Ghoul Food

Mummy dogs and maggot stew Fire ants on logs A jack 'o' lantern fruit cup Nuclear waste punch A child's big grin!! Translation: Weiner wrapped in strips of crescent rolls....baked Any homemade stew with Orzo pasta added Celery sticks...stuffed with peanut butter...dried cranberries poked on top Hollowed out orange, filled with fruit cocktail...Jack's face drawn on peel with marking pen Mountain dew, mixed with lemonade....topped with lime sherbet
