Abstract

A lap-tray and picnic-supply case made of light material has a case receptacle (1) with a lap-tray lid (2) attached removably. The lap-tray lid has a lid-plate cradle (3) intermediate a bowl end with a lid-bowl cradle (4) and a cup end with a lid-cup cradle (5). Between the lid-bowl cradle and the lid-plate cradle is a first lid-utensil cradle (6) and between the lid-cup cradle and the lid-plate cradle is a second lid-utensil cradle (7). The lid-bowl cradle and the lid-cup cradle protrude downwardly to provide lap-side buttresses on outsides of legs (8) of a user. The first lid-utensil cradle and the second lid-utensil cradle have flat bottom surfaces for resting on the user's lap between opposite sides of an attachment rim (11) for fitting down over a top of a receptacle wall (10). The case receptacle has a plate compartment (12) below the lid-plate cradle, a bowl compartment (13) below the lid-bowl cradle, a napkin compartment (14) below the lid-cup cradle and a utensil compartment (15) below the first lid-utensil cradle for vertical stacking below the lap-lid tray. Cups (22) are stacked horizontally in a straight-walled bottom section having a case rest (17) on which the case rests in an upright carrying orientation. One or more inside trays (28) fit under the lap-tray lid and over compartment walls (37).
