Yes - everything was homemade - by us older ladies - aunts, grandmothers, adult cousins. Only the cake was storebought, and it was awesome too.
There were about 50 people to feed throughout the celebration which started right after noon, with people coming and going thruout the day, and it was 10 p.m. when we started cleaning up. A long, but fun day, for sure. I need to get the stuffed mushroom recipe too - it was delicious. I'll give you the bean recipe if you want to use it.

Three bean salad

1 can (15oz) drained cut green beans
" " drained cut wax beans (yellow beans)
" " drained kidney beans (dark or light)
1 green bell pepper chopped
1 small onion chopped
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup salad oil
2/3 cup cider vinegar
Place beans, pepper and onion in bowl. Mix seasonings, oil and vinegar. Pour over bean mixture and marinate over night in fridge. Serve cold.

You can even throw in some other things not in the recipe. I like some fresh cut mushroom, and small cheese cubes of any kind in it too. If you find it too "vinergy" for your taste, just add a tad bit more sugar.

If I'm making it for a good sized gathering, I sometimes double the recipe too.

Congrats to your daughter - and you too. The kids do the work, but the parents do the prodding! And it really pays off in the end.
