Happy Monday, all!
Summer weather sure hit with a vengeance this weekend, and with temperatures over 105 degrees, it was just too hot to spend any significant amount of time outside. Of course this meant that all I wanted to do was spend some time outdoors, and I was particularly taken with the idea of having a picnic. So, although it didn't happen this weekend, I'm determined to make it happen sometime this summer. I'm thinking something along these lines would be just about perfect...
I love this very French take on the classic picnic - from the blanket, to the fresh baguette, variety of cheeses & charcuterie, fruit and wine - this is truly my idea of the perfect outdoor meal. It would almost feel like you're dining in the middle of Provence, no?
Want to have an equally awesome picnic? Here are some of my favorite picks.
picnic basket / ikat blanket / candleholders / rattan trays / white drink bucket / gold flatware / blue tumbler / blue plate / gold charger
For the food, pick up some fresh baguette, cheese, fruit, and wine, and display it all in wooden wine crates. Scatter a few vases filled with fresh lavender, and you'd have a picnic straight from Provence! What's your idea of a perfect picnic?
