Everybody is wondering how to spend the great time with the second part of you heart, everybody are imagining some crazy things like to go hiking to the mountains with plenty of cargo on your shoulders, or visit some cousins on the other side of a world, driving the car and stop in some doubtful motels on a road…Why? Why you have to imagine all this unbeliever trips, if the simplest way to spend the day with your deeply loving person is to go on a simple picnic to the nearest park next to your house. So, in my opinion, that is a best idea, and I would like to give you couple of advises on it.

First and the main advice – do not abuse with the food, take not the whole fridge, just enough to prepare some sandwiches, and don’t forget to take some desserts on the end of your lovely ramble…

"Manly picnic" may be an oxymoron, and normally I would leave the subject of "picnic" alone, and given its associations with unsatisfying humans being and general boredom, picnics are on the minds of many, not least of all the people who have problem to think what to take, how many of this and that…And you may find yourself in the middle of one point in the coming future. In which case, here's what you might want to know!!!

The food: I can suggest you one quite famous “chef of picnic” - Mark Bittman, simple-tasty recipe author, has a list of 101, 20-minute picnic dishes that looks pretty appetizing. I like where he's going with quick steak sandwich: "Grill a steak, slice it thin. Butter a baguette on one side; put Dijon on the other side. Pile the bread with steak, roasted peppers (in the cans, piquillos are the best) and something crunchy, like radicchio. A little blue cheese wouldn't hurt either) Neither would avocado (but not both)."

The drink: I am sure, wine will work with the steak, and some canned beer in a cooler, but come on, gin and tonics are refreshing, summery, and easy enough to make in any location, don’t forget to bring lime wedges if you're feeling fancy.

The game: It should really be played on proper court volleyball, bring the ball with you, football; you can even play football if you can find something like a table, some parapet! And of course cards! Without them you cannot manage. Also, of course, don’t forget to play the favorite game of two loving each other people! “Rolling the brick”, this is a block with six sides on it, and on each side is written – Kiss me in a lips, Kiss me in the neck, Kiss me in the breast, Hug me and so on…

So you roll the brick and depending wich side appears to be your, you follow the order that is written on a block…so for two loving people it is the best game to play! In my opinion…

That is everything from me. See you later

Yours Alisa
