Picnicking
&
Tailgating:
I
have done this just before leaving for the picnic or tailgate
party. I have done
it also ahead of time. When
I do it ahead of time, I warm it up in the microwave before
packing it for the trip. Then
I place it in thermal container until I reach
the picnic or tailgate site.
