Need some help with Halloween food!

At the end of this month, it’s my birthday and every year I organise a party to celebrate it. I know it is a bit lame to organise your own birthday party but I want to enjoy my birthday, so there! 🙂

Anyway this year, I am planning a Halloween theme party and I have already invited around 20 of my friends.

Halloween is not as big in Australia as it is in US or Europe. Only recently, some shops have started to sell Halloween customs and decorations.

We went shopping yesterday so we have bought our costumes and decorations. AS is going to be Count Dracula and I am going to be Devil Woman. We bought a few skulls, bats, some wall decorators, a big skeleton, some eye and witch shaped chocolates, Halloween themed table cloth, plates and napkins.

I think I won’t be able to buy any Halloween food as I didn’t see any in the shops yet. So I was thinking I should make some myself but I am not sure what kind of food is served in Halloween. I have Googled for some answers but most of the recipes seem too complex. If anyone has any easy recipes, please let me know. Need help real bad!!!!

In every person a child is hidden that wants to play!!!

Yesterday we were invited to my cousin’s (K’s) place for dinner along with some other friends. One of the friends got my nephew an Angry Bird Game and we bought him some play dough.

Once we were settled, the boys helped my nephew to open his gifts. My nephew loves to play Angry Bird on mobile phones so one of my friends opened the game to show the little guy how to play the real game But I think he enjoyed it  so much while giving the demo, that he kept on playing. Then it was AS and my brother who joined him and I followed. 🙂

It was really fun. I guess we were having more fun than my little nephew. I think he got bored quickly after we finished our game and he started making a train with the birds and piggies soon after.

That was just the beginning of our “Play kid” day. I thought I will show my nephew some play dough trick as he watches “Mr. Maker” all the time. But at the end of the night, it was us who had more fun with the dough than the kid. My friend taught me how to make an elephant, and I made the head of dinosaurs, and some Angry Birds. My friends were also making ice cream, flower, flag, and anything they could think of.

 I guess we are never too old to play Angry Bird and Play dough. There is still a child in every person that wants to play.
