Boo! 2014 快来装神弄鬼

Finding this year Halloween is on a Friday by the last week. Nothing better to trick-or-treat then follow with no school next day. We decide a quick play date with several families live close by. Consider a full day working schedule, I have to ensure the menu as simple as possible, but not to skip any spirit of the once-a-year big event for kiddos.
Here is my menu:

Trick-or-Treat (Full their bags for anyone Shorter than 3’)
 
一年一度装神弄鬼的好日子好容易遇上周末,不管时间如何吃紧,要快乐的心是不变的。
 

One of my inspirations this year. The bigger they grow into, their customs are getting the more apart from cuties, closer to zombies :(
各式收罗来的小东西摆将开来,就是值一笑。




All Sausages& Bacons – Intestines & Layers of Meat. My main dish this year. All many & different sausages & bacons. To all our males in house, this is all-you-can-eat not so healthy but exactly they like.
肥兹兹的大肉。做得简单,保温容易,老小都爱。不健康的东西就是不愁销。
 
 
 

One family bring in a chick. What can be better to decorate with an ugly chick head ~~~~~*_* ~~~~~~
有朋友要带只鸡来,那当然挑只最丑的断头鬼。可惜一群ABC,早见怪不怪,哄然就挑鸡肉分而食之,效果不如放去西人的餐桌来得惊人。
 
 
 

Very Cheesy Mac& Cheese – Very Sticky Brain
真的是诚意十足的芝士意粉,不过套上脑浆的隐喻,就让人Errr.....
 
 

Steamed Broccoli w/Fleur De Sel
只要品质好盐好,最简单也往往是出彩处。




 
Fruits in monster teething mouth bowl.  
本来有独特构思的水果拼,时间紧大家胃也有限,就顺水推舟从简吧。
 
 

Sweet on top of more sweets. The cookies taste pretty yum!  
甜得腻人,却也要摆摆应景。我们是烛光的聚会,人齐了全关上灯后,这缠绕的小灯炮就显得别致些。
 
 

 
My voodoo punch. Very bloody, very "poisoned", sold in no time.
我的巫毒汤。还泡了毒果子,热销啊。
 
 

Can you see the spirit is everywhere? Even on wines.
这样的时节,口味顾不得试明白(不过品来是一般般),就看上这瓶子的气氛啊
 
 
 

Melting Chocolate Cake w/Strawberry Ice Cream – Mixed Liquidly Blood. Good to welcome kiddos after a kind of chill trick-or-treat this year. This is the only one shows some Chocolate cake under, it is so fun to see them digging out hot liquidly Choco underneath and yeah...
 
小朋友们讨糖回来,颇有些秋凉了。新出炉的爆浆巧克力蛋糕盖上草莓冰淇淋(红梅的会更好效果,可惜有小孩子挑口味),不但是冰火两重天,还唤做红血遇黑血。重口味呵。
 
 
 

Snacks. They can never get too much treat in this evening.
小吃是多少要些来讨喜的。



My decision-maker on outfit this year. There are so many times I pick a dress right till the last minute to an event, even the Halloween this year: in the morning of the 31st, I decide to change all minds and work as a bling bling witch, with 3 feet long hair (some pinky higglight), and a feathery witch hat, thanks to this candle. Above all,  I know I will be accompanied with two monsters, two very scary monsters....
这是我今年的启迪:本已买好了要扮的行头,见了这罐蜡烛就换了主意,改做长发巫婆啦。
 
 

Given many many, still have many many....
今年糖备太多,送不完。




After all, my midnight treat with hubby. It's so fun to catch up with friends, and seeing kiddos growing up into charming young men all taller than us.
忙过了,累了,来杯咖啡,和他对坐。就是马卡龙我也没放过,称这一轮 “Spirit travel from Frence".
