I've been wanting a table for our porch for a while. A table makes for a nice place to sit and eat and also gives a charming cottage look. We found a sturdy card table at a yard sale this spring. The only problem was that the top is damaged and needs to be covered to look nice.:-) We went ahead and brought it home since I would use a tablecloth anyways! For $5, it will serve us well until we find something nicer.
All that to say, we ate at our front porch table for this picnic!
Because we weren't going anywhere, I didn't bother packing our meal in a basket. Instead, I just filled our plates and took them outside.
A candle and wild rose decorated our table.
The menu:
--Ham and Swiss quiche
--Salad
--Sliced strawberries
--Chocolate Chip-Raspberry cookies
Simple and sweet!
We definitely will be eating outside more this summer!

Mary Ann,
What a lovely idea. We can all have a picnic really whenever we choose to. :)
I think your menu looks lovely. Would you be willing to share the recipes for the quiche and the cookies?
Hi Lyn,
You're right.:-)
I'll be glad to share the recipe for the quiche. I'm planning on doing that sometime soon anyways.
The cookies are a basic chocolate chip cookie with chocolate-raspberry swirled chocolate chips in them. That's all. I had some given to me and I just used them instead of regular chocolate chips! If you're interested in my basic chocolate chip cookie recipe, let me know!
Nice to hear from you again, friend!
Mary Ann
