Portable picnics for busy weekends
Jackson Hole Star-Tribune - Casper,WY,USA
So what's the difference between picnic, tailgate and barbecue menus?

Honestly, not a lot except the location. This week, we offer a variety of recipes that do not have to be grilled, which makes them perfectly portable for the parking lot in Laramie on Saturday morning or a quick trip to the mountain on Monday.

Be sure that your cooler is cold enough to hold food for several hours and have plenty of bags to pack up your trash before you leave...

We never go on picnics. Just enjoy sitting outside on the patio with furniture...no bugs!

We have the screen porch. We eat out there for as long as the weather permits and as soon as the better weather returns. It's the second dining room

That's one of the things we've still got to get - a table and chairs for the deck. Starting the middle of next month, the temps and the humidity will be down and with the sea breeze makes for great outdoor dinning. Have to watch the sale fliers because places like Lowe's and HD will be putting them on sale soon.

Yes those end of season sales are great. We really need some new stuff but it will probably have to wait till next year.

I was thinking of something to do on Saturday...and I think that a picnic sounds fun!!!! I haven't done that.....ever. Well, maybe not every, but it has definitely been a long time. Something different.
