Pick a Park – It’s Time to Picnic!

Summertime means picnic time! Make your family outing or romantic day at the park a whimsical treat by packing up the perfect picnic.

• Items to remember: blanket, utensils, napkins/paper towels and trash bags.

• Bring fruits with a peel like oranges and apples or make kabobs from apples, pears, grapes and strawberries.

• Stay hydrated with fruit-infused water. Lemon, strawberry and mint are tasty.

• Keep the food easy like crunchy vegetables, sliced meats, cheeses and crackers.

• Pre-pack sandwich fixings and create your own masterpiece on the spot.

Now, lay back, relax and enjoy picking out shapes in the clouds.
