Spooky Dinner



Every year we have a "spooky" dinner.  We have always held it the night of Halloween, but this year we decided to try having it on a different night.  The kids have always loved this tradition.  I love how my husband really gets into it, too.  In past years he has been the genius behind the food, except for the homemade root beer (made with dry ice in our plastic cauldron), which is my job (recipe here).  This year I prepared it with the kiddos before he got home from work.  Mostly, we rename normal foods with gross names.  But we also have a few just-for-Halloween treats.  This year we debuted our new brain jell-o mold with mixed results.  We usually have spaghetti (calling it brains) but this year we had cheese fondue, (yuuuumm) one of my favorites.  My kids helped a lot and my son made this cute menu all on his own. 







We told them to act crazy for the following photos, but they didn't really need any encouragement-- they were so excited.
