@josepha, I really enjoyed your post; it deserves nothing but praise. In my view, you truly captured the essence of a picnic: it is always held outdoors—amidst fresh air and a beautiful setting like a green lawn, trees, or a park. What could be better?
I was also struck by your genuine hospitality; you selected the finest ingredients and dishes, yet made no mention of costs.

My country shares this same culture of hospitality: guests are treated to the very best, and no money changes hands—the host organizing the picnic covers everything.
