YouTube link First of all, I'm a Pennsylvania Yankee, so none of this Manassas nonsense! Harrumph! 😄 Secondly, as usual Max provides recipes.

Manassas! However, that brandy pound cake looks pretty good.

Someone who can be bothered with posting Comments should link to the Old Glory BULL RUN Civilian set. link Max always has a Pokémon figure behind him, so I'm sure he would appreciate another nerd hobby reference.

Great figures but none are actually picnicking. They also lack carriages and buckboards to flee across Bull Run from the Manassas battlefield. I'm not from Pennsylvania although I know some some nice folks from there.

There are plenty of sources out there for buckboards and carriages.

Perfect recipes for a proper Memorial Day picnic in the cemetery!
