paltry picnic

I'm trying to pull together some sort of lunch to take somewhere. Patrick wants to be outside. It is a lovely day to do so, but I do not have the supplies on hand for a picnic. Yet another reason I love living in the Midtown building---instant picnic! Or sushi like last night when we took the elevator downstairs to see the most talented sushi chef in the Twin Cities, Tony. So very convenient.

Another menu subject is what to plan for the weekend of the 4th. We'll be going to Schaffran's Resort on the beautiful shores of Lake Latoka (a.k.a. Uncle and Aunt's cabin). The summer grill options are endless with possibilities especially when there is a group involved. Lisa and Karla, should we try grilling peaches? That would go nicely with the homemade ice cream!


Quote from Lucy Maud Montgomery;


I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens, but just those days that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string.


Have a wonderfully ordinary day.
