Dessert: The Washington Park Summer Concert Festival offers blanket loungers the opportunity to graze on quaint sugary treats while listening to the music. Chocolate and fresh berries were the perfect accompaniment to this night's melodies played by the Oregon Symphony. We couldn't decide which was more delectable--the music or the dessert.
