It’s so much more than a dance.  However you do that dance!!

At least this guy does the Mashed Potato well!!

~~~~

Polar Bear

~ Mashed Potatoes ~ Olives ~

Did you know that you can totally mold mashed potatoes when they cool a little bit?  Well, you can! Just mold the cooled mashed potatoes into a bear face and use half of an olive for the nose and slices of olive for the eyes.

My friend Jen, over at Lipstick and Laundry, came up with a sweet acorn treat.

~~~~

Acorn Love

~ Hershey Kisses ~ Mini Nilla Wafers ~ Frosting ~

Put a small amount of frosting on the bottom of the Nilla Wafer, place the bottom of the Hershey Kiss to the frosting and add a dab of frosting to the top.

Super easy and adorable!!

The Witch Hats were from a good witch but this is the bad witch!!

~~~~

Ugly Witch

~ Bread ~ Apple Butter ~ Cream Cheese ~
~ Choc Chips ~ Food Coloring ~

Cut a heart shape out of a slice of bread or a sandwich and spread green tinted cream cheese on it.  Take another sandwich, or slice of bread, and cut out the hat and nose, as shown:

Spread apple butter on the hat and cover the nose with the green tinted cream cheese. Put it all together as shown in the pic above.  Use regular choc chips for the eyes and miniature choc chips for the wart and mouth.

Can’t you hear her laugh?

EEEEEeeeeeeee Hheeeeee Hheeeee

It’s that wonderful time of year when the weather gets cooler, leaves start changing color, and these little guys are all over the ground.

ACORNS

~ Bread ~ Peanut Butter ~ Raisins ~ Cereal ~ Graham Craker ~

Cut a heart out of a piece of bread or a sandwich.  Spread peanut butter on top of the heart shape.  Use chocolate cereal for the top of the acorn.  I really wanted to use Apple Butter for the top of the acorn, to go along with the fall theme, but didn’t have any.  Oh well.  Use raisins for the eyes and mouth.  Break a small piece off of a graham cracker and use for the stem.

These cute acorns won’t last very long on the ground!!

Crocodile

~ Bread ~ Cream Cheese ~ Cucumbers ~

The crocodile was made of wholemeal bread with cream cheese spread and cucumber slices.  The eye was quite obvious, made up of a half piece cucumber and the pointed teeth were also of cut cucumber.

Dem bones, dem bones are gonna walk around…

Skulls and Bones

~ Pillsbury Dough ~ Raisins ~

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Use a can of Pillsbury Crescent Creations (dough without the seams). Roll the dough out and cut it in half.  Set half of it aside.  Cut one half of it into strips for the bones.  Next make slits in the top and bottom of the strips. Fold the center in together to make the bone thicker and roll the ends in as shown:

Place the ‘bones’ on a pizza stone or cookie sheet and set aside.

Take the other half of the dough and cut it into thirds.  Roll each section up into a ball and then pat out flat for the head.  Take a knife and cut an X for each eye and a slit for the mouth as shown:

Put a raisin in the eye sockets and 2 raisins in the mouth to keep them open while cooking. I initially did this for that reason, but ended up leaving them in.

Brush them with melted butter and then sprinkle them with whatever you want!! I used garlic powder and parmesan cheese. Put them in the oven about 15 min or until golden brown.

 I served them with Lasagna for dinner!
The family LOVED it!!

I like how the parmesan gave the bones a “dirty” look, like they were just unearthed!!

Sushi is a big hit!!

Summer has submitted her first Nummie!!!

~~~~

Pinwheel Sushi

~ Tortilla ~ Turkey ~ Cheese Stick ~
~ Lettuce ~ Tomato ~ Ranch ~

Layer all the ingredients on a tortilla.  Use ranch to hold it all together (and for taste) and roll it up as tightly as you can.  Cut as thin or as thick as you like. 

~~

PBB & Nutella Sushi

~ Bread ~ Peanut Butter ~ Banana ~ Nutella ~

Mmmm…this sounds so yummy!!!

Take a rolling pin to a slice of bread and flatten as much as you can.  Smear peanut butter and nutella on the flattened bread.  Cut up your banana and put as much as you want on.  Roll it up tightly. Cut as thin or as thick as you like.
Enjoy!!

{ Thank you Summer for the wonderful ideas!!! }

FISH

~ Sandwich ~ Fruit Snacks ~

Make any sandwich you want and cut a circle out of it.  Use a cookie cutter, can, cup, lid, whatever you have to cut out the circle.  Next open up a pack of fruit snacks and decorate away!! I cut a tiny piece off of a fruit sncak for the eye.  You can use whatever you want to decorate your fish in many different ways.  Let me know what you come up with!!
