Halloween '10: Treats

We went to a few to-dos this season. Here's what I contributed:


Decapitated bears for the Young Women. I spent more time on these than on the lesson. Oops.



Bananas and cream cake for the ward Trunk or Treat's Cake Walk.


And I think this was my favorite: melon brain. I thought of the sign at the last minute and Ted quickly whipped up the sign on some cardstock. Ten points if you know the reference.


Not pictured because I had way too many other things to think about were the yummy mummies. I wrapped two hot dogs in thin strips of pie dough and used two mustard-covered cloves for the eyes of the "Mummy & Daddy", then wrapped a ton of cocktail wienies as their mummy babies. Served with formaldehyde sauce (BBQ mixed with a little deli mustard). Cute. Tasty.

Oh, I want the points for Young Frankenstein. (What Knockers!)

I love how you carved the brain. I want to see how it would look if you let it cool overnight in the fridge in a bowl full of red jello so the brain guts and goo would be coming out of the cracks...

And we have a winner! Young Frankenstein it is. Ted and I quote that movie year-round.

Just wait for what I have in store next year....

MWAH-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!!!

Darn it, why didn't I see this post sooner! Mel Brooks is/was a genius. And Young Frankenstein is one of my all-time favs.

The Cooling Rack

Baked goods are only half the story...
