Halloween is a great time to host a kid’s party. After all, what child doesn’t like Halloween? One of the most enjoyable aspects of Halloween is the food. There are hundreds of recipes that have been specifically created for this spooky holiday. The following ideas will help you plan the yummiest menu possible.

Serve a minimum of sweet treats. You don’t want your guests suffering from ’sugar overload’ during the party. To celebrate the occasion, serve chicken fingers with a blood (any red dipping sauce.) If you prepare them from scratch, it’s not hard to make them resembling the more human variety. Add a sliced almond for the finger nail for a realistic approach.

Another dish to try is to add equal parts red, blue, and yellow food color to spaghetti after it’s been cooked so it turns an ugly brownish color. Serve with a green pesto sauce and call it snakes in the swamp.

Make goofy eyeball meatballs. Shape seasoned ground meat into an oval with a flat top and bottom, bake until done. Cut a round circle out of mozzarella cheese about the size of a half dollar or one inch in diameter. Cut grape tomatoes or cherry tomatoes into three slices. Cut black olives in half. Assemble the goofy eyeballs by placing a slice of cheese on the meatball, then a slice of tomato on the cheese and top with a black olive half. Vary the placement of the toppings so the eyeballs are looking in different directions.

If you will be serving punch, why not serve the ghoulish variety? Simply make your favorite punch and add a few ghoul hands. To make these hands, fill non-powdered rubber gloves with cranberry or other red juice. (Don’t overfill, the fingers of the glove should still move easily.)

Close gloves tightly with rubber bands and freeze flat on cookie sheets, which have been lined with paper towels. When ready to serve, open gloves with scissors and add to punch. You may want to break off one or two fingers and add them separately.

A fun punch can be with one quart of lime drink, one quart of lemon lime soda and one cup of lime sherbet. The sherbet should be added right before serving. Stir so the sherbet foams up a bit with the soda. Dust the foam lightly with cocoa powder to resemble dirt.

It’s not a good idea to use dry ice in your punch to make it smoke. Curious hands may try to touch the dry ice resulting in freezer burn. Instead place the dry ice in containers out of reach, such as the back of a table and you’ll still have the atmosphere of the smoky fog without the worry of accidents.

Keep the food simple and familiar but with a twist. Rename favorites in the Halloween theme. Use food coloring in blues, greens, and browns to alter the way a dish looks. Or use familiar food in unfamiliar ways. For example blanch a cauliflower head, break apart and then reassemble (this makes the cauliflower easier to serve) cover the cauliflower with ranch dressing then using ketchup in a squeeze bottle outline each floret with the ketchup so it looks like a brain.

(This is really a video to show you my colours and types, so if anyone has any requests, you know what colour and type of gloves I have, so you know what to ask for! I do have some yellow household ones as well but I couldn’t find them at the time I was making the video.) Well, I say my collection, I have forgotten a few pairs in this video, but I just show all the ones I could be bothered to find. When I have millions, I’ll show you them all in great detail ]]> http://www.bluerubbergloves.com/2010/08/31/my-glove-collection-to-date.html/feed 0 http://www.bluerubbergloves.com/2010/08/28/cooking-up-chemistry-in-the-kitchen.html http://www.bluerubbergloves.com/2010/08/28/cooking-up-chemistry-in-the-kitchen.html#comments Sun, 29 Aug 2010 00:21:59 +0000 Blue Rubber Gloves http://www.bluerubbergloves.com/?page_id=61

Hey kids, when most people hear the word “chemistry”, they think of creepy laboratories with bubbling beakers of toxic goo. But chemistry can happen any time two different things react together to make something new, and there are fun science experiments that you can do right in your kitchen!

Experiment 1: Magic Mud

All you need for this experiment is some cornstarch, water, and a little bit of food colouring to show it off.

Add 5 tablespoons of cornstarch to a bowl. Make sure you use something to scrape off the extra starch so you have a nice level spoonful.

Add 3 tablespoons of water to the bowl.

Add 3 drops of food colouring.

Stir the mixture.

This mixture should be hard to stir unless you stir very, very slowly.  If it seems runny, add a few pinches more cornstarch. If it seems really dry, add a bit more water.

Now try squeezing a little bit of your magic mud between your fingers and rolling it into a ball. Then open your hand and watch what happens. Poke the top of your magic mud quickly, and your finger will bounce off. But if you sink your finger in slowly, the mud will swallow it up!  It acts like a liquid and a solid!

For a real adventure, try using the same measurements (5 parts cornstarch, 3 parts water) to make up a really big batch in a large pan, or even a kids’ swimming pool!  If you run fast enough, you can actually run across the top of the magic mud. Just don’t slow down, or you’ll find yourself sinking into the goo!

Experiment 2: The Incredible Giant Hand

For this experiment, you will need baking soda, vinegar, and a rubber glove. If you don’t have one, you could use a balloon to make The Incredible Giant Head.

Use a marker to draw hair on the rubber glove (or a face on the balloon).

Carefully add a few spoonfulls of baking soda to the glove.

Pour some vinegar into the glove.

Tie the glove closed, like you would a balloon. Shake it around a bit.

Now watch what happens. The hand (or head) will grow!

When the solid baking soda and the liquid vinegar meet, they react to form a gas called carbon dioxide. They make so much of it that it will blow up your balloon for you.

Experiment 3: Acid or Alkali

For this experiment, you need some beetroot or red cabbage. It also provides you with a tasty snack.

Have an adult help you boil the cabbage or beetroot until the water changes colour.

Collect some of the coloured water.

Scientists use something called pH indicator to measure how acid or alkali something is. Different acids and alkalis will make the indicator change different colours.

You’ve just made pH indicator. Have an adult help you test small amounts of your coloured water with acids and alkalis around the house. Vinegar, juice, household cleaners, antacid tablets, and baking soda are good places to start. The more acidic something is, the lower the pH number. See if you can figure out the pH of your test subjects:

pH           Colour

2               red (very acidic)

4               purple

6               violet

8               blue

10             blue-green

12             yellow-green (very alkali)

And the best part about this experiment is that you can eat the vegetables you cooked! Now that’s fun science!

Now seeing these new videos you’ll either think I have tiny hands for my age, or that I just love tight gloves. Either of these theories are correct. These are my brand new blue gloves that are, indeed XS. But they fit great, more than great, and though I try to avoid the big trap of cliché, they are very like a second skin. Sometimes when wearing them I forget I am, because they are so nice. Then I look at my hands and wonder why they’ve gone blue I’m kidding. If you were wondering, these are the same gloves as featured as my channel background. ]]> http://www.bluerubbergloves.com/2010/08/24/blue-nitrile-gloves.html/feed 0
