Indeed! what can be a better day to have a picnic if not on Sunday?
so when the sun is shining and the first spring thunders have passed by it's time to pack and head out of the city to enjoy the nature and "open the season" of picnic, barbeque and great outdoors.
So the idea of the week is to make a picnic somewhere new, somewhere green, somewhere nice and somewhere where are poppy field! I have always wanted to take some typical, running-in-a-poppy-field picture and this year -- I will!
so pack your bags! we are going for an adventure! feel free to come along! :)
and here is some Checklist what to take when going for a picnic (healthy one):
1) Food (prepare sandwiches already at home in those pretty triangles) take also food that doesn't make your hands super-dirty and sticky and/or easy to clean with 2) wet wipes; and all other food depends on you. I always make some sandwiches, vegetables, and fruits. (prosciutto and melon is an amazing combination).
try to leave out all the dairy products that can go bad if you won't them eat soon after taking out of fridge, like yogurts or ice cream, although vine could be included in this list if planning a romantic getaway.
Here are some good foods you should think of including in your picnic basket as well as your diet and everyday life!
(YES! there is a dark chocolate, but the good kind, organic, not commercial and NOT in huge quantities!) for some other healthy lifestyle and cooking suggestions check out the Health Castle homepage here.
3) cutlery and melamine (re-usable ones to preserve the environment) and cutting board or hard surface as well as containers for leftovers
4) army knife (always comes in handy)
5) water (or other low or no sugar drinks, so don't get thirsty fast)
6) blanket( preferably dark one)
7) sun protection( if there is strong sun) : sunglasses, cream, hat (a nice straw hat will always be a great addition)
8) anti mosquito spray (insect repellent) and cream (after they have bit you.. yes, that happens)
9) tissues and/or napkins
10) playing cards/games/ badminton/ Frisbee/ball/kite, etc. *
11) musical instrument (if you have one and know how to use one :) *
12) CAMERA! it's a must! to make some new memories
13) trash bags
* 10 and 11 are just recommendations
and the checklist for park-green space for picnic. for a beach or mountains the picnic list should be slightly different. but about that some other time. Enjoy your picnic!
P.S. and let me know if I missed out something and should add to the list!
