What will you bring to our picnic?
I haven’t had to deal with a lot of snow this winter, but the cold is bringing me down.
Let’s plan a picnic. We will all gather in a rolling, sunny park, lakeside. All flies and mosquitoes are banned for life. The ants are strictly bound to ground score only.
Each jelly can bring one standard picnic basket.
Please describe what you have chosen to bring and share with your fellow jellies.
If you have a special basket you love, describe that also.
Beverages are covered, in great quantity and variety, but you are welcome to bring anything you believe is special or rare.

A hive of bees, a bear of hungry, and a barrel of honey.
I’ll carry a suitcase. There will be anti-mosquito lotions for everone, and two electric rackets. We can play “killer badminton”. Just go to a mosquito-infected area and play badminton and enjoy the sound of the rackets hitting mosquitoes.
And a machine gun to ward off wild animals and thieves.
An appetite and probably desserts.”
I will bring olives. spinach dip, salami, french bread and my cashew cole slaw.
I’ll smoke a couple pork shoulders.
BBQ-ed Chicken drumsticks and thighs.
Both dry rubbed and sauced !
Baguettes, Campari tomatoes and good cheddar.
Salted peanuts, of course.
Homemade tzatziki and salsa. Hummus, too, if I’m feeling like it.
Tzatziki and salsa, either one, can go with whatever the other one can’t. (And I use them both on my own burritos.) Hummus is just fine if the weather is warm.
It’s not a picnic without bugs anymore then a coming of age adventure isn’t one without not actually enjoying the adventure. I’ll bring slowly cooked demon heart and eye of dragon.
Maybe some deviled eggs, too. It’s been a long time since I’ve made them, but they’re always good.
^ Oooh, I love deviled eggs and make some good ones, I might have to do that in the next few days, it’s been forever.
Razor thin sliced beef tenderloin on bruschetta with a dollop of horse radish and sliced green olive topping, Aged Brie Cheese partnered with sliced pear. Skewered butterfly shrimp and grilled asparagus and a huge platter of salty ‘Tator Tots.
Staff, for a negotiated fee of course
Nalley’s dill pickles (sliced and whole), and scallions (green onions).
In line with what @ucme has suggested, I could bring a caterer.
We need Champagne too! Gotta have Champagne, we’ll let @ucme Chauffeur drive us home.
I’ll also bring some home brewed beer, some clear stuff with a kick too if we have any takers on that.
