Like Sam, I’d start with a good (hopefully still warm) baguette. Then I’d add good brie cheese, a bottle of rosé, fresh strawberries, and the lovely Miss Lisa’s green lentil salad with roasted red peppers and feta. I actually really want this right now. Yum!

hmm. Good cheese, fresh baguette, some kind of cold salad, Sauv Blanc, a decadent dessert- fat pants brownies for the win.

I’d pack feta watermelon salad, fat pants brownies, chilled Sauvignon Blanc, curry chicken salad and fresh tomatoes from my garden.

It would be simple, it would be plentiful, it would be nourishing.

It would be simple because simplicity is often the best way to go.

It would be plentiful because having my friends around me would far outweigh whatever we're eating.

It would give us energy to enjoy the day nourishing our friendships and the loves of our lives.

We are on a theme with this one! Here's mine - Lentil salad (or a kale caesar if that's more of my mood), strawberries, a good French rosé a fresh, warm baguette, and a good camembert. Delicious!
