The Perfect Spring Picnic

[@RobynDeLaVie]

Does anyone else feel as though they’ve landed on a gorgeous television show that just teaches you the importance of looking at your life through a beautiful lense?!

[@NicolasFairford]

I'm so happy that you feel this way!

[@prekcop]

Yes and so relaxing , Nicolas Is human glass bottle of Calgon after a hectic day ..... kudos .!.!!!

[@loreeluther348]

Absolutely!

[@rosemiller8425]

Yes

[@rosemiller8425]

Sure do

[@carolynshepherd4153]

You have a winning formula......high style, sumptuous esthetic, simple but delicious food, and not a trace of pretension or haughtiness! A recipe for success imho

[@philiprandall473]

Lol... totally!

So thankful for your kind comment - Thank you!

It’s a wonder the TV don’t snatch you up Nicolas,or some home magazine. Your channel is really a delight to watch. Love your etiquette in all things nice. Thankyou.

[@IndigoSoulMama]

You have certainly found your calling, darling! Please, please continue to brighten this world with your delicate, comforting presence, charm, talent, and all the wonderful things that makeup you. I so needed this today, you have no idea. It feels as though I am with a friend who is trying to cheer me up and heal my broken heart.

The beautiful outdoors, a taste of Summer, delicious food and enjoying some glorious freedom after a long year! This video brightens my day and gives us all hope! Beautifully done, Nicholas!

I had a long morning. My son had a medical procedure done. I could only wait in the lobby of medial building social distancing. I watched this video it was what I needed to calm me! Thank you for the delicious recipes. Easy to make! Beautiful looking picnic spread. You inspire us to enjoy the simple pleasures in life! So good to see all of you having a fun time. Sending hugs 🤗 from California. See you next Friday!

[@seanwilkinson876]

Hope the procedure was successful.

[@maryjanegrosclaude1913]

That looks like the best picnic I’ve ever seen. Surprisingly you made everything look easy. I would have been thrilled to have been invited to your picnic. Well done Nicolas!

[@NicolasFairford]

Wow - thank you!

[@reneeroyal9281]

I vote yes, and I feel very strongly about these episodes being on HGTV. It's time that you are recognized to host a television show and a magazine. Everything about that picnic is thoughtfully perfection.

[@carolhomick4467]

Nicholas is too sophisticated for HGTV. Yes?

[@reneeroyal9281]

@@carolhomick4467 😊 Yes indeed, Nicholas is gifted. I'm going to be right here to watch him soar pass HGTV.😁

Don’t we all wish we could squeeze in and join in on that luxurious picnic? ☺️

[@LMoon20]

I thought i was doing well buying my wee picnic plates and lovely napkins. This is outstanding. You’ve set the bar high Nicolas...I’m going to enjoy putting the effort in to make mine wonderful.

[@jsmith5509]

@Loretta Moon, I can relate! This picnic setting has raised the bar on outdoor AND indoor dining!

[@ArcaneWeasel]

Don’t sell yourself short. You can do anything you put your mind to and I bet your menu has/had more variety.

[@NicolasFairford]

I'm sure your picnic was just as wonderful x x

Excellent youtube videos, Mr. Nicolas Fairford. Fantastic job on capturing the beauty of Scotland. Fantastic job on filming & hosting.

[@carole8142]

I adore the way you use a paintbrush instead of a pastry brush. You are showing us all that there is always another way to do things. Thanks Nicolas for taking the time to share with us. Carole from New Zealand. Be Happy.

[@NicolasFairford]

Thank you so much Carole x

[@gill2292]

I was thinking of doing a picnic with the family..you know, maybe sandwhiches, fruit, tea in a flask, all in a big red cooler and a blanket!! After watching the video, I definately need to turn it up a notch!! Love the cozy outdoor set up, the classic wicker picnic basket, the cushions and low chairs. Once it gets darker maybe I would add fairy lights..You created such a beautiful afternoon picnic. Thank you for the wonderful ideas as always.

[@decemberclouds]

The weather is rather nice lately, so I think it is time for a picnic. :) Thank you Nicolas. Also everyone: say YES to real cutlery, plates and glasses at a picnic!
