Picnic the Victorian Way
 

Modern-day picnickers could learn from the Victorians, who wouldn't dream of eating outdoors until it was as civilized as eating in a dining room.  And the food was just as sumptuous: iced beverage rolled in wet newspaper to preserve the chill, lobster tails with homemade mayonnaise, cold poached chicken with cream sauce and of course we can't forget dessert....an array of fresh fruit, cakes and chocolate.
