Oh
So Easy Picnicking
Picnics in the summer trump any activity, no matter where
your picnic is. But, the clean up can be a bear when returning home.
As a
coinsure of summer picnics and picnicking, I devised at simple way of handling
the hated, "after picnic clean up".
My
strategy:
-Throughout the year, save plastic containers, i.e. store
bought pies, purchased salads at say chicken take outs, preferable anything
with a removable label.
-Before washing the container, peel off the labels while
watching TV at night.
-After washing and drying them, store in an out of the
way cabinet you hate getting into, i.e. the cabinet above the refrigerator
-Be vigilant with saving all containers
-Before the first summer concert, pull down all saved
containers and separate them by size and shape.
-As concerts are planned, put your food in the containers
and take off for the concert.
-After the concert, throw the containers, plastic forks,
spoons, knives and cups away.
You'll
come home with an empty sack of nothing and be glad you saved those pesky
containers.
