My first post in the New Year!

Happy New Year!! We spent a lovely night with friends, eating and playing games. The kids had a great time too. This was our first New Years party and I forgot my camera. How did I do this? I ALWAYS have a camera with me. I missed awesome photo ops for awesome scrapbooking layouts. So this morning we are just hanging out watching cartoons, a great start to a 2010!

We are making sausage and peppers for dinner, a family tradition for New Years here is the side we are making:
Gram's 3 Bean Salad:

1 (15 ounce) can green beans
1 (15 ounce) wax beans
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 onion, sliced into thin rings
1 green pepper, chopped
3/4 cup white sugar
2/3 cup distilled white vinegar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Mix sugar, vinegar, oil, salt and black pepper in bowl. Add beans and chopped green peppers and onions. Refridge for several hours or overnight. Enjoy!
