“There is no more quintessential shared experience than picnicking in nature,” said Aimee. “No clocks. No phones. No reservations. Just picnic partners, a piece of grass, and delicious food. The art of sharing is just Picnic Perfect. The recipe for a good picnic starts with local shopping and seasonal eating! This is a delightful vegetarian picnic dish I make. It gets better even as it sits or after a long walk to your picnic destination.”
