For round two of the Retro Recipe Challenge, the theme is outdoor wingdings – parties held outside.

First, pick a party you’ll be cooking for: church picnic? Sophisticated bridal shower? Family Reunion & BBQ? Hawaiian luau? Be as casual or as extravagant as you like. Then, pick a recipe that fits your chosen outdoor party.

The recipe should come from a time between 1920 and 1970, inclusive. Cook/bake/gel it up, take pictures, and post it on your blog. Please cite your recipe sources and don’t forget to let us know what type of party you’re cooking for. When you’re finished, send me the link to be featured in the next RRC round-up.

The deadline for submission is Wednesday, July 12 at 11:59pm EST. The round-up will be posted a few days later.

Have fun and get cooking!
