Summer is the perfect time to pack a picnic basket and head to the park or beach for some great family time! Libby’s Fruits and Vegetables were kind enough to send us this adorable Insulated Picnic Basket and Picnic Blanket Tote, as well as fruits and vegetables to make a yummy recipe to pack up!

I would love to win because in SCV we have the best concerts in the park during the summer where we bring a picnic dinner. If you don’t know our area, it is extremely hot and could use a place to put food and keep it cool.
we do a lot of picnics on weekends so this would be great for my family to use.
