| we will host a few kids Halloween night for a pre TOT dinner and I wanted to create a "spooky" menu for the kids and their parents. Nothing too fancy, just something fun for everyone to enjoy before we head out. The kids range in age from 4-10, all boys. There will be 5 or 6 families..anyone have some Halloween inspired recipes they want to share? thanks! |

23:27 makes me think of a pix I saw of the Jack o'lantern barfing out the dip. (Kind of gross looking, but young boys might appreciated the humor.) I think it was on Pinterest.
We went to a Halloween party once where the mom used those plastic gloves, colored in the nails, filled them with veggie bootie, and put a plastic spider ring. A little creepy looking. (I would use latex free gloves in case anyone has an allergy. I've seen the gloves at the grocery store.) |
that is perfect! |
I suggest guacamole for the dip--green and chunky! |
