Plan A Picnic!

Hello June! I love the warmer weather we're enjoying here in the Northwest, USA. It's finally nice enough to send the kids outside without checking for coats, hats, mittens and other warming accessories. And...it's perfect picnic weather!

There is something wonderfully alluring, fresh and zesty about eating outdoors, whether in your own backyard or away from home at a park, forest or by the lake. If you access to any of these type of areas, I highly encourage you to try some of our picnic perfect recipes and get outdoors!

(There is also nothing wrong with picnicing on a blanket in your living room if you live in an area where it's rainy or just beginning the cold season - this can be a great activity for entertaining little ones too!)
