~ Have a Cookie...Cookie~
You heard of Dyed In The Wool...Well...basically the same...only with a cookie.
Use a food dye to change the cookie dough you have lovingly made.
Now if your making this from scratch...the best time to add the coloring is in the wet mixture.
When you combine the butter and sugar...that's the time to change the color of things.
Now just remember to add (Three Times) the color you think you might need.
Never fear...the dough will seem a tad darker then you think it should be,but,will lighten up considerably...when you add the dry mixture.
Chill the dough.
Roll out.
Cut with a double cookie cutter that has a skeleton design inside...You had to know that was coming.
Bake at the usuall temperature,cool,as you chill out completely enjoying your last dance.
With fine line tip frosting applicator...Now is the time to somewhat draw within the lines...connect those bones and...Wal Lah ! You have exposed the 'Skeletons In The Closet'
~ Last Dance ~
I like,Halloween it's Magic...You can play dress-up and be whomever you please...License to 'Party Hardy'...but just remember not to lose yours...and...Dead Drunks Don't Dance! Have fun and know that ,that mask comes off later... Booo!
In container,combine the basil and sugar,bruise with a wooden spoon.
Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine.
Serve well chilled with a hunk of dry ice...the vapor drifting out and over the sides...just to remind you of the wreck that you will avoid.
~ You Look Pale ~
Need a Transfusion?
Okay...here goes.
Puree the cherries and fruit cocktail...with their juices,in a blender,until nice and smooth.
Stir in the cranberry juice cocktail and chill.
You will need 3 Zipper-Lock plastic quart size freezer bags.
You will need 3 Twisted,or,Flexible Drinking Straws You will need 3 Shower Curtain Rings... you can replace them later...don't worry...no one will peek.
Punch a hole with a hole punch in the corner of one layer of the zip lock bag...just below the zipper.
Insert a twisted,or,flexible straw in the hole,and punch another hole in the same corner of the bag through both layers...just below the zipper.
Place the shower ring through that hole.
Repeat.
To serve...Pour 1 Cup of the cherry mixture into each bag,seal,hang by shower curtain rings on hooks.
Your guests can hold their drink by the ring and sip through the staw.
Now don't ya' feel better?
HAPPY,SAFE,FUNFILLED,HALLOWEEN
