15 Picnic Basket Essentials

I adore picnics. There is just something about eating out there in that fresh air! I want the adorable blanket on the ground, the beautiful wicker basket, the trendy mason jar drinks with striped paper straws in them – the whole clichéd thing. It just makes me smile, so I want it all. Picnics on the beach, at the park, or even just in my own backyard, I love them all. These picnic basket essentials from some of my favorite bloggers will get you all ready for your next fun foray into outdoor eating too.

This Tortellini Pasta Salad recipe makes an appearance at many family functions because we all ask for it – that’s how good it is!

A refreshing drink is always a welcome addition. Try this Sweet Cucumber Green Tea or Watermelon Lime Iced Tea.

Food on a stick is always a hit. You could make this Easy Caprese Salad or Cobb Salad or S’mores on a Stick.

Spice things up a bit with this delightful Spicy Coleslaw.

We adore this Bacon Cheddar Macaroni Salad and go through bowls full of it nearly every week during the summer!

And even the veggie-haters in our house go back for seconds of this Broccoli Cauliflower Salad.

Finally, make a Reusable Sandwich Wrap for each person in the family. They’re pretty and eco-friendly!

We used to go camping a lot when my daughter was young. It was cheap and it was fun. For the price of one week of a non-camping vacation, we could camp for 3 weeks or more! We all loved the fresh air and the time spent outside too. I have to say though, there […]

Between work, school, chores and extracurriculars, many families find it difficult to squeeze in the time to really connect. Many parents feel as though they are constantly on the go, over scheduled and overwhelmed with the responsibilities of raising a family. In fact, even with the use of technology and screen time, there are several […]

It is not always easy to find time to pray. It should be. Or at least, I think it should be. But, in my world, it’s not. And that makes me sad. I can’t remember how many times this thought has passed through my mind. Yet, I haven’t really done anything productive to address this […]
