Holy crap, my menu is so simple compared to all your feasts, lol. I'm officially hungry!

We're having a backyard BBQ type with burgers and hot dogs (and four turkey burgers for our guests that don't/can't eat beef)

Baked beans, mac n cheese, fruit salad, green salad, macaroni salad, potato salad, pasta salad, broccoli salad, fruit tray, veggie tray, and a chicken orzo salad.

Cake is vanilla/vanilla buttercream with rasp bavarian cream filling. We also have a sheet of chocolate/chocolate buttercream with chocolate mousse filling (chocolate overload, FI request lol).
