Tackling my Summer food bucket list has been pretty exciting. With the addition of our Strawberry farm adventure I am having a little too much fun tackling all the things I put on the list. The next one on my mind was having a lake picnic…. on the water! Moving to Madison has been a dream come true with all the lakes we have surrounding the city. Building snowmen during the winter and walking on them while frozen was a blast so I knew I wanted to have a picnic on it, we just had to wait for the perfect weather. Enter, Summer! To celebrate the occasion I brought chicken salad sandwiches, sweet strawberries for dessert & of course I couldn’t forget some sparkling Limonata (my absolute fave!). The adorable straws & napkins are from Party Pail Aren’t they adorable? They’re super affordable too! For this girl who loves to host and entertain, I just couldn’t contain myself when I came across them. Our vintage picnic basket made an appearance too. We got it in Palm Springs years ago and it’s one of my most treasured souvenirs EVER. I cannot wait to have a few more picnics while it’s still nice out. Eating and sipping Pellegrino right above the water was just awesome! Obviously having great company always helps. Just for fun I brought along some of our vintage cameras. I know, I am a big dork but I’ve been wanting to photograph them in random places. Love how those pics turned out. Anyways, two more items on our Summer list and we will be done! Grilled corn – I’m talking to you! HA! Do you like having picnics too? What do you like on your picnic menus? Happy Summer loves!
