An Anniversary Picnic

July 16, 2009

Yesterday was our third wedding anniversary and to celebrate we had a picnic in the park.  Cherries, lots of cheese and french bread, melon and prosciutto and of course some red wine. As a special treat for the husband, I made one of my favorite appetizers: gorgonzola, honey and salami on french bread.  Then, for dessert we had cream puffs. The rectangular glass containers and the round french glass containers are both from the Container Store, and some of my favorite items in our kitchen.  I particularly like the rectangular containers because the lid functions as a mini cheese plate.  A cutie picture of me and Alex below!
