The girls had their third annual Halloween party with our original playgroup. We were asked to bring a dish or treats for the little ones. I was very apprehensive about making anything for fear that I would muddle it up. Then I seized the opportunity to make something fun. I combed the Spooky Halloween cookbook I have and many on-line recipes and finally made up my mind that I would try something original; Create my own Halloween treat. For me, being original is a big deal. Just about everything I do is because I have picked it up from someone else. I have a tendency to even pick up mannerisms and behaviors from other people very easily. I must say creating something original gave me such an extraordinary feeling. I have reached my zenith, had my creative climax and now I shall wait for the next Halloween party to see if I can recreate my original idea, only this time I shall learn from my mistakes.
The photos below depict what I came up with, after a comedy of errors. It is the first edible I have created without a recipe, photograph or other cookery source. The best part is that I received heaps of positive feedback, which makes me all the more eager for my next feat.
The sky is the limit from here ladies, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentines Day and the like, there will be no holiday too daunting for my creative genius….Like I have said before it is “the little things in life”.
