If you’ve taken a look at Issue 3, perhaps Lea’s innovative Jarfaits, portable parfaits for a take home treat, caught your attention. Well, Lisa Moore’s picnic in a jar caught our attention! Lisa is a fan of Nesting Newbies and she’s a twenty-something mother of three who enjoys entertaining, parties and decorating…sounds like our favorite kind of newbie : ) Lisa writes Moore Minutes, sharing the beauty she finds in everyday life {sweet!}
Lisa recently did a post we’d like to share…The Charms of a Summertime Picnic. In it she says, “Jars are an excellent way to hold picnic food! They transport easily and look much prettier than tupperware. It’s a simple way to add beauty to the table and still keep it functional {what a cool idea}.” Take a look at a few examples:
Tapioca pudding with fresh blackberries and whip cream
Layered green salad with homemade dressing
Check out the rest of the story on her blog.

in my house, we’ve been amassing a small collection of jars– both screw-top and clamp-closing types. mostly, we use them to store pasta and rice and whatnot, but i think i might start using them to bring my lunch to work! especially because it may be a more appetizing presentation for leftovers :-)
This is a great post! Lisa is full of great idea’s and makes every gathering special.
