Le Pique-Nique

Sunny days in The City call for a mob scene in Dolores Park. On my way to meet Michelle for lunch, I checked out a couple of vendors who'd set up shop on the grass; for $3, I bought a perfect taste of strawberry season: fresa agua fresca. Just enought sweetness, plenty of berry seeds lingering at the bottom of my cup. Nothing could have tasted better.
That said, the sandwiches we ordered at BiRite's deli were top-notch. Both of us liked the sound of a hummus-avocado sandwich with snappy little pickled peppers on seedy Semifreddi bread. We ate them in a sunny spot on the grass, while people played tennis and dogs trotted by with balls in their happy mouths. Ah oui, j'aime le printemps.
