fried Chicken is one of my faves. but Im all stuck up and would have to make mine from scratch, which means 24 hours of marinade, cooking and then sitting overnight in the fridge. Too much work for a last minute picnic. We aint so different. I bet you woulda liked my menu, too.

THE FOOSA ARE ATTACKING!
