Review: This is not only an amazing resource on how to prepare for an extraordinary picnic - Oh my! This is not only an amazing resource on how to prepare for an extraordinary picnic, it is a fantastic recipe book. From savory to sweet there is a plethora of foods to make and enjoy whether off on a picnic or hunkering down at home! I just received mine in the mail and as I am skimming through my mouth is watering! I seriously cannot wait to make everything (especially the Chocolate Mint "Movie Stars")!!! My 6 year old daughter is eyeing the Rosemary Lemon Bars and the Salted Caramel Popcorn. My 8 year old is grabbing the berries and heavy cream from the fridge, as I write this review, to make the Pots de Crème with Rose Whipped Cream...she is a very big fan of berries and cream on any and all occasions! The themes of the picnics are beyond cute, from romantic to kid friendly...and the ideas for seasonal activities that go along with the themes are perfect additions! Super glad I ordered this book! Don't hesitate...buy it!
Review: You DEFINITELY want this beautiful picnic cookbook! - You want this book for your collection!! It's full of brilliant ideas and themes for picnics in all seasons, like games to play, centering your outing around bird-watching, dining by the water and making afternoon tea or a coffee break the focus. Ashley English includes instructions for building a simple, portable picnic table and cornhole boards, and we haven't even gotten to the RECIPES! There's Cardamom, Rose Water and Berry Coffee Cake; Chimichurri Chicken; Gingersnap and Coconut Lime Tassies; Smoky Cauliflower Spread; Cheesy Kale Chips; Rosemary Lemon Bars...I can't wait to go on these picnics. Ashley's recipes are always unique, approachable and delicious, and the photography by Jen Altman is stunning.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some good stuff
*by D***L on March 1, 2018*

I love the idea of this book. It was not all that I hoped it would be (mostly Black and white pics) and some of the recipes were a bit much for me...but there are still some great things in the pages
