What are you doing this Sunday? Is it the same old routine of getting up late and lazing around like a couch potato in front of the Idiot box? Move that butt and do something different. Of course, going for brunch is not good enough, how about trying the conventional with an unconventional trip to the outskirts for a good picnic. A picnic is a great fun out with your friends or family . So why not do just that. Sounds exciting, right?

The essentials for a great picnic would include the following:

1. A picnic basket filled with snacks like chips, mint & coriander chutney sandwiches, desserts, candy, fruits and some sodas. You can try a wide variety of foods from cured and cooked meats, terrines, pates, game, salads, roasted poultry, mince-meat pies, plums cakes and pastries to lobster and shellfish served with fresh vegetable salads followed by desserts such as tarts, cakes, English scones and seasonal summer fruits. This would be all accompanied with aperitifs, champagne and wine and finished with a classic cup of tea.
2. Camera / Binoculars
3. Water coolers
4. Paper plates
5. Medical kit
6. Cotton napkins
7. Thermos flask
8. Salt & Pepper Cruet
9. Picnic mats / Picnic blanket
10. A pack of cards or a any game of your favourite
11. Folding chairs
12. Umbrellas
13. Trash bags

With all these essentials in mind, don't forget to go with the people you love for that is the most important criteria for enjoying a great outing with them.
