Nice weather is near which means it time to pack a sheet, pick a spot in the park, and have a picnic.

I would love to know some good picnic foods because I am sick of packing the same things. Something that won't go bad because I usually make chicken or shrimp with a salad and some fruits with something to drink.

Btw, thanks everyone for answering my "what to make for baby food" question because most of the time I make my own baby food. He doesn't even like the store brand stuff. Again Thanks!

Meat, cheese, crackers, pineapple, grapes, strawberries coupled with a red and white wine for adults. Alternative to crackers is pita's. If a meal is planned, pasta salad is a great addition. For kids, stick with the fruit and some yogurt dip. Sandwiches are always a standard, but try wraps instead.
