Poolside Picnic Party

Poolside picnics are the essence of a happy, lazy summer. The sun bakes your cholorine- and suncreen-scented skin dry and your hair settles into beachy waves (no stinging salt water necessary) while a soundtrack of Marco Polo plays in the background. This picnic is all about keeping things simple--salads that taste best at room temperature, and a pink limeade that will keep you cool--so you can focus on what really matters. Namely, that delicious page-turner. --Sarah McColl, Shine staff
