Halloween 2011

On Oct. 29th this year we had a Halloween party and it was a good time!
I tried a few new recipes and they seemed to be a hit!

Deviled Green Goblin Eggs



SIMPLE PIMPLES

1-2 dozen cherry tomatoes

flavored soft cream cheese spread

Core tomatoes with a carrot peeler or knife. Drain excess tomato juice. Using a butter knife, fill holes in tomatoes with cream cheese. Give each "pimple" a gentle squeeze and arrange on a platter.





BLOODY BUG JUICE
24 oz frozen strawberries, thawed
6 oz lemonade, frozen concentrate
1 quart ginger ale
1 cup raisins
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
Place the strawberries in a bowl and mash with a fork. In a large pitcher, mix the strawberry mash, lemonade and ginger ale. Place handfuls of raisins and blueberries (bugs) into tall glasses. Pour the liquid over the bugs, then sit back and watch the bugs and scum rise to the top of each glass.
To quench a creepy crowd's thirst, double or triple this recipe and serve in a punch bowl. Drape some gummy worms over the rim of your bowl for a particularly swampy-looking effect!


Of course we had chips & dip and some of the other usual party snacks but we had a great time too! :)

30 Day WHAT I LIKE ABOUT BOYS Challenge: Post #30

(30/30)

I like a boy who thinks he is smarter than me but actually isn't.
I find delight in showing a boy just how much brain I actually have and it is fun to match wits with them. It is better when they appreciate your intelligence and also enjoy matching wits with you.  I do NOT like boys who think they are smarter than me and do NOT recognize that I am NOT stupid.
Sometimes in that case I am tempted to show them up...but, there wouldn't really be much point or fun in it.
It is enough for me to know that I could if I wanted to. ;)
The best fun is a smart boy who thinks he's dealing with another "dumb" girl only to see in a short period of time...heyyyyyyy this one can actually have a conversation! The look on their faces is priceless!
