untanglingknots.com: Nina's Picnic

by Karla ° Wednesday, May 25, 2005

The other day, my wonderful friend Nina stopped by for a picnic lunch. She arrived at my house with the cutest picnic basket, a stunning bouquet of tulips and the biggest most heartwarming smile one could offer.

After a welcoming hug, she proceeded to set up our gourmet picnic outside. Nina’s attention to detail is second to none. She brought a fresh baguette, fresh fruit, including a perfectly sliced orange and kiwi platter topped with delicious red and green grapes, raspberries, cherries and strawberries, mini pumpernickel buns with fresh spinach dip, baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, veggie dip, and two different flavored wraps. A very tasty roasted red pepper and black olive wrap and a delicious hummus and shaved carrot wrap.

To drink, she brought white cranberry and peach juice mixed with bubbly club soda and a few raspberries for added flavor and eye appeal.

The picnic set up was completed with a mini portable radio for background music to compliment our afternoon lunch and great conversation.

Thank you for your amazing lunch and company Nina. Thank you for your encouraging words, open heart and listening ears. You are a spectacular person and I’m truly honoured to have you as a friend.

Okay, at first, I was like, "I want to suprise Karla with a picnic! I'll have to find a way!" However, after reading what an exquisite picnic she packed, I'll pass! Pretty much any meal I ever make for anyone has to include peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and Diet Dr. Pepper, so my fancy level is far below that of Nina. She sounds like an awesome friend! Bring her with you when you move down here, okay?
