Halloween Party!

eshaufle

So my roommates and I are having a Halloween party and we wanted to make a Halloween-ish cocktail of some sorts (if it can serve groups well, even better!!) and some sort of creepy/cool snack.

We've looked online but I'd love to hear if anyone has any favorites!!

I love Halloween :-)

You could do Sangria because its kind of blood-looking, and freeze some eyeballs or plastic spiders in ice cubes.

I've always seen the spider cupcakes.  I'm pretty boring though, as my halloween baking stops at halloween funfetti cookies.

Salt didn't you wear your costume this past weekend?  How did it all come together?  (Sorry for the threadjack OP)

<div>I did! It was great. I didn't get a lot of pictures though and expect to have more this weekend after the party we go to on Saturday. Here's one of H and I though. </div><div>

I hope you're having more than one snack.

Check out Martha Stewart, Better Homes & Gardens, the Hostess Blog, etc. They all have a plethora of Halloween ideas right now.

Haha- It's looks awesome from what I can see in the picture.  Glad it all came together for you.

I love the cake eyeball ideas!  I've actually made them before but it never even occurred to me to turn them into eyeballs...genius.

I mean we're definitely ordering pizza and having the usual drunken snacks but we thought we needed at least one Halloween-themed item :-)

We actually did toy around with the Sangria idea.  I love making Sangria too and I could definitely make it look creepy looking with the ice cubes (I actually saw finger shaped molds the other day...kinda gross but could be effective haha).
