How was your Halloween? I’d love to hear some of your costume ideas and what you did on this special occasion!
For my Friday, I hosted a Halloween Potluck at my house. I’m not usually a fan of potlucks, but for Halloween, I make an exception. I love to encourage people to use their noodle to come up with something creative, in this case, imagination with food.
Everyone had to bring a Halloween-themed food to the party. In the end, we had a lot of good food, and some too creepy to eat. Take a look!
First, drinks.
Here are the amazing appetizers:
And the delicious main courses:
^^^ Pumpkin fried in salty egg yolk (It’s a Chinese dish)
And no meal is complete without dessert, and we had plenty!
^^^ Jello ^^^
^^^ It’s red bean paste from Japan
^^^ My favorite item of the night because how cute are they!?!
After we filled our bellies, we watched Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter (oh, that’s how the Emancipation Proclamation came to be) and Hocus Pocus (classic). As you can tell, we weren’t scary movie people at all, rephrase, just the girls, including me. Best part, I have some leftovers in my fridge that I’m still eating. Yay!
What are some of the potluck items that catch your eye? What are some other food ideas I can use for next year?
Now it’s November, and I’m already thinking about Thanksgiving and Christmas. I love this season!

Wow, you guys really go big on these! This is giving me some ideas for our future Women’s Group activities, though!!!
I’m a total Halloween fanatic! I feel like it’s the one Fall holiday I can have friends over to celebrate and eat. Thanksgiving/Christmas are usually for family (at least in my case!). Perhaps you can do something fun with these food ideas for a Women’s Event!
