Why do people like picnics? What is the appeal of eating outside? There are ants and wasps and small children with sticky fingers and faces. There is wind, often sand, always dirt. Even if the food started warm, it ends up cold. And, let's face it, it'll probably rain.
And for that matter, why do people like fancy restaurants? Why pay through the nose for a tiny portion of something that doesn't taste all that good anyway? You'll just end up waking up hungry in the middle of the night and raiding the fridge. And that's if you don't stop at the drive-through on the way home.
No, I've come to the conclusion that any meal that cannot be eaten in your pyjamas in your living room probably isn't worth having. And yet, there's still a picnic basket in the cupboard. It's a nifty Ikea one, though, which makes it okay.
