It's mostly excitement, but I'm also a bit nervous about everything I still have to do—like pick a costume, carve my pumpkin, and decorate the outside of the house. (Mom already took care of the inside.) So today, I'm knocking off at least one of the items on my very big To Do list.
Every year, I give my fellow classmates a Halloween-inspired treat. One time, I put candy in latex gloves for a creepy "grab bag" <grin>, and my mom made caramel popcorn balls once. But last year, I made these Lollipop ghosts—and they were a big hit. So I'm making them again...Mom says she's relieved because it's not quite as much candy.
Spooktacular, right? And who doesn't love a Tootsie Pop? Make your own by scrolling through the pictures below to see how they're done. All you need is tissue, ribbon, a black felt marker, and Tootsie Pops (or another kind of lollipop with a similar shape).
I know my class mates are going to love them. I might even make some for my parents to hand out when people come trick-or-treating at our door. Not that I'll be there...I have some trick-or-treat plans of my own!
Gotta jet! See you tomorrow...right?
