Here’s my recipe for a great picnic. You should bring:
1. Food. Obviously. It’s kind of what makes it a picnic. Food + outside. Bring food that is still tasty even if it’s not piping hot and that’s relatively easy to eat (limited need for utensils, not too messy, etc) is best. Takeout, homemade sandwiches, a tasty charcuterie board or just a random collection of snacks are all great options.
2. Bring drinks. Bring more than you think you’ll need and make sure you include water, especially if your other drinks are alcoholic. Scope the bathroom options in advance, especially with COVID. Some park facilities are closed.
3. Bring things to sit on. The simplest option is a blanket, perhaps a designated picnic blanket that’s a little moisture resistant. If you’re like me and want max comfort though, I highly suggest getting a folding chair you find comfortable and a folding table. I bought a chair from Alpha Camp which makes camping gear for fat folks. I adore it.
4. Bring other comfort and pleasure items. For me this usually means a speaker to play music, a sweatshirt or jacket, sunglasses, and bug spray. Hand sanitizer and paper towels or moist towelettes are great too. Make a pleasure space for yourself in public. Set yourself up for maximum enjoyment.
5. Bring a wagon. Seriously. Sometimes you wanna trek to a part of the park that’s far from the parking lot and a wagon makes it easier to haul your stuff in one go. I found a folding “garden wagon” last summer that fits in my Honda CRV behind the driver’s seat on the floor. I originally got it to carry food and water for protesters, but now I use that thing for everything, especially picnics.
That’s it. You probably already knew how to have a picnic, but you read this far so clearly something was holding your interest. Go eat outside and appreciate the splendor that is Madison in the spring, you badass bitch.
