Answer 1

Do sandwiches cut in quarters or halves, with pasta salad or potato salad, chips, pickles and maybe jello. That sounds yummy.

Answer 2

Get a chicken boxed lunch!*

Answer 3

Take? Probably HER would be a good start.Maybe a couple shots of rum for you and a couple of bottles of margarita for her.And sammitches cuz you didn't mention if you would be able to grill there.

Answer 4

Take a tuna or egg salad sandwich, fruit and some chips.

Answer 5

wel....what does your mom like to eat? maybe a nice green salad and some tuna sandwiches.... potato salad or pasta salad....drinks maybe some fresh lemonade...it really depends on what you think she will like.

Answer 6

I would take a lot of her favorite foods and tell her.  She will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Answer 7

are u bringing a grill to cook hot dogs??

i think you should take a homemade cold pasta salad with some vegetables, make some wraps instead of sandwiches a thermus filled with some soup and u got dessert covered

dont forget utensils and drinks

Answer 8

Artisan breads, a few good cheeses to spread on them, like a brie or goat cheese, fresh fruit, maybe some fresh veggies as well.  How about some wine..

Answer 9

- A crusty loaf of good french bread.

- Her favorite cheese to have with the bread

- Sliced tomatoes

- A pasta salad with shrimp or chicken

- Grapes or berries

Answer 10

When I go i usually order everything. Subway, Hotwings Cafe, Chips, Dips, Salads, and make BBQ.

BTW DON'T FORGET THE VODKA =]

Answer 11

Hamburgers might be a good option too. What about flowers? Everyone like flowers. You can put them around where your picnic is going to be. I suggest daises, roses, and daffodils. Having a flowery theme might make everyone at ease and distract them from the humid and heat.

Answer 12

Well, If you're going to a park you can cook the hot dogs on the spot. Go to Buehlers and get some coleslaw or potato salad. Get some watermelon [a traditional picnic food] some chips of course. I recommend Doritos, Regular Lays, or Snyder's BBQ. If you and your mom like salad make a quick salad for the both of you before you go.

Hope your Mom has a great birthday picnic!

Good Luck!

Answer 13

i love sandwiches. Absolutely the most brilliant invention.. i mean food. :P Stay away from hotdogs, those are not good for you. As oppose to sandwich, its much healthier (maybe stick with wheat bread) its fresh? and its delicious. im gonna go get on today for lunch :)

Robert- Um....i dont think they would be slamming down vodka. Bring some white wine, if you do. Its more appropriate.

Answer 14

There is a great recipe for Michigan Salad on

Try to avoid things that need to be refrigerated.  I would go for cold fried chicken to avoid the need to heat up brats or dogs.  ... but that's just me.

Good luck.  Have a wonderful time, and wish your mom happy birthday!
