Carrie Richards Poet Epulaeryu

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
