We had our first warm, spring-like day here in Philadelphia yesterday, and immediately my thoughts turned to picnics, grilling and all things having to do with dining alfresco. Lucky for all of us who are thinking about prepping for a season of outdoor eating, Mighty Goods has put together a Perfect Picnic Guide. The list (with helpful links directly to the seller) includes specialty food products, picnic blankets, cool cups and plates, items in which to carry your packed meal (I'm a sucker for the traditional basket. Much to my chagrin, my mother preferred a more practical cooler all throughout my childhood) and drinks to keep you refreshed.
Anyone got any picnic tips, tricks or secrets? Shout them out in the comments.

A favorite picnic is to go to either the food coop in Mt. Airy or to Whole Foods and get little bits of each of those prepared foods that we have been meaning to try. Add a loaf or two of really good bread and a dessert from the bakery sections and -- voila! A fantastic picnic with no prep whatsover! Don't forget the plastic forks! This is great for a plane or train ride, too....
