Sunday morning #reading • A blanket, a handful of strawberries, some boiled eggs and a chilled bottle of bubbles. "Whether it is out of the boot of a Land Rover or a cigarette and strawberries à la Sebastian Flyte, there is something inherently romantic about picnicking. It is an art form. And like all good art, there’s not just one way to do it. And yet still, one can always recognize when a picnic is done right. The devil is in the details." . . .
