I usually make the usual party fair, but give them different names. Chicken
wings become bat wings. My Spinach Marie becomes pond scum. Devil eggs are
easy to make look like eyeballs. Just don't make many, because they won't
be eaten. Even though they taste great it's the one thing that people are
really squeamish about. Just use your imagination and surf for ideas on the
net.

I like to make "ladyfingers" for Halloween.

Take breadstick dough and form short fingers. I use canned dough and
cut the sticks in half across the width.

Pinch each finger halfway up and close to the end to make knuckles.
Take a knife and lightly draw two or three cracks across each knuckle.

Shake some almond halves in a plastic bag with a few drops of red food
coloring to make fingernails. Press a fingernail into the end of
each finger.

Bake the fingers according to the breadstick recipe.

Easy enough to make frosted cupcakes decorated with white cotton candy
spiderwebs and a piped black widow atop each.

Spider cake:

Bake cake in a small SS bowl and a larger one. Scoop out most of the
inside, leaving about a 1.5" shell. Allow lime gelatin to thicken,
then whip til foamy. Pour into the shells and allow to set in the
fridge. Unmold 'em side by side, frost, (gray-tinted frosting with
yellow stripes?) add marachino cherries for eyes, licorice strips for
legs.

When you cut into it, the green plops or oozes out....

Best -- Terry

An departed rfc poster has just the website for you... it's still up
and running. His name is Bert Christensen - if I was at my home
computer I'd give you the site. I know some people here are also in
touch with him, so maybe someone else can post it in this thread.

Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Wouldn't a "lately absent" rfc poster be a better choice of words...
"departed" implies he's dead, as in dearly departed.

Some of the scurvy pukes that post here are "dead" even though they'd have
us think "otherwise", Sheldon...
