April 23 is National Picnic Day. Celebrate the occasion by packing a basket, grabbing a blanket and heading to your favorite picnic spot.

Back story
THE WORD “PICNIC” evolved from the French expression pique-nique, which described a group of people who met for dinner at a restaurant and brought their own wine. After the French opened the country’s royal gardens and parks to the public following the revolution of 1789, the term came to refer to groups who shared meals outdoors. If you’re planning to celebrate the day with family and friends, Costco warehouses and Costco.com stock all kinds of quality picnic-friendly food, drinks and supplies.

Kirkland Signature™ Pinot Noir from Carneros is rich and elegant, with aromas of ripe cherry and rhubarb counterbalanced by darker black fruit and forest floor notes, with a hint of spice from French oak barrels. Select warehouses only. Item 505074.

GREAT SCOT!

It’s time for Tartan Day

April 6 is Tartan Day. The day recognizes the Declaration of Arbroath, a document signed on April 6, 1320, that was sent to the pope to declare Scotland’s independence from England. Particularly relevant to Americans: With many of our Founding Fathers being of Scottish descent, Scotland’s declaration was used as a model for our own Declaration of Independence.
