Would like to travel back and taste that Wonder Bread.
Probably quite different to the tasteless, plastic-textured mass produced bread today?

Having some fun with AI tools these days, this pic seems like a perfect candidate to have a go on:

a peach, a woven, and a tin basket.

Looks like a great spread.

The first taste I had of that delectable dish of fried chicken, was when my mother-in-law made it (in a well-seasoned cast iron deep pan) for our first family trip together after my wife and I had been married a few months.

In the UK, I had been used to the Colonel's secret recipe. I can tell you he had nothing on my mother-in-law's fried chicken.

Home grown tomatoes, the best fried chicken and my beautiful wife and family on our first Picinic together. We actually sat on the grass on a blanket just like this.

Oh the memories just like these well-dressed folks.

The handy food conveyances include a traditional three-color wood splint hamper with two steamed wood handles and a painted wood top cover, at center; an enameled sheet metal version with faux splints at lower left; and an all-purpose undecorated wood splint "market basket" at far right, with one wood handle and no cover. Looks like next-generation ice chests haven't entered picnic service as yet.

In those days you dressed up to do all sorts of ordinary things if people were going to see you. And I guess all the tables were devoted to the war effort.

First they overdress for the occasion and then nobody thinks to bring a lousy table?
I gotta tell you, I've had with these folks.

If they had all those folding chairs, wouldn't there have been a few folding tables -- even a card table -- they could have tucked into the bed of the truck?

Eh, I just figured there had to be a truck at a picnic in Missouri.

... would look great in colour. Anyone brave enough to try it?
