More Halloween suppers

The kids have really enjoyed the anticipation of their daily Halloween dinners.

I made these milkshakes for the kids' snack when they got home from school on Wednesday.  I used Orange Sherbet and milk for the shakes and "painted" the faces on the inside using melted chocolate.  It wasn't as orange as I hoped, but they enjoyed them anyway.

 This was Wednesday night's meal:

This was the dip made out of Ranch dressing and Catalina Dressing.

I also found this Kabocha squash from the Farmer's Market.  (I first tried it on Monday during the cooking class.)  

I love the orange color!  I made it the same way I was shown before, except I cooked mine a tad bit too long.  It was tasty anyway.  



...and the roasted seeds were tasty.  I knew when they were done because they popped like popcorn in the oven.  The kids loved watching the seeds "jump around." 

We had this "mummy" last night.  The recipe was really tasty, too - garlic and herb cream cheese, chicken breast and ham slices, provolone and American cheese slices, and a red pepper at the top.  

And, my first attempt at making bunnies out of apple slices.  The boys called them bats in keeping with the Halloween theme.  

After they saw the mummy, they were excited and I was able to witness a breakdancing routine.
