Menu!

The menu is finalized (at last)!

The cookie reception (immediately after the ceremony):

Cookies (too many varieties to count...the Youngstown cookie table is an epic tradition! The cookies will be baked by my family, Adam's family, friends at church, family friends...the list goes on and on, and it seems that the one thing everyone wants to do to help is bake cookies!)

Fresh fruit (from Chapters)

Punch (homemade)

The lakeside picnic:

Roasted pig (roasted by my mom's friend)

Chicken (possibly chicken romano from Chapters, if we can afford it...)

Baked beans (homemade)

Green beans (homemade)

Pasta Salad (homemade)

Sweet Potato Salad (made by Vanessa, my mother's friend)

Pierogies (bought frozen from GFS, then sautéed in butter and onions)

Halushki (made by Alice)

Chips (bought)

Cupcakes (some homemade, some from Chapters)

Champagne punch (homemade)

Soda (bought)

Favors:

Homemade jam (again, too many varieties to list, but to name a few: raspberry jam, blueberry jam, peach jam, strawberry jam, orange marmelade, apple butter, pear jam...)

Candy corn bags (bought)
