BOOK REVIEW

Festive Picnics: Recipes Crafts & Decorations for Outdoor Occasions
by Pamela Sheldon Johns and Jennifer Barry

Festive Picnics: Recipes Crafts & Decorations for Outdoor Occasions
Reviewed by Cindy Sanchez

Okay, so there is more to a picnic than the ants...

When one mentions the word "picnic" my mind immediately picture a blanket on a beautiful patch of green grass, sandwiches, lemonade...and ants. Festive Picnics has helped me to overcome such a narrow view of this wonderful summer passtime.

With some forethought and planning a picnic can be anything and enjoyed anywhere; tailgating, on an airplane, camping, at a concert or pool party. Let your imagination take you where it wants to go. And yes, there is even more to a picnic than a simple basket and sandwiches.

Lets start with the recipes; Whether planning a cold or hot meal, Festive Picnics brings flavor to the mundane. Why not enjoy Creamy Tarragon Chicken Salad, Enoki Cucumber Rolls, Corn Roasted Pepper and Arugal Salad or Red, White and Blue Tartlets.

Decorating for a picnic? Sure! Picnic Bento Boxes, Rice Paper Candle Holders, Hand-Stamped Pcinic Boxes, Beach Bottle Place Cards and Father's Day Party Ties are just some of the many craft ideas to try.



Highly recommended.
