Memorial Day is the kick off to summer and what better way to kick off the season than a picnic with friends in the mountains or at the beach!
A summer staple is the perfect picnic BASKET
Or a picnic cooler with lots of room for wine. Like this ONE - my kind of picnic!
If you and your peeps don't love the idea of sitting on the ground, how about this deluxe picnic portable TABLE?
Why not pack one of these cheese BOARDS?
Rather than a bottle of chardonnay (yawn) pack a bottle of rose and champagne like these favorites from COPPOLA VINYARDS
Wondering what to serve?
A CEASAR SALAD - pack the dressing on the side
ROASTED ASPARAGUS prepared in advance and served at room temp
And keeping with the summer theme - STRAWBERRY CUPCAKES and pop the champagne. Cheers to summer!
