Hmm, can you make fondue with leftover Halloween candy?  I'm envisioning melting the chocolate and dipping the rest - chocolate covered candy corn?  Would it work or be a mess with the melty/unmelty chocolate.  Might have to try that one with the Things.  Thing 1 is going to Bingo at school with DH, maybe Thing 2 and I will do it - he's my junkfood junkie anyway, Thing 1 eats much more healthy.

I was all set to make The Scorpio - a sloe gin drink this evening -I even remembered to get the ginger ale.  However, a second (or third) glance at the cocktail recipe made me realize I had missed the bit about the grated peeled fresh ginger.  Knowing the potency of fresh ginger, I couldn't bring myself to make it without it.  (Man am I going to be disappointed if when I finally make this drink I hate it!).  So I settled on making something with the Hpnotiq that I convinced DH to buy me on a trip to the liqour store downtown.  The result was a Hpnot-tini.  Pretty good inspite of the fact that I generally don't care for pineapple-tinged drinks.  I took a photo with my phone, as soon as I locate the USB connector cable, I'll post but for now, picture muddied Windex in a cute cocktail glass (missing the slice of lemon as we were out).

Here's the whole gang, Count Dooku and Asajj Ventress in back and a Clone Trooper and Qui-Gon Jinn in front.  Fun times for all.  The boys loved having me as Ventress (evil doer in Star Wars the Clone Wars) and Thing 2 especially loved my long (false) glittery eyelashes. "How'd you make them glittery?"
