Boy Howdy, do I have another winning picnic basket to tantalize you with again. It’s assembled by Abbe Odenwalder at This is How I Cook. She writes a wonderful blog, which I have enjoyed for almost two years. Take a look and drool at what she prepared for all of us and see what a Denver picnic basket looks like!

Abbe says, every picnic needs a cake—aTexas Chocolate Sheet Cake. This is her standby recipe, which she has served to many friends.

Cream Cheese Pound Cake for the chocolate haters as Abbe said—albeit I am not sure chocolate haters would be in my social circle. Now I would want a piece of both of the delicious cakes!!!!!

Abbe does good stuff, doesn’t she? And she sure delivered with this picnic! What a wonderful array of goodies — everything looks so nice. And what a great picture of her and the Manservant at the top of the post. 😀
Carol says
Yeah she looks great doesn’t she. Ha! She and I have visions of getting together and knocking back a few of her favorite featured cocktails, which sounds like a splendid idea to me.
