the perfect garden picnic

I didn't have the $347 Laura Ashley picnic basket set, but I had awesome weather, lovely garden setting, and a birthday boy to grace the occasion.

Picnic Menu

• Fresh rocket salad with goat cheese, baby tomatoes, salted cashew, and smoked salmon
• Bread sticks and honey crisps with pink creamy caviar dip
• German bratwurst, spicy Italian and English Cumberland sausages
• Italian strawberry mini custard tart
• Fresh watermelon cubes and chilled fruit juice

Fortunately both of us survived the food which I prepared, and made it to the Lion King musical in the evening. So no birthday boy was hurt in the production of this picnic.
