It looks wonderful, can I come lol

Fire Dancer and Crazy Train ~ lovely spreads ~ and I like the close ups.

Last year I did the vampires lair (and years prior always went all out) but always forgot to take a picture of the food prepared. Here's my vampire lair ...though sorry i didnt get any closeups. This year will do.

Food prepared ~
Halloweenies with mustard dip (wiener wraps, wrapped like mummys with mustard eyes)

Sloppy Jack-O-Pizzas (sloppy joe mix on english muffins, with cheese melted...jack o lantern smiles cut out)


(Recipes above ~ find at Pillsbury.com)

Theres one I love ...called scary skull cakes by pillsbury. Its basically cupcake in black wrapper, open one end of wrapper, insert marshmellow, now frost white. Insert black mints for eyes, upside down chocolate chip for nose, and sliced almonds arranged for teeth. Pretty cool. (couldnt find a pic available)

Coffin Brownies ~ bake brownies in pan, cut out in shapes of mini coffins. Pipe frosting in white along the edges, red dots at corners and write RIP in frosting on top.

Hey UK...We'll save you a rib!

Awesome Feast moonchildani!

Im doing Alice In Wonderland theme this year .... the only thing I found that helped in Tea Party ...being a scary Mad Hatter tea party
was a finger sandwich, cut coffin like with RIP on it ...and PB & jam being the filling.

Any ideas there ?

Below is collection of tea party stuff ~

I adore the vampire cupcakes. Are those oreo balls for the eyes? I would have never thought of that! Getting a little late to add to my menu though so I'll probably just keep these ideas for next year!

Love everybody's spreads. Wish I had enough people so that I can do something so wonderful as these!

Here's Halloween 2007:

and a close up of 2008:


Doing this makes me realize how repetitious this all looks!!

And I'm afraid the menu and decor are quite the same again this year. Oh well, too late to change now.

Great job!......what a dead-licious Halloween spread! I would'nt worry about the menu being repetitious, it can become the Traditional Halloween fare, much like turkey and pumkin pie at Thanksgiving. I would love it. H1

By the way.... Can you tell me----are those brownies or chocolate cake squares in the top pic?

I love the black cake plate in this pic ~ and agree with above ~ having the same fare gives guests somthing to look forward to each year ~

My usual party fare is spinach dip in a bread bowl. This year..since its a Mad tea party theme ~ Im gonna make mini bread bowls (bite size) and put spinach dip in each...and maybe something with a hat theme for mad hatter.

Your spread looks yummy and delightful!
