Who doesn’t love a nice picnic? Being outdoors, enjoying a warm summer breeze and spending time with someone special. Sounds good to me! As a matter of fact, picnics make a great, inexpensive but thoughtful date activity. As long as you have a few tasty items on hand, you can Plan the Perfect Picnic Date in only a few minutes, even last minute!
Often times summer reminds me of rides in a pick up truck on country dirt roads, going for walks and hikes through local parks and simple picnics with my high school sweetheart, my husband. 🙂
Summertime around our house these days is loud, sometimes crazy but full of family fun with our 4 children.
Sometimes though, we plan a little picnic for just the two of us, just like we use to 20 years ago.
Whether we head up to the special park we use go to or pack a basket and set up a blanket at the back of our property for 30 minutes or so… we can always seem to squeeze in a picnic date.
I have a sweet memory of my husband trying to pick me some pretty wildflower (probably pretty weeds) on the side of a country road as we were walking one evening when we were dating in high school. He couldn’t break off the just the stem, so he pulled the whole plant out, roots and all and pulled them out from behind his back with his arm stretched out to me with a smile on his face. It was really cute.
Wild flowers or pretty weeds are easy to pick on your way to finding the perfect spot under a shade tree to lay out your blanket to make your picnic date a little more special. For me, those types of flowers always take me back to that memory…
What makes your picnic special is you. You have your own unique memories and moments that connect you with the one you love. It doesn’t have to be fancy to be special. It has to be thoughtful. That’s what makes for a wonderful lifetime of memories! Make your Picnic date your own.
Now lets not forget the food! When I was at Wegman’s grocery shopping last week, I picked up a few Ready Pac elevAte Salads! Varieties include Organic Sunny Caesar, Organic Nutty Cranberry, Organic Southwest Salad, and Organic Spinach Pow. Yum!
These can easily be found in the middle of the produce section in a small case display.
elevAte USDA Organic Salad Kits are fresh, delicious and perfect on-the-go or for your next picnic lunch, all while helping you stick to a healthy lifestyle.
Their salads are Anti-oxidant rich, high in omegas, and include plant-based proteins. They really do taste so good too!
I believe you need to eat good to feel good! Salads allow you to get a good amount of healthy ingredients all in one meal. Ready Pac elevAte salads are so convenient. They even come with a fork inside so you’ve got everything you need. I even pack these in my husband’s lunch for work.
Keeping elevAte salads in your refrigerator so they are ready-to-go is an easy way that you can enjoy a tasty and healthy meal that fuels you up and helps you feel great even on the busiest of days. Grab a few on your next trip to Wegman’s this summer & Plan the Perfect Picnic Date too!
