The Picnic Basket

by Kelly





Ah, picnic baskets. Packed with potential, but you never know what might be inside. There are so many dietary plans and restrictions these days - vegan, organic, gluten free, peanut free, low-carb, and the list goes on and on. If you have an appetite for a traditional picnic, and open the lid of the basket to reveal a bottle of distilled water and a bag of low-calorie rice cakes, imagine your disappointment.

Well, would you like to see what's inside? Could it be southern fried chicken? Hot dogs? Is there orange creme soda? Potato salad? Apples and French cheese? Blueberry yoghurt and a burn notice? Fava beans and a nice Chianti????





Hmmm.....embroidery supplies. Some people might be disappointed. Me, not so much.

  1. It looks like your picnic basket is a sewing basket. I can relate to that. I can find a use for most baskets. I have one for papers that need to be filed, one for sewing supplies, four for crochet projects. Baskets are handy items. But then you have to find a place for all of them.
