If there are going to be pancakes, we’ll need bacon. And maple syrup. In mass quantities. ---

Lemon bars, which I make to perfection. And my dogs, neither of which is grumpy. ---

Marble rye bread, cold cuts (kosher of course), cole slaw, dill pickle spears, 1kI dressing. Rachel sandwiches for all! (Rachel is like a Reuben, with cole slaw instead of sauerkraut. No cheese used for the kosher versions.) Is someone bringing a big cooler of water and a big cooler of kewl-ade? ---

> [@silenus](#): > > Deviled eggs stuffed with baby shrimp and horseradish How do these work? Do you devil the yolks and then add the shrimp and horseradish or do you eschew the yolks all together and just put the shrimp/horseradish in the whites? I must know! ---

I’m going to bring my iPod because I made a special picnic playlist just for our picnic. It’s a “fun in the summer” theme; all the songs are about fun things you do in the summertime. I will also make my world-famous veggie veg wraps that even carnivores enjoy: Smear 1 tortilla wrap with honey walnut cream cheese, toss shredded leaf lettuce and a bit of cilantro, diced green onions, diced apples, dried cranberries, a small handful of toasted walnuts or pecans, and another small handful of extra sharp cheddar. I may also bring some form of dessert, like homemade mocha brownies or maybe some cookies. And some form of chip because I like a salty crunchy thing to go with my veggie veg wraps. I could bring a frisbee or maybe a bocci or croquet set, that might be fun. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/im-taking-you-on-a-picnic/591065.md?page=2)
