Muffin Tin Monday: Halloween
JediBoy woke during the night last night, long enough to listen to all of Jim Weiss’s King Arthur and Patrick Stewart’s Peter and the Wolf, so once he got back to sleep today he slept until a few minutes after ten. That scooted all our meals off by a bit, so instead of our muffin tin as mid-morning snack, we’ve just finished it mid-afternoon. This week’s Muffin Tin Monday theme is Halloween, and I’m definitely going to use several of the great Halloween food ideas I’ve seen in other tins.
We decided to make a witch for our muffin tin:
The witch’s hair is spaghetti dyed green (I thought I had spinach pasta, but we were out), her eyes are carrot chunks with cream cheese and olive slices, her nose is a chunk of green pepper, her mouth is an apple slice with a section cut out and sliced almonds for teeth, and her fingers are pieces of string cheese with “knuckle lines” cut out and green pepper fingernails.
Each of my kids had their own witch plate, and (as usual!) I ate the leftovers on another plate.
