8 years agolast modified: 8 years agoHalloween is the most fun holiday to make food & decor for, isn't it?
This reminds me of w/ the Gross Grub cookbook. Even though it's aimed @ kids, it seems like something you might enjoy.

Comments (8)Welcome Azzalea! Oh my, what a FUN thing to do!! A Halloween Party in AUG. Love it! Sounds like all of you made such cute things as well as had a great time. (age is irrelevant for things like this.) I have the same problem as Party and Seas...no one to do stuff with. They are all HERE on the Forum and Janie must've lost the bus keys to pick us up and head for your place! :o) I have a feeling it would be so neat to meet you. I'm glad you joined us here, tho, and hope you can post pictures. hugs, Karen...See MoreHalloween Block Party appetizer idea?
Comments (14)Actually the idea came to me some time ago: 1. A hot dog is a hot dog, itâÂÂs a âÂÂlow-rentâ âÂÂball-parkâ food item even if you wrap bacon around it. How do you make a gourmet appetizer dog? 2. Hot dogs can taste good, but too much fat, and sodium. Of course you can cut a hot dog in half lengthwise, but you will lose a few friends that way. I needed a way of making a hot dog with less meat without making people feel that they are being cheated. 3. How do you make kids eat asparagus? So I came up with this idea, and developed a gadget to make the hot dog tubes precisely and quickly. Interestingly even with a lot of the meat removed, you still get the good feeling that you are eating a hot dog. When you serve it on homemade bun/bread, ------- that elevates the lowly weenie from an underdog to royal connoisseur appetizer status. I agree with Jo, there are other ways of using this concept. This opens up a lot possibilities of hot dog appetizer ideas. I can see all kinds of fillings you can inject inside the tube. The meat removed is not wasted. I found that it gives better texture and taste in making meat balls and meat loaf. dcarch...See MoreOctober FOTESS Swap - Halloween Party!
Comments (419)Shirley! My amazing package arrived yesterday. Brian and I spent the day away from home, and checked the mailbox after we returned late last night. To my relief, your package and another was in there. I am starting to wonder if something drastic must be going on at our regional mail distribution center.... The prize contents are amazing! Thanks so much, but especially for the tea and paper products. Really, I need to come hang out with you and learn how to make some of these cards and gift tags. They are so beautiful. ❤️...See MoreHalloween Spelltacular Party Time! :)
Comments (20)Thank you again, everyone! Hopefully next year, my Winifred costume will be completed, unless I come up with something else (and I have several ideas) ;). Sushipup, thank you! I haven't done much sewing on the machine until this year (the tulle on the cape and my cloak that I'm wearing for my Winnie costume). Contemplating dressing up Monday night for fun, and I might do Winnie for the fun of it (and that way, my mum can take better photos of me). Hocus Pocus came out when I was three years old and I grew up loving it ever since! Bette Midler dressed as Winnie for her annual charity event, Hulaween, tonight. She has said that it's her favorite film that she's ever done. I even made Book! The one I am pictured with is a second copy I am planning on sending my favorite YouTubers since they LOVE Halloween, too. Here is my personal one I plan on using in the future.

8 years agolast modified: 8 years agoCarol, I agree it's a fun time for food and decor. The Gross Grub book looks like a good fit. I've used a lot of Martha Stewart's recipes for Halloween parties over the years. A couple of my favorites are Witch Fingers and Man Toes. Can't even count how many times I've made them...both with pretzel dough and cookie dough. I found this pic of them online. They're kind of old news now, but not so much when I first started making them.

Linda, hopefully soon. I have to shave off my beard first and not quite ready to part with it-lol).
I'm actually not big on grossing people out with food lol. You all should have seen the food yesterday at the cast party. We sure do love to eat! Stromboli, guacamole, cake, ice cream, cookies (courtesy of me-they're called Cheesecake Cookies; they're flour, sugar, butter, and cream cheese with a splash of vanilla, about 1/4 tsp. or so. )
Here's part of my costume, actually. The jacket's made of two different types of fabric, but you can hardly tell in the photo. I'm even doing the pose my character does in stills from the film. I did a little detailing with gold fabric paint as well. Still lost on who I am going to be?

I had mum take some photos of me and I posted them on FB, but here you all go ( I don't have the teeth yet, and I didn't put on the nails, either; Have to fix the earrings, too). I made the dress, shoe covers (crocheted), necklace, (some things I altered and sewed, some just were perfect for it!), bought the broom (tied the green ribbon around it) and the cape is from Spirit Halloween). Book was also made by me. She was a lot of work, but I am touched by the love and support this has gotten. I cannot wait until next Saturday!! I hope you enjoy it, too!
