Yay! It’s almost June, and we are moving quickly into picnic weather. If you’re like us, the pandemic has forced you to get creative about eating out – but don’t worry: those days of shivering in a parka at an outdoor patio in the dead of winter are in our rear view mirrors. Now we can get excited about a delicious, creative, relaxing and fun-filled meal on the grass, in a park, at the beach, or in your backyard.
