Picnic time at last!

I really wanted to go on a picnic with Jamie this summer. After a few tries, we finally got a great one!

Jamie’s first attempt at giving me a picnic was in California…we bought a pizza in Little Italy and the plan was to eat on the beach and watch the sunset. Well it got dark pretty quickly and then we got all turned around and ended up eating cold pizza in the car…still delicious but not quite what we had planned. Fail #1.

The second attempt was back in OKC. We got a late start but went tograb some food anyway. By the time we got our food we had missed the sunset and ended up eating sushi off the trunk of the Civic pulled over by the lake somewhere. It was a dark and windy evening, I was of course paranoid that we were going to die, and we were eating incredibly spicy food and forgot drinks. Fail #2.

Finally, our third attempt, we got actual picnic food, a bottle of wine and I even found a picnic basket in the garage! We got to watch the sunset together and enjoy conversations…not about being lost or attacked by the lake or the fact that I couldn’t feel my tongue. Glad we kept trying…it was finally perfect!
