Great Easter Day Picnic

My boyfriend, Bryan, and I found ourselves here in DC for the Easter holiday. With the beautiful weather this past weekend, we had to do something outside. Picnic! Always a great idea to get out and enjoy the weather, good food and wine and on the super cheap!

I made some homemade oven-fried chicken, pasta salad, flourless chocolate cake and brought along a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon. Our original plan was to go to Roosevelt Island with the pup and a picnic basket. However, once we got there, it was packed! Go figure, it was the first awesome weekend since our blizzard of a winter. We then headed into DC to go to Rock Creek Park. It was perfect. We found a secluded spot and set up camp. We spent an hour or two relaxing, eating, drinking and playing with Marley.

It was a great Sunday afternoon and also a good change of pace from going out. I think it's a great idea for families and couples alike. Get out and enjoy this weather and sunshine!

Cheers :)
