Kardea Brown picnics in the park with friends and her favorite one-hand wonders like rotisserie chicken salad sandwiches with homemade bacon jam and chilled black-eyed pea salad; the relaxing summer lunch finishes with delicious blackberry hand pies.

It's Kardea Brown's favorite time of the year, shrimp season in Charleston; This year she's making Fried Shrimp Baskets, and her mom helps out with her Famous Hand Cut Fries and a fresh Grilled Shrimp Cobb Salad.

Kardea Brown hits the beach with friends for some fun in the sun and a summer-perfect picnic featuring a low-country boil, fresh peach arugula salad and sparkling summer lemonade; for a sweet treat, frozen confetti vanilla whoopie pies hit the spot.
