6th Annual Pumpkin Carving Party...the food.

Well, as many of you know, I have a pumpkin carving party every year. It's a great tradition and one of my fave parties of the year. I didn't photograph all of the food this year, but I did photograph some of it....so here goes -

Pumpkin shaped Peanut Butter cookies and Witches' Broomsticks


Bones....


Fruit and Finger Cheese


Brain MiniCupcakes


Pumpkin Shaped Cheeseball


Spiderweb 7 layer dip


We had a great time....the weeone as a vampire -


Pony's sweet girl chewing on my beer... =)


The kids with the pumpkins -

Is that a real fly on the bones?!?

How did you make the brain cupcakes?

Looks like a good time!

Yes, that is a real fly. Gross, but it's life. The brains are mini cupcakes with icing piped in that pattern....

Looks like a great time was had by all Terri. Although the next to last picture isn't showing in the post. (Pony's sweet girl?)

Well, darn. I attached them all the same way. They're on flicker...perhaps a glitch and if you reload it works?

I thought it was or you have a great source for fake flies . You did a great job on the cupcakes. From the pictures it almost looked like jelly beans and icing mixed. What a great tradition you have. Your daughter must have some great memories.

There is an error where the pic would be saying "The Photo is Currently Unavailable". And the word Flickr is in the lower right corner of the space where the pic would be too. Reloading/refreshing doesn't seem to be helping.

I Love the bones - what is on the end of the pretzels to get the shape?

My whole body aches. It was such fun and included a silly string fight where we flew through a case of silly string in about 5 minutes!!! Now, I can't feel my legs they're so sore!!! I feel really really really old tonight!
