Fall Recipes

I had a church activity last night and it was so much fun! The theme was Food and Fun and we had plenty. We played a few get to know you games since there are so many new people in the area and then we ate some yummy fall food. All the recipes turned out great and everyone asked where they could get them so I thought I would share.

Witch and Warlock Tea Party Part 3-Food

After games was food. I had everyone bring something to share. I didn't take a picture of everything that was brought but I should have. People always have so much fun with this. We had skeleton cookies, bone pretzles, dirt pudding and more.

I made my scarecrow dip I mentioned before and I also made these RIP PB&J sandwiches.

And some witch hat cookies. Both really simple to make.

I also had a pumpkin ice cube tray and poured orange water into it and froze a bunch. The kids loved watching their water turn orange.

Someone also had brought a black cat pinata. AWESOME! I LOVE pinatas. It was hilarious to watch the kids "tap" the pinata.

The adults had to help a bit to get that thing cracked open.

Lastly we watched The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown with whoever was left over.

I had so many more plans of things to do but I am just starting out with all this and since I make most things being poor and cheap and being only one person, I can only do so much each year. This year was WAY more exciting than last year and I can only guess next year will be even better.

Halloween Treats

Sometimes I like to put my sewing down and venture into the kitchen, although that is rare. A few years ago I got the cooking bug and made every single recipe that I could find. Some turned out great, like what's below, and some turned out super nasty, like the pumpkin soup I made. So gross!

skeleton cookies:make a gingerbread man and pipe on his bones. Fun for kids to help

Spider Sandwiches: These were so yummy. There are ham and cheese inside them. And butter I think. Breadsticks for the legs and biscuits for the body. My girls refused to eat them but had a blast helping to put them together.
