Bonjour,
Join us for a Bastille Day Picnic next Friday, July 14 at 7 pm in Olmstead Park (just south of Jamaica Pond). Those of you who aren't Francophiles might want to know, What is Bastille Day? Simple-- the French equivalent of Cinco de Mayo. So trade in your Coronas and nachos and bring some fine wine, brie and baguettes. Don't forget your picnic blanket, wear red, white and blue (Vive la France!) and perhaps we'll bring the frisbee. Although in true French spirit there would be no semblance of exercise. Instead we'd all smoke cigarettes. C'est la vie!
Let us know if you can make it* and if you need directions.
A and G
*J, P and M-- it's unlikely you'll be able to join us from Africa, and M from the land of sushi, but we'll be thinking about you all!
We had lots of yummy french inspired food (brie, pate, baguette, and (of course) wine). We also had fruit salad, tomato/basil salad, sausage, crackers and cheese, veggies, and little pastry cookies to name some. It was the perfect night- great weather and great company. We've decided that this will have to become a more regular occurrence. It definitely helped satisfy my urge for brown bagged picnics!!
