Picnics of New England

Imagine Maine lobsters and fresh blueberry pie savored outdoors on the same rockbound coast that inspired Homer and Hopper; a crusty loaf stuffed with melted cheeses, artichoke hearts and roasted peppers enjoyed in the sunny warmth of an island painted by Turner, or a colorful picnic of grilled lamb, wild rice salad with dried cranberries and a harvest tart of apples and apricots to match the painterly colors of an Ipswich autumn. The rich and varied New England landscape- with its island-dotted coast, forest-covered mountains and charming villages - inspires painters and picnickers alike to seek the perfect destination. Picnics of New England provides the reader with recipes and tips for eight memorable feasts.Hirshler, Erica is the author of 'Picnics of New England' with ISBN 9780878464425 and ISBN 0878464425.
