Halloween Bento Boxes...

Halloween came early for us this year as we couldn't have the party next weekend, we had great fun and I have a lot to share so I have broken it down into smaller posts.

I decided to make some bento's up for the kids, yeah, you know these are going to be good - the kids know me too well and were hesitant to open the boxes *evil cackle*

I had a big pile of card egg boxes which were perfect for the job, just needed a bit of personalization first. 

Dreadfully Delicious Delicacies

Heavenly nibbles from body parts, fresh from the house of Ebi

And inside, ohhh how yummy.... We have zombie toenails, giant cockroach eggs, severed fingers, freshly picked eyeballs, flayed skin, poached brains with fresh flesh and witches warts. Delicious no?

Some of the kids demolished the lot, Ebi-kun asked for a second bento! The darling Disney princess wouldn't eat anything until I told her what it really was, then she was perfectly happen to munch on delicate fingers! I think in this picture they were letting one of the older kids sample some of the delicacies first!

No doubt some people are the same and want to know what is included...

Severed Fingers - wiener sausages with onion nails and ketchup (tutorial HERE)

Witches Warts - Japanese pickles

Brains and fresh flesh - A type of jelly with jam (will post the recipe tomorrow)

Giant Cockroach Eggs - Black beans

Zombie Toenails - Burdock chips

Flayed Skin - Parma ham

Freshly Picked Eyeballs - Boiled Egg (Tutorial HERE)

Using the egg cartons turned out to be a great idea - easy to transport and no washing up! If you liked this post feel free to pin it or share it or both!

Quick and easy spooky healthy Halloween snacks....

Halloween is coming and as you know it is our favourite season! Now, I have to admit I have kinda fallen off the crafty wagon the last couple of months but I know with all the spooky inspiration that is coming I will soon back back up and running!

This is an oldie but a goodie and fun for little ones too, it would be a good activity to keep them busy as you are cooking dinner!

What you need:

Sharpies...

Stickers...

Fruit...

And a mat to work on is a good idea too! Simple draw eyes on the stickers then stick them on the fruit to make spooky faces. You could use googlie eyes but if you want to stretch the time out a bit the draw the eyes instead. You could get really fancy and add other facial features too.

I have seen faces drawn directly onto the fruit but personally, I don't want to eat anything that might have seeped through the skin!
