Don't get caught with a short supply of party favors. Make a few extras for unexpected visitors.

on 7/29/2006 Buy a box of disposable plastic (Saran wrap type) gloves. Fill each glove with popcorn and candy corn, tie at top. You can add black fingernails to each finger with nail polish or black tape.

on 11/22/2005 Make a basic sugar or shortbread cookie recipe and shape 1 1/2 Tbsp. of dough into finger shapes.For the end of the fingers, put an indentation with red jam or jelly (For blood)and use a whole
almond,pointed side out, for the fingernail.Score the dough with lines
to create wrinkles.
You can do this same savory recipe with
pizza dough,red sauce, dill weed and kosher salt for hairy fingers.

on 11/22/2005 You can fill non-powdered latex gloves with water, secure the wrist and freeze them to have eerie ice hands floating in the punch bowl. These take a few days to freeze fully, so don't wait until the last minute. You can get creative with other ice shapes, or freeze plastic spiders etc. into an ice ring made in a bundt pan. I serve my punch in a plastic cauldron.

on 11/22/2005 1.Buy a bag of lollipops (Blow Pops work well), a box of white kleenex, string, and a black marker. 2. Wrap one piece of tissue over each lollipop and tie with a string, letting some tissue hang down. 3. Make a ghoulish face to characterize each lollipop!
