I love the whole concept of picnics. It is my favorite way
of spending time with family. In Chennai, we used to go picnicking every
alternate months. Most of the times we
used to plan picnics, on the last minute, and I would hurry to make some
sandwiches to carry along. I just loved to spend time sitting on the beach,
enjoying my husband’s company, having fun making sand castles with my son and
eating those home made sandwiches. But since we’ve shifted to Coimbatore, life
has been to busy off lately with something or the other happening. Not that, I
am complaining but I do miss that stuff a lot.
Just to relive those memories, I made my usual picnic
sandwiches at home. I felt really nostalgic while preparing these sandwiches.
Although they are very simple to make, but these sandwiches hold a very special
place in my heart. We call them picnic sandwiches at home.
