Picnic Like a Pro
It’s summer, and if you’re anything like me, being indoors just doesn’t feel right.
I have two words for you: Shabbat. Picnic.
Whether it’s in your backyard or at a local park, OneTable’s here to support you and your picnic needs. Get lost in our special “OneBlanket” picnic board on Pinterest for inspiration.

Step 1: Picnic Blanket
Select Etsy as your Nourishment option to get yourself a beautiful, timeless picnic blanket.
I did the work for you and picked out three of my favorites.
Click the photos below to be directed to the Etsy shops where I found these gems.
Step 2: #FoodPorn
Picnics can be tricky. The food must be able to travel and there’s typically no place to reheat it.
I found a few simple summer salads that will survive no matter how far you’re venturing.

Step 3: Drinks
Instead of schlepping a heavy bottle of wine, why not try making some of these awesome mason jar cocktails together? Comment at the bottom of the page with your favorite one.
Step 4: Desserts, Duh
Never trust anyone who says they are too full for dessert. Try these fun dessert kebabs that are sure to be a crowd pleaser. They’re easy to pack and serve, or assemble on the spot.
Step 5: Chill out and Nosh Away
Jam out to this awesome picnic playlist while indulging in all the delightful food and company.
Here are some tips to make your Shabbat picnic ritual-friendly:
- Electric tea lights make beautiful “candles” and you can get these inexpensive lanterns to kick it up a notch.
- Plastic wine glasses!
- Use a twister mat as your “table” and have a built in game.
