060409 The Picnic

Just a perfect day // Drink sangria in the park // And then later, when it gets dark, we go home

At CincyPunk Fest there was a silent auction, where the musicians that played the fest auctioned off items to raise money for charity. TSS chose to auction off a picnic with The Seedy Seeds.

Three rather sweet folks pooled some cash and bought us for a day. After a couple of reschedulements, it was on.


WE ARE HAVING FUN DO YOU SEE.



Margaret and I (ok Margaret) cooked up some vegan goodness that was truly remarkably delicious.

Salad of corn, asparagus, summer squash, zucchini squash, black eyed peas, fresh basil, onion and sweet bell pepper, dressed with lime juice and salt and pepper


Corn and potato soup with sweet bell pepper, caramelized onions and summer squash


Doubledecker PB and J's, with multigrain seedy bread and blackberry jelly. Handcrafted by the Bribot.


Seedy spread.


YAY! THIS FOOD IS AWESOME!



After enjoying some delightful food, beverages and company, we decided to enjoy some fine cigars while we retook our senior photos:

What a long, strange trip it's been!


WHAT A TOTEMLY AWESOME PICNIC


(It's worth mentioning at this point, as a reminder to all, that Margaret really is in this band, and she is not a vampire, she's just not in a lot of photos because she takes most of them. Every once in a while we try to photoshop her in or hire a street performer to take her picture. We've lost a couple of cameras that way so we decided to stop.)

After a completely awesome evening of carousing and merriment, we were run off by the local constabulary, so we decided to head on down to the local watering hole and continue the fun over some sweet, sweet Karaoke.

A very special thank-you to Kate for lending me her get-out-of-jail-free card.
