Date nights keep a marriage/relationship fresh, Anne, and your picnic was perfect.

I think of our breakfasts on the porch as a type of date. No distractions other than the wildlife. If my phone is present, it's only there if a wildlife photo opportunity appears. But, I do try to only take photos when I feed the ducks and squirrels before we sit down. Breakfast is slow and easy - a special time for us.
