The other day Michael & I grabbed a blanket, the dogs, some snacks, & a chilled bottle of pinto Grigio & headed to the park for a picnic.
Now, if we are being real, this picnic was spur of the moment kinda thing so I didn’t like have time to whip up casual cucumber sandwiches or slice Brie cheese BUTTTT I did have time to grab some healthy, quick packaged snacks.
And the wine, of course duh.
We bundled the dogs up & made sure their leashes were SUPER secure because we had a little scare with T.Boone Pickens ( he got off his leash for 5.5 seconds 3 weeks ago & it sent us into a full blown, hyperventilating panic ).
Anyway, I naturally had to dress the part in picnic attire…think a wide brimmed hat, a blue and white tablecloth-ish dress, & white shoes ( bet ya already knew that though ). I feel like Michael could have risen to the occasion a bit more ( I mean, babe come on a white tee & jeans? Really? More effort next time ).
So for the healthy snacks: there’s this rad company called NatureBox that’s kind of like a Skinny Confidential reader’s dream. Basically every month you get a box of healthy, delish snacks free from high fructose corn syrup, trans fat, artificial flavors, colors, & sweeteners. This month I choose the dried pineapple, trail mix, little oatmeal packets (heyyyyy on-the-go breakfast), white truffle popcorn, & dried apple slices ( there’s 100 options to choose from ). The picnic idea came about when my box arrived. I feel like this concept is insane because it’s healthy options right to my door that are QUICK, accessible, & damn good. If you want a free trial, click here ( this includes a selection of the top favorite snacks ). Michael was literally stuffing the white truffle popcorn down his throat like a hog. Lol.
Other picnic details: don’t forget to bring a wine opener because that’s the worst thing ever when you have chilled wine with no opener. Add some music on your iPhone ( Brazilian Lounge for me, duh ). And bring some flowers because it evokes that whole 50’s picnic feel. Lastly, pick a grassy spot that’s private ( a little romance never hurt a flea ).
Fun right? The perfect weekend activity. And for the record, T.Boone didn’t try to pull a fast one.

Hi Lauryn! I’ve been following you for a few years now and love that all of your tips are about BALANCE. As a workaholic who has trouble finding time to cook, I am always looking for healthy snacks so this is very exciting. My favorites from NatureBox are the coffee kettle popcorn and and greek yogurt pretzels! I’ve been living in India for the past year and mostly eating rice, so I am so excited to come back to the U.S. and find my health and fitness balance again!
Thanks for the inspiration.

soooo, snacks. YUM. let’s start with the pineapple coconut bars… hello! it’s like a piña colada in a chocolate bar?! SIGN ME UP! secondly I would have to go with the Honey Dijon Pretzels. I am a suuucker for mustard pretzels and finding ones that are not bad for you?! BOOM.
Apple pie oat clusters and dark cocoa almonds look amazing, but honestly it was hard to choose. I had no idea there were so many options. I’m definitely going to take a closer look.

Chocolate banana chips and chocolate hazelnut granola!
Your dogs are so precious.. do I spy Pixie wearing her own picnic dress?!
As for the snacks… I personally love the probiotic power mix — its filled with cranberries, dried apples, greek-style yogurt apricots and nuts and seeds. I try to stay away from snacking too much so if I’m going to snack I definitely want it to be something that’s not junk and something that gives me loads of energy! I also really like dried fruit so my second snack would have to be the dried mango.. nomz.
Pistachio power clusters!!! Probiotic power mix!! Double yum!!
my two favorite snacks on the naturebox site are probably the big island pineapple and mini Belgian waffles
My boss at work has a Nature Box subscription and it’s fantastic! He always brings it down to the shop so me and him can munch away while we’re working on tasty teats. My favs so far are:
Lemon tea biscuits
roasted peruvian corn kernels
honey crunch crisps
santa fe corn stix
They are amazing. There was another one that I loved months ago, but I can’t remember the name of it. It was a sweet and super flavourful corn chip type thing. SO yummy.
Oh how I love these boxes!! My 2 favorites are the Sweet Blueberry Almonds and the Double Berry Fruit Peels. I love how the Blueberry Almonds are a twist on the typical chocolate or yogurt covered almonds. The Berry Fruit Peels takes me back to my childhood with fruit roll ups galore, but without the nasty ass additives and high fructose corn syrup!! In reference to T.Boone getting off his leash…we have a little chihuahua named Moose, and sometimes they just have a damn mind of their own!

Love this – I’m always on the lookout for snacks to switch it up that aren’t full of nasty. And the picnic was to die cute. I’d have to pick the dried fruit and the blueberry almonds. Yummy!
The dark cocoa almonds (yum yum) and chocolate chia granola (divine in my morning Greek yogurt) would be my top 2 picks! But seriously, how can you pick just two 😉
Everything looks so yummy and I’ve already spent so long thinking about them all… If I had to choose two, I’d choose the dark cocoa almonds and the Dijon mustard pretzels!! Thanks so much for this amazing giveaway!
I know this seems counter intuitive but if your pup ever gets off leash again and you’re afraid of him running off, try running in the opposite direction while calling out to him. Chances are he’ll see you running the opposite direction and want to chase you to play! I’ve seen this work 99% of the time (my fiance trains dogs)! And then once he comes to you, PRAISE THE EVER LIVING LIFE OUT OF HIM! I hate seeing people who’s dogs get off leash and then once the dog finally comes back to them, they scold the dog for getting away. Dogs associate the last action with the type of reward they get. So running back to you and getting scolded is what they’ll remember which makes them less likely to come back the second time since they had a negative experience with coming back. So to have repeat success of recall, praise for them coming to you! OK. sorry we’re dog nuts in our household and just like to share the knowledge about an easy trick to recall your pet!
All the best!

A few more austin things
Cenote is a cut house restaurant on Cesar Chavez that sells bottled Kombucha made in Austin, also connected to it is ju ju juice where you can get some good green juice.
A fancy bar to hang out at is the Driskill it may be a hotel but it’s not touristy. Locals enjoy their bakery and bar all the time. Our company Christmas party always starts the night out at the Driskill bar because it seems fancy. Epicerie is a neat little place to eat. And then not healthy but probably THE BEST is Gourdoughs. They are famous for their amazing uh may zing donuts but they also have other food and a bar. The one on 5th street is so neat. I’d definitely go there.
the dried mango and pineapple coconut
Oh my, my mouth is watering now. The Big Island Pineapple Rings & Sweet and Salty nut mix sound delicious. Thanks for the giveaway!
I love this! My husband and I try to do picnics for our anniversary each year with wine and a fancy dessert, and our dog, of course! So fun!
