We've learned a lot of tricks over the 37 years we've been married and had picnics! We have a picnic basket all ready to go at all times: glasses, napkins, plates, utensils, and a corkscrew! That got added when we turned 21! (yes, we were baby newlyweds!) At a moment's notice, we can throw together a picnic and get on the road towards a good time!
One of our favorite recipes is this Smoked Turkey Salad that we just recently started using on picnics. We attended the Cardinal's Opening Day baseball game and took this as our lunch.
