Ghoulish Tasty Treats..

I know today is Halloween, but you still have time to ghoulishly cook up some fun with your little ghouls and goblins.
Go all out at every meal for a monstrous good time!!
Start your day with ghost shaped pancakes with raisin eyes and chocolate chip smile. Or pour pancake batter into long, thin lines and form the strips into spider webs.
A little imagination can transform ordinary food into ghoulishly, wacky faces or creepy bugs.
Slice a bell pepper length-wise to form the outline of a face. Sliced black olives double as eyes and a wedge of tomato as a mouth. Give the face a good shock of lettuce for hair, drizzle with salad dressing and let the screams of delight begin.
Turn black olives into spiders. A jumbo olive, sliced length-wise and placed cut side down becomes the body, with eight thin slices for the legs. Add a piece of pimento underneath for the hourglass.
Place sliced green olives with pimento atop deviled eggs. They'll look like eyes, giving the hard-cooked eggs added ghoulish personality.
Turn mounds of mashed potatoes into ghosts. All they need are black pepper eyes, or whole cloves.
Baby carrots become severed fingers with the addition of slivered almonds.
Pigs-in-a-blanket can become mummies by cutting the crescent rolls into long, thin srrips before wrapping the hot dogs or sausage. Two dots of mustard serve as eyes and a sliver of ketchup for the mouth.
Kids can dress up cookies and cupcakes with colored icing and use jelly beans, candy corn, black licorice, M&M's and or raisins, peanuts the sky's the limit for ingenious creations.
Ice cream cones are perfect hats for popcorn balls, rice cereal treats, cupcakes, you name it! After that, they just need chocolate chip eyes and licorice mouths.
Allow your imaginative ghoulish self to arise and have lots of fun!!
