Cat Tales: Miscellany and Mischief

July 4 (30DBC)

July 4 30DBC Prompt: Tell us what your ideal picnic or barbecue would consist of. Setting, food, friends (if applicable), activities, etc.

Oooh, a fun one! Hmm, let's see. I might do this list style.

Setting
-Somewhere near a lake or river, and with lots of trees for shade.
-Preferably somewhere with a restroom (this pregnant lady's gotta go!).
-Preferably somewhere with picnic tables and trash cans, and maybe even a gazebo-type shelter.

Food
-Bratwurst!
-Burgers
-Hot Dogs
-Baked beans
-Chips
-Salad
-Macaroni and Cheese
-Cookies
-Brownies
-Ice Cream!

Friends
-I tend to like smaller gatherings, so probably my hubby, a few friends from church, his mom and grandparents, my mom and dad and aunt, and some long-distance friends I haven't seen for a while (or ever!).

Activities
-Swimming! It's great exercise and so relaxing.
-Cornhole. We do live in the South, and my hubby doesn't leave any gathering without playing a round or two.
-Musical Chairs. Funniest game ever, especially with adults. They basically turn into five-year-olds all over again.
-Sprinklers and water balloon fights. It's summer!!!
-Karaoke. Just hook up the machine and let people step up. Find some hidden talent, or some talent that should've stayed hidden.

I think that about sums it up. Now I need to plan this thing, cause it needs to happen in real life! Happy Fourth to everyone, and please celebrate safely!
