The perfect picnic

If you are looking for an informal way to entertain friends how about a picnic with a difference?

Scatter assorted seashells and some dry seaweed on a tablecloth around all the food.  Lay the table using paper plates, pretty napkins and bamboo cutlery tied with raffia.  Add assorted candles to create a cosy atmosphere and hey presto, you have a low labour, high impact party that is perfect for the summertime…whatever the weather!
