.My favourite description of a picnic is in The Wind in the Willows,when Mole asks what's inside the wicker luncheon - basket ."There's cold chicken inside it; replied Ratty briefly; "with coldtonguecoldhamcoldbeefpickledgherkinssaladfrenchrollscresssespottedmeatgingerbeerlemonadesodawater"
wowo Diana! Is this for real??What a wonderful set up, love how Snowy is waiting for his bit :-) I'll have a ginger beer, and some cold beef with pickles!! I'm spreading the befunky word, thanks for your fave on my efforts.
Oh this looks so tempting ...a real old fashioned picnic, how delicious !! You have all the right gear too, wicker baskets, straw hat & wine !! Snowy will be thinking this is a treat !!!
@Cherrill Oh yes its for real after taking this picnic up into the orchard it started raining that's why the umbrella is there. so we had to have an indoor picnic!
This looks lovely - shame it started raining! Sorry not been commenting much - I'm super-busy (not helped by Will's broken tooth falling off again last night at scouts - just off to the dentist AGAIN!). I'm thinking of moving in there to save on petrol!
This is so great-looks like a lovely picnic. There is something about it that just soothes the soul.
Thanks for the fav on my pelican shot-much appreciated.
(: One of the first books I can remember my stepfather reading me me when I was young. This looks right out of it, too. I really like your picnic "composition."
@seattle Your welcome to join us on a picnic Constance. btw this picture was taken in our orchard which is only about 50yds from the house, so not far to go to take cover from the rain
Made this a fav, because it captures the loveliness of a summer picnic. made even more special by Snowy's addition. I'm especially impressed that he is turned away from the food. Remarkable self-control!
Thanks for the fav on my pelican shot-much appreciated.
