My sweetheart and I had a picnic last weekend and it was lovely! Seeing these pictures makes me feel that we need to have another one… 🙂

This looks amazing…and serious. That picnic basket…whoa. I am gratefully inspired.

I love this! What a great way to kick off the beautiful weather that has finally arrived. Everything looks yummy. Honestly. 🙂

I *REALLY* need to stop looking at Honestlyyum first thing in the morning because every time I do so, I get such an attack of spring fever, or food fever, or cocktail fever…basically, your posts make me want to just call in sick to work (even though I’m already at my desk), go home, make your recipes for food/drink, do a DIY or just relax. Lovely photos. Amazing site. Thanks!
