Some nights it’s nice to just not cook at all. Thanks to Farmstead, Seven Stars Bakery, Red Fire Farm and Kimball Fruit Farm for some truly delicious goodies.

I love indoor picnics. They’re even better on the floor.
I LOVE bresaola…
I also like inside pic nics!! The food looks so tasty: yum!
I looked at the top photo and thought: “I wonder if that’s bresaola?!” Always learn to scroll down for answers! Looks wonderful. I’m craving it now.
Cheers,
*Heather*
That looks like a wonderful meal. So relaxed with the indoor picnic idea and yet so flavorful.
It’s raining this weekend in the NYC area, so we are having our usual Friday nt antipasto night…..an indoor picnic!
You had me on that first picture with the tomatoes and tapenade. Of course everything looks awesome but I have a soft spot for fresh tomatoes especially as the season’s about to end…
This is DEFINITELY my favorite kind of dinner, eaten right at the coffee table with a good movie.
Also, my BF learned to make bruscetta when he lived in Rome, and it makes THE perfect dinner. Now I can’t have bruscetta any other way.
Wow, that looks amazing. Cheese, olive oil, bread, tomatoes and salt are perfect companions for a steamy August night.
What a great idea! I love doing this Greek-style too, with hummus, feta or haloumi, olives, etc.
YUM! It all looks sooooooo delicious!
Thanks, everyone!
I love in-door picnics. The variety, the colours, the flavours…and all in the warmth and comfort of your home…or anothers. I really like using up left overs, transforming them, adding some bread and dinner’s ready. Thanks for reminding me I need to make this party of my weekly dinner planning.
