This past weekend we hosted our Fifth Annual Halloween Horrorfest so I decided to throw down on the tricky treats spread again, but this time actually TAKE PHOTOS of the gross-looking/good-tasting food we made before our guests completely decimated the blood-curdling buffet. I used the original line-up from a couple of years ago as my guide, but added a few new gruesome characters to liven things up a bit. I left the naming rights to Micky this year, and some of the place cards definitely got a chuckle out of our friends. Feast your eyeballs!
Braaaaains!
(cheese ball "brain" with Triscuits and Wheat Thins)
Chips & Barf
(little jack-o-lantern spewing forth guacamole with tortilla chips)
Human Vegetables
(the usual suspects: carrots, celery, broccoli, ranch dip and hummus)
Disembodied Mouths
(apple slices, caramel spread, and mini marshmallow "teeth")
Kitty Litter Cake
(yellow cake, chocolate frosting, crumbled Golden Oreos and Tootsie Roll "cat turds")
[Inspired by this recipe.]
Baby Fingers
(Lit'l Smokies wrapped up in crescent roll dough with sliced almond "fingernails" plus ketchup and mustard)
Crapple Sin-amon Muffins

Wishing you all a devilishly delicious Halloween this year!
