Playlist: Let’s Go On A Picnic / Lay In The Grass

Is it warm where you are? Is it at least warmer than it was last week? If so, maybe it’s a good time to go outside — perhaps even eat some food while you’re there! I’m thinking that there must be literally zillions of people like me who are going to will spring to happen and also like sitting on blankets and eating food with their hands, and I’ll bet my bottom dollar you’re one of them!

If you have the right weather for listening to this outside, please do that. But if not, put your sunglasses on inside and live the dream anyway.
