Ten Fun and Creepy Halloween Party Snacks

!±8± Ten Fun and Creepy Halloween Party Snacks

It doesn't matter if you have a big family or if you're on your own... Halloween is one of the most fun holidays ever invented. But if you are a busy mom (and your house is the one house on the block where everyone goes for Halloween parties) you may be looking for some quick and easy Halloween party snacks to have ready for kids, visitors, guests, and freeloading adult friends during the Halloween season.

Looking for some new ideas for festive snacks that don't take a hundred years (or work your fingers to the bone) to put together? The ten Halloween party snack ideas below are lots of fun, simple to make... and some of them are even healthy!

1. Rotting Eyes and Severed Fingers

This is a very healthy but rather creepy Halloween party snack that makes good use of black olives and baby carrots. Arrange the black olives and baby carrots on a party tray with a bowl of your favorite dip (I like a cream cheese veggie dip). Inform your party guests that the tray is filled with rotting black eyes and severed fingers. And then watch this snack disappear. A good way to get your kids excited about veggies!

2. Jack o' Lantern Oranges

This healthy treat is so easy to make, and looks so pretty! Carve jack-o'-lantern faces into oranges and place on a platter. The kids will love it. And they can help, too, without ever having to pick up a knife. Have them simply draw the faces on with a black marker, and carve them yourself. Or don't worry about carving them-- they look just as good with faces drawn on.

As a variation of this fun Halloween party snack, I like to hollow out an orange with a Jack o' Lantern face and fill it with fruit salad. Healthy, easy and quick!

3. Easy Bugs in the Bone Yard

This is such a fun Halloween snack for the kiddos. All you have to do? Sprinkle raisins into a bowl full of white-chocolate covered pretzels. (You could also use chocolate covered raisins.) Kids will eat them up once they learn the name of this snack. Or they'd eat it up anyway, since this mix tastes divine.

4. Slimy Halloween Jigglers

You know those Jello jiggler molds? They work great for Halloween! Either use whatever you have lying around the house, or go out and pick up a brain or a heart-shaped Jello mold. Make up a batch of orange, black, purple, or flesh-colored Jello and pour into your mold(s). Or make a flat pan of Jello and cut out shapes with Halloween cookie cutters instead.

5. Ghost Cereal Bars

Prepare a batch of the Rice Krispies marshmallow treats recipe on the back of the cereal box. When the mixture has set up, cut out shapes with ghost shaped cookie cutter. Pour warm white frosting or melted white chocolate over the shapes to cover. Add M&M eyes and mouth. A delicious and easy Halloween party snack.

6. Green Gelatin Intestines

This is one of the grosser looking Halloween party snacks. Make lime gelatin and add pineapple bits, chopped marshmallows, sliced bananas and mandarin oranges. Pour gelatin mixture into an angel food cake pan and let set up. Invert pan to remove gelatin mold. Slice the mold horizontally into about 5 layers. Slice the layers in half and arrange on a platter in semi-circles to look like intestines. Gross!

7. Spooky Healthy Eyeballs

This Halloween party snack is both easy and healthy. Wash a bunch of green grapes. Insert a raisin into the stem end of the grapes and freeze them all until ready to serve.

8. Monster Crackers

Color some white vegetable spread or cream cheese with green food coloring and spread on your favorite crackers. Arrange small bits of green and red bell peppers to make a green-eyed, red-mouthed cracker monster. Use small amounts of broccoli sprouts to make the monster hair. A sneaky way to get kids eating their veggies.

9. Wormy Halloween Punch Recipe

No respectable Halloween party snack list would do with out having this squeamish punch. Just make green Kool-Aid and put in a clear glass punch bowl. Set the punch bowl on top of a glow necklace so the light shines through the punch bowl. Add some gummy worms and watch the kids squirm when they see it.

10. Vampire Blood

You use V8 juice for this one so it is healthier than the wormy punch above. Pour the V8 juice in a clear picture that you have labeled as "Vampire Blood." For an adult party, add the ingredients for a bloody Mary, if you like. For a kids' party, well... good luck getting them to try it. It is V8, after all!

Crystal's altogether at The Melting Pot

Yay it's Crystal's birthday! Where's the most fun place to go? The Melting Pot! The experience is worth the price. :D Well I think so anyway. haha. [SORRY I RECORDED THIS ON MY PHONE and didn't know which way to record it so you might have to tilt your head to the left! lol] This is a video of my favorite course during our four course meal.... dessert (chocolate fondue)! The pot on the left was called the flaming turtle. (they light it on fire) I think it consisted of milk chocolate swirled together with caramel and topped with crushed pecans. The pot on the right was called cookies n' creme and consisted of milk chocolate swirled together with a marshmallow creme topped with oreo crumbs. (it was also lit on fire :D) After they light it on fire to melt and heat everything together they give you delicous dippers such as: strawberries, bananas, pineapple, rice krispies, brownies, marshmallows dipped in oreo crumbs or graham crackers, and pound cake. Also it comes with cheesecake, but you can't dip that because it would fall apart. (so you just drizzle the chocolate on it) I love the melting pot. It's so yummy and fun!

ninjagoLEGO cake

This is a ninjago LEGO cake I did for a 5 year olds birthday. I had no idea who ninjago was so I had to do quite a bit of research when I came across the picture I include in the video, I knew I wanted to make an actual standing ninja. So I ran it by my client who was thrilled. Overall I am happy with the way it came out especially since this was my very first attempt at making a standing person from cake or RKT (rice krispies treats). I had sooo much fun but it took me alot longer than I could have possibly imagined. It took a total of about 3 days. On the last day I worked from 7 am to 11 pm on the cake but it was worth it. The cake is just a vanilla cake. The rice krispies were made from french vanilla and regular vanilla marshmallows which is why some are yellow. again, overall I am happy and I hope you guys like it. Please rate, COMMENT and let me know what you guys think and subscribe :0)

Diabetic Cookies - Healthy Yet Delicious Dessert Tips For Diabetes Sufferers

!±8± Diabetic Cookies - Healthy Yet Delicious Dessert Tips For Diabetes Sufferers

People used to think that being diagnosed with diabetes meant they would have to cut all their favorite foods out of their life. There would be no more cakes, chocolate, sumptuous desserts, ice creams or cookies. Doctors now understand the disease much better and there has been a lot of diabetes research done. Diabetic patients are now able to enjoy desserts made with a very small amount of sugar. There are many diabetic cookbooks available these days, containing many dessert recipes which contain either a small amount of sugar or a sugar substitute. Diabetic patients can enjoy making and eating these dishes without feeling guilty about ignoring their doctor's advice or taking the risk of making their disease worse.

Just about everybody loves cookies, so why should a diabetic miss out on such good eating? You can make diabetic cookies with a small amount of sugar, brown sugar or a sugar substitute. There are plenty of websites with diabetic-friendly cookie recipes, as well as many cookbooks. Examples of what you can make include rice krispie cookies, high fiber cookies, peanut cookies, soft cookies, marshmallow cookies, sugar-free cookies, almond cookies and there are literally hundreds of other kinds too. With a bit of imagination, you can alter them to your match your personal tastes exactly and have fun experimenting with spices and flavors.

Nearly all the diabetic cookie recipes you will find on the internet are completely free. Expert dieticians who understand diabetes well have put these recipes together to make them healthy, delicious and diabetes-friendly. The recipes tell you how many calories there are per cookie and how much sugar. Many of the recipes are high in fiber as well as being low in sugar. People who have tasted such cookies will gladly confirm that there is no compromise on taste. They do not taste much different to traditional cookies which are usually very high in both sugar and calories.

Doctors treating diabetic patients do not recommend cutting sugar completely out of your diet any more. Rather, they advise that a controlled diet plan is followed and low sugar or sugar-free desserts should be eaten in small quantities. If you need to stick to your diet but have a sweet tooth and fancy something delicious, these special recipes are ideal to satisfy your craving without ruining your special diet and guarantee to contain only the permissible levels of sugar allowed or less.

Easy Valentine Treats to Take to School

!±8± Easy Valentine Treats to Take to School

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, considering making some easy Valentine's snacks that the little ones can bring to school? Whether you are preparing them for your own child's lunch or as a special treat for the class, here are some snacks that are easy to transport and easy for the little ones to devour once they dig in!

Marshmallow-Popcorn Hearts are a simple alternative to popcorn balls. With this recipe, you can skip the Karo syrup and just melt some marshmallows instead! This quick and easy recipe works just like Rice Krispie bars, only with popcorn instead!

Here's what you need to get started:

o 10 cups popped popcorn
o 3 tablespoons margarine or butter
o 1 10-ounce package regular marshmallows
o Red food coloring
o Red colored sugar

Directions

o Put the popped corn (minus the unpopped kernels) into a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking pan and keep it warm in your 300 degree oven.
o Melt the butter/margarine and marshmallows in a large kettle or in the microwave. (Microwave: 1 ½ to 2 minutes, stirring once) Stir the mixture until it is smooth, no lumps, and then add the red food coloring.
o Stir in the popped popcorn- about half at a time.
o Wait 10 minutes or so until it is cool enough to handle.
o Grease individual heart shaped pans with butter.
o Press the popcorn mixture into the greased pans.
o Cool the popcorn hearts. Remove from pans. Sprinkle each with red colored sugar.
o Wrap each individually in plastic wrap- pink or red finishes it off nicely.
o Makes 9 hearts.

This one is a little messy, but for an extra-special treat, exceptions can be made to almost any rule. Take along a pre-packaged wet napkin in a zippered plastic bag to assist in quick clean-up.

Candy Apple or Caramel Apple Valentines

1 bag of caramels
1 pack of craft sticks (like popsicle sticks)
1 bag of apples or your choice
wax paper
cake decorating tool
Flavored icing

Melt the caramels or hard candy according to the package directions. Insert a craft stick into one end of each apple. Dip the apple into the melted caramel, covering it completely. Lift the apple and let it drip for a few seconds and then set it on the wax paper until completely set- about two hours) Use your cake decorating tool (or a plastic bag with a hole in the corner and a decorating tip) to write a nice message on each apple. Wrap in plastic wrap and secure the wrap at the top of the apple with a rubber band, leaving the stick exposed as a handle.

Finally, you can mix up these peppermint stars from a quick meringue batter. They make a tasty little treat that travels well in a lunch.

Peppermint Stars
Makes: 45 cookies
Prep: 30 minutes
Bake: 15 minutes

Ingredients
o 2 egg whites
o 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
o 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
o 1/2 cup sugar
o 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
o Red food coloring (optional)

Directions

1. Place egg whites in a medium mixing bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
2. Line two large cookie sheets with brown paper or foil; set aside.
3. Add vanilla and cream of tartar to egg whites. Beat with an electric mixer on medium to high speed until soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually add sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form (tips stand straight) and sugar dissolves. Quickly beat in peppermint extract. Tint pink with several drops of red food coloring, if desired.
4. Using a pastry tube with a large star decorating tip, pipe cookies onto prepared cookie sheets (form cookies about 1-1/2 inches in diameter). Bake in a 300 degree F oven for 15 minutes. Turn off oven and let cookies dry in oven with door closed about 30 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets. Cover and store in a dry place. Makes 45 cookies.

Your kids will be delighted when you take the time to make these special Valentine's Day snacks for their lunches. After all, special surprises from those who loves us most are what Valentine's Day is all about!
