Ted blows her a quick little kiss (once Sherlock's back is turned), before he closes the door to the kitchen, to give them all privacy to do their own things.
He puts a podcast on speaker on his phone, and then he starts organizing the groceries, packing away stuff he'll need later, and assembling stuff he's going to use now.
Then he sets about making food for a picnic. Several varieties of sandwiches. Cut-up fruits and healthy snacks. A smoothie, just in case that gets too heavy. He does make sure to stay seated as much as possible as he does this, taking his time and enjoying the process.
By the time he finally emerges from the kitchen, it's been a number of hours since they started working on this evidence.
"Alright, y'all," he says to get their attention. "I'm gonna go shave, change my clothes, all that good stuff, and then we are going to have a picnic in the park." (He has a kid - he knows to give at least a 10 minute warning for activity changes so they can wrap up.)
