* strawberries
* grapes
* VCTOTW's vanilla cupcakes
* freshly juiced fruit punch (carrots, apples, watermelon, strawberries, water)
* homemade banana bread
* apples
* pears
* cucumber coins
* carrot batons
* hummus
* thermos of hot water for mama, and a few tea bags of peppermint tea
* drinking water for the kids' tea party

Happy Earth Day, have fun makin' your green!

Thank you for the reminder about Earth Day... I knew it was on the horizon, and now it's circled on my calendar. I know we would love a picnic like yours, but gah! is it really still snowy?

Amy, you are MORE than welcome to join us!

Natalie, you are welcome for the reminder. The snow is finally gone, non snow pictures will be posted on Wednesday.

Happy Earth Day mamas!

Happy Earth Day!
Gee, sitting at the computer suddenly seems really inappropriate. I think I will tend my barrel garden and let our bunny run around the yard. I look forward to seeing your snow-free pictures.

Thank you for stopping by my blog the other day. I really should get us some washable picnic supplies to keep in the van, instead of disposable. Great idea!
