This is a tiny bit of French-picnic inspiration that I posted over at Second Shout Out! My niece recently pointed out this gorgeous and very inspirational image from a French magazine, Campagne Décoration
-- it is the quintessential French 'pique-nique' don't you think? It
makes me want to dream up a delicious fresh summer menu--and pack it
into a basket -- to tote off to a table under a tree -- or the beach!
Mid-August, gardens right now in France are exploding and the markets are brimming....
And even my vintage purchases for Sunday Brocantes of late seem to all be influenced by food--as you saw in my post from this past weekend!
I love the idea of packing up fresh fruit, seasonal 'composed' salads, olives and dips....
... into antique French confiture jars!
The thick-sided jars, chilled in the fridge, so everything stays fresh and cool!
As the summer winds-down, I hope you can still sneak in some time for one last French-picnic ... or two! I know I will!
Bon Appétit!
