BOO-linary Delights

I'm having a BLOWOUT online Halloween Party 
this year and you're all invited!


Here's what's on the menu so
dig in and enjoy!

First up -- spooky sushi!




But if you don't like fish, 
there's pizza!


And for all you vegetarians
there's candy corn on the cob 
(that's a banana in the middle) --


There will be an assortment of healthy dips too, 
if you don't mind moving the spider.


The dessert table is positively laden 
with yummy things, like Skelly Jelly!


Cheesecake, anyone?


And there's cupcakes galore!


Plus cookies, of course.


Mmmmm, I'm stuffed!
I barely have room left 
for a nice cup of coffee --


And the best thing about an online party is --
there's no calories!!!

I wonder that they used to make the pumpkin go pop? The sushi looks delightful.

Why this post reminded me of a more gruesome Halloween party when we were oh, so much younger, I don't know. Maybe it was all the food stuff.

There was a story told in the dark about a solo pilot who crashed his plane nearby...and the narrator would pass around various cooked or raw foods: peeled grapes, cooked spaghetti, chicken livers, un-popped popcorn kernels, ham bones, etc. to show what was left of the poor pilot to the horror of those listening to the tale.

Happy Halloween!

It wouldn't be a Halloween party without mice running all over the table.......

anne marie in philly said...

I'll take pizza and cuppycakes and cookies. and cheesecake and "corn on the cob".

the sushi looks cute, but I don't eat raw fish.

Suz said...

Skeleton and Gelatin? HILARIOUS!!
My favorite part is no calories.

Infidel753 said...

Are those demon mice on the cheesecake for HRH?

Bob said...

I don't know if this makes me hungry or nauseous?

Sixpence Notthewiser said...

Now I want dessert!
That skeleton in gelatin though....
Lmaoooo

Lots of cute ideas here - I will have to remember them for my next Halloween party. I especially love the sushi!! It is easy to make it vegan too.

Mike said...

That piece of pizza would never make it to the ouija board.

DVArtist said...

These are fantastic. Since candy corn is my all time favorite treat I really like the candy corn on the cob. Enjoy your day.

The Blog Fodder said...

These are awesome photos. I am sharing this on Facebook.

Moving with Mitchell said...

As alway, brilliant finds/selection! I wish I could find candy corn here. I'd be in the kitchen know cooking up some ears of corn. That is so much fun.

Marie Smith said...

The mice take the cake.

This N That said...

Fun party..Very creative items there..Cute cupcakes!! Eerie mice!!

Martha said...

I love these, so fun!

Leanna said...

These are so cute! I wish I had kids.
OMG!! What am I saying?!?

Guillaume said...

I'd love a real Halloween party. It's hard this year.

Lowcarb team member said...

Thank you for this fun post and party ๐ŸŽƒ

All the best Jan

bobbie said...

I'll be there!!

Parnassus said...

Hello Debra, Such clever ideas, all of these! In Cleveland I had an assortment of Halloween cookie cutters--skull, witch, rat, ghost, spider, etc.
--Jim
p.s. In Frank's story, what were the unpopped corn kernels supposed to represent? Or even popped ones, if that was a typo?

Tundra Bunny said...

Since this is a calorie free feast, I'll have the Ouija pizza and Gingerdead Men cookies!

I do wonder how many cat paws ended up in the pizza box though...hopefully, HRH and her cat coven have been out in the woods all day!

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Parnassus (Jim) -- My guess would be that the unpopped popcorn kernels would represent the teeth knocked out of his head, but I'll double-check that with Frank and report back!

Rosemary said...

Thanks - I love a party, and will there be games too.

Joanne Noragon said...

So glad I drink my coffee black. Just keep my voodoo doll.

Frank said...

We actually didn't use popcorn kernels, But I thought that they would make good teeth. I think jello was also one of the tactile body innards. Cow's tongue was on the list, but not readily available.

Parnassus said...

Hi Frank and Debra, Thanks for the info. I think I had heard an alternate version of this story, so I didn't pay attention to the "crash" part. --Jim

pam nash said...

Looks like you're set for the party. What time! Food looks too good - think I need to go fix my lunch.

Kirk said...

Oh, that slice of pizza should definitely be pointed to "yes"!

The Liberty Belle said...

I'll have an extra serving of that candy corn on the cob, thank you.

brewella deville said...

I really should make gingerbread before the holidays are over. Skeletons, turkeys, maybe Christmas trees before it's too late.

Martha said...

These are amazing! I'm just going to help myself to some cheesecake :)

The Captain said...

I love all this, the missus tends to do most of the Halloween stuff in our house since I'm usually working. If I'm about on the night I tend to be sat round the firepit toasting my family who have left us.

Liz Hinds said...

Some people have so much patience! For something that will disappear in one mouthful!!

Ur-spo said...

these are FABULOUS! I liked them all.

baili said...

oh dear never saw such spooky food
it may hurt my stomach lol

enjoy your Halloween enthusiasm my friend :)

e said...

These are such creative treats! The candy corn on the cob looks fantastic, even though candy corn isn't... delicious. The skeleton on gelatin is hilarious. Great selection, Debra!

yellowdoggranny said...

there is nothing you can do to sushi to make me eat it.

Rommy said...

I would say that Halloween sushi inspired me to seek some out, but really I don't need an excuse to enjoy sushi... or Halloween.

Fundy Blue said...

I loved this! Some people are amazingly creative!
