 So hubby and I were talking how long has it been since we went on an old fashioned picnic.  Just the two of us and no camper, no restaurants, just a packed picnic lunch.  We have a very small BBQ so hubby said he would get it ready and we can cook our brats on it.  I will take all the fixings in small containers.  We love deviled eggs and what a great way to take them on a pic nic.  Going to make small no bake cheesecake for our desserts.  Putting them into these small jars is such a great idea.  Making these personal salads except we will be adding the forks at the lake. Doesn't this sound so good watermelon lemonade.  Never tried it but can't wait.  All this pictures are on pinterest with there recipes.  Check them out and show the original posters some love by liking their pages.  I am making all of these so getting a shopping list ready.  We will be going to picnic at one of the lakes in our area. So grab your family, make a list and go on an old fashion

 Two of our transistor radios that we have had for lots of years.  I remember as a young girl we could buy these for $3 each.  They were so fun and we thought we were so cool.  We could only get about 2 stations but we didn't care.  The one I remember the most is this red one with the cover on it.  I always loved the smell of the cover when it was new.  When I dug these out the other day they brought back a lot of memories. We are selling these now in our ETSY shop as we are clearing out boxes, cupboards and shelves as we are retired now and some things just need to go

  Won't be long and hubby will be going to work in the hay fields again....which he can't wait for....so we are just finishing a few more projects....gotta keep the man working....anyway I finally found what I wanted to do with a very very old lantern...it has been hanging on the patio for about 10 years....oldest son Jason disconnected it last time he was home because he said it was dangerous....someone had made it electric years and years ago...so old cracked wiring.....I just thought it was a good place for it until I decided what I wanted to do with it...several electricians tried to talk me out of it....but no not me ...when I like something I like it....so today hubby took it down and I will clean it up and rewire it with a smaller bulb and it will have a new home in Maizy Bell
