Green grass, blooming buds, and sunny skies all make us want to get outside and savor every minute. In the Archives, the budding season makes us look at old treasures with new eyes. This week, a 1928 cookbook compiled by Christ Church Parish Helpers made me wonder what tasty treats might make a perfect step-back-in-time picnic.
Here’s a selection of some of the most seasonally appropriate offerings for an outing. See if anything strikes your fancy and let us know how they turn out (we’d be happy to taste test samples!) And while we’re on the subject, what are some of your own long-standing family favorites? Share some with us on Facebook — and have a very Happy Picnic Season!
