A Holiday Meal Menu...

Have you ever made a menu? I'm not talking about you deciding what's for dinner but an actual menu. Have you? Every year, especially Halloween I make a Holiday Menu, this not only gives my kids the chance to see what is in store for them but the neighbors as well. See, two years ago I moved to my little street and around Halloween everyone heard I ate brains and puss and kitty litter. No, I don't eat that! Not really anways, but those were the names I placed on the meals I served the kids on Halloween. I know you're thinking that's disgusting but what is that holiday? It's suppose to be fun, scary, gross and disgusting!

Okay, all you need to do is think that for Halloween and make a holiday menu. What will you serve up for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Can you think of some strange names that'll make your kids howl or laugh up a storm?


My Halloween Menu for 2005
Breakfast:
Brains & Puss

Lunch:
Eyeballs & squiggly worms
or
cooked cow & maggots

Dinner:
Worms in Blood Sauce

Dessert:
Turds in Kitty Litter

Yes, I know how this sounds but it is all fun and games, nothing is really disgusting but the names. The reality is:

Breakfast, we have scrambled eggs with a drop of red food coloring to make it look like brains. The puss is only oatmeal. For lunch we might have hamburger meat and rice, oh and of course it's colored a light yellow. Dinner is spaghetti and sauce and for dessert well I can't give you the family recipe but it is a candy (not poop) on top of grape nuts cereal. So, do you think you can make your own Halloween Menu? If you can send me the link and I'll post it here, or just drop it by in the comments section.

I can't wait to see what you scare up. Oh and once we get closer to Halloween I'll post this years Menu. :)

Intro on the Holiday Mom

I'm what you would call the Hoiday Mom, we celebrate everything, that means the Leprechaun comes to our house in March, Cupid strikes his arrow, the kids will get a gift on the 1st day of school, Halloween and of course Santa comes.

Every month has some holiday in it and I love teaching my kids that. Up until last year, we homeschooled our children and the teaching in me has yet to leave. Maybe here I can teach a few others about the holidays or some holiday fun, either way, always feel free to leave me comments and tell me about a holiday I may have forgotten. We do crafts, games and our meals are holiday themed.

I'm a military wife and a WAHM of three, oh and currently pregnant with number 4. I'm no longer a military wife as we got out in December 2007. But I am a wife and mother to four very active children.
