So, I am planning a girls day out on Saturday as a mini-bachelorette party for my SIL. There is going to be a Summer Solitce Wine Festival and there are going to be 4 different wineries there we can try and they welcome picnic lunches.

Anny idea of what to pack for it? Cheese suggestions? Anything?

I want it to be cute and budget is wide out there are she is only getting married once and I don't have to buy a bridesmaid's dress or anything!

I had some great appatizers a few weeks ago that would be fun to make and pack up to take with you. You start with a toothpick and stick a cherry/grape tomatoe on it (make sure they aren't recalled then get some fresh basil and fold a leaf of that and stick it on there and then end with a small cube of a mild cheese like havarti, smoked gouda, mild swiss. They tase great with the fresh basil and are light and fun. They look nice too because of the red, green, and white. Your weekend sounds awesome have a great time!!

This is what they have had at wine tasting places that I have seen too.Goes perfect with it.
