I love picnics. I think perhaps you all know that. I even manage to find an excuse to picnic in winter. Yes I am slightly deranged. It comes mainly through child-rearing. ANYWAY. For me nothing says ‘Summer’ more than picnics and lounging on a blanket knowing enough snacks are at hand for a long afternoon of none-stop play.


A bit of blue sky, a gentle breeze perhaps. Pretty flowers are always nice and birdsong? That would be good. Iced tea and Elderflower cordial? - uh, pretty mandatory, I’d say…

But best of all? The sound of my children laughing and playing, carefree, imbibing the sounds and sights of summer; imbibing the stuff of good memories.

Hoping for some good picnic weather this weekend *fingers crossed*! However you enjoy yourself I hope your little ones are the happiest of all.
Enjoy your weekend!







I absolutely love picnics…they might be the one thing that makes summer so magnificent! We’ve had rain and sun and rain and sun the past few days…changeable weather makes me a bit nervous about venturing out for a picnic. I hope you had wonderful weather for picnicking this weekend!
