Mid-June in Sonoma Valley this year was spectacularly warm, but not too warm. Let’s call it perfect weather for sipping wine and collapsing onto a picnic blanket. During our wonderful weekend stay in the area with some family and friends - and our beautiful little niece about to take her first steps - we packed up some cheese and crusty bread, a summery couscous salad, a bunch of fresh fruit and headed out for a lazy summer afternoon picnic in wine country.

We love that our niece is one of those kids who will try everything and enjoys eating almost anything, and we enjoyed nothing more than spending a simple afternoon with her on the grass.
This girl has some sophisticated baby tastebuds!

A yummy asparagus, avocado and tomato feast!

Bacci baby.

No cheating!

Naptime anyone?

That’s right.
