A good resource of recipes for picnicking. Make take-along spreads for many outings. 125 recipes, like artichoke salad, gingerbread, chilled asparagus, bundt cake and lots more. Great for a romantic day out or spending time with a group of friends. Also included are suggestions of what else to take along, like chairs, umbrella, blanket, books and sunscreen. This book is very handy and would make a great gift as well.

It’s a cookbook. Nothing terribly innovative and exciting as far as recipes go. I might try one or two.

A+ for nostalgic book design, D- for appetizing recipes, so let's meet in the middle with a solid C!

More recipes that I'd like to try than usual for cookbooks. There are still a few I won't touch like poultry, salmon, and tuna.
