I like apple pie with ice cream but don't care for watermelon. I'm more of a cantaloupe guy. :)

dear Fabian… delighted to receive your review… Cantaloupe is delicious with a bit of black pepper. I like my Watermelon with a bit of salt. We are the Salt of the Earth…. Occasionally… all in fun in the Sun 🤩 gently, Pat

The simple days were the best days dear Pat. I miss the days of family get-togethers. Very nice use of words my dear friend.

dear John… grandchildren love Picnics by the Sea… the good thing is .. there might not be Mosquitos by the Sea… hope you can enjoy the Sea breeze while eating pickles and deviled eggs…. with Waves 🌊 splashing toward the Shore. tenderly, Pat

I agree dear Pat. I love the lake or sea days.

Dear Pat, your summer picnic sounds positively sumptuous. How delicious and to enjoy the treats with old friends. Watermelon so refreshing and apple pie. Who can resist a slice of home made apple pie? I think we would all like to join you for your picnic.

This is my second visit. I thought I had responded to this post a couple of days ago and can remember my thoughts, but my review must have got lost in the ether. Good to have a second read and this time I will make sure my response registers.

Sending love across the pond.

Chris

dearest Chris... you are the kindest Angel... and your wings fly around our poems and leave the most lovely words that rest on branches where poets leave notes of lullabies. It seems that mosquitoes are restless this year, so we must cover ourselves and Picnic in the shade of Apple trees ... and enjoy the breeze as family and friends bring covered dishes to share.
Your presence is a pleasure and pure sunshine.
tenderly, Pat

reminds me of our picnics up in Ryegate.
what a spread...and we little kids were in heaven...

couldn't get enough dessert, still can't, just can't eat it quite as fast or as much of it.

dearest Jacob... memories of Picnics with friends and family are what make us vulnerable to being together with love and caring... sharing once again the family favorites of potato salad and deviled eggs, cucumbers and tomatoes fresh from the Garden. We may be a bit slower to finish our meal... but also eager to discover the Berries for Desert. Thanks for being present in a Year of being sequestered. Be safe and well. truly, Pat

Lovely imagery Pat and I can smell the sweetness in it; like old times picnics, in the hot summer breeze, a gathering of old folks enjoying the moment.
Best, B

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Betty… so lovely to read your review.
Of course, there are always children around for laughter as they enjoy the food and Sweet Treats. The friends and relatives love ❤️ a Summer Picnic. gently, Pat

[Betty Hermelee]

You’re so welcome Pat

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Can I be invited. it sounds simply amazing.

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Dale… it would be an Honor to have you appear… we might even Fly a Kite if it is Windy… perhaps even Grill a few veggies and Kosher Hot Dogs… or just eat Watermelon … truly, Pat

[Sami Khalil]

Very needed and enticing. Many people will sign up in a heartbeat.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Sami… your Review is like the Song Moonglow in the 1955 Movie Picnic with William Holden and Kim Novak… full of family and friends where Love is the Theme… Hope your Summer is Enchanting… truly, Pat

[Sami Khalil]

Wow! Good to know. You are so welcome.

[andrew mitchell]

Don't forget the wine Pat! :-)

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Andrew... I can imagine that way back in B.C. there would be Goblets of Wine when there were Picnics along the Nile. Crushed Grapes were sweet and lovely Birds would tweet. I will save you a special Seat. Summer is a Season of Buttercups. gently, Pat

[andrew mitchell]

Buttercups are a weed here so invasive in the garden. Unfortunately I don’t remember my childhood days in Roman times. ;)))))))

[Patricia Wedel]

Touché dear Andrew !!
