If you ever catch a summer day when it is too beautiful to sit inside, think about having a picnic.
A nearby beach or park may be the perfect place to sit down on a blanket and enjoy some good food. Include some finger food like celery or carrots and maybe something new for the kids like humus, tzatziki, sour cream and chive, taramasalata and other dips. Don’t make it too complicated but including some sweet summer fruit or veggie wraps that the kids have never tried may make the picnic unique.
Check out our Beaches off the Beaten Path article for possible beaches you could have a picnic at.
