Picnicing and Protecting the Planet at the Same Time

With better weather, we begin to drift outside. And what better way to celebrate the sunshine - than with fantastic food.

So pack up a basket and head - like Yogi - for a picnic in the park. But before you decide to use paper plates and napkins with plastic "silverware", why not make this a memorable meal?

Pack up your best plates, glassware and silverware and dine with more than a little taste. What's the worst that could happen and it's more likely you'll make a memory that will live on forever.

Pick a theme, romantic afternoon, playful picnic, or finger food...? It doesn't matter you'll have a great time no matter what the theme.

And if you use real plates, cloth napkins and even stainless steel "silverware", you'll be protecting the planet at the same time - no waste and even the leftover food might be shared with the "wildlife".

So go outside and play - in the park. Then come back here and let me know if you had a funtastic time.
