      Yield: 24 Servings
 
  12    oz      Can frozen orange juice
                - concentrate
  12    oz      Bottle white grape juice
  2     L       7-Up
  1     pt      Lemon or lime sherbet
                Green food coloring

  Mix together orange juice concentrate, white grape juice, 7-Up,
  lemon or lime sherbet, and several drops of green food coloring.
  If desired, serve with large, buoyant, and well-washed plastic
  spiders on the top!
  
  Here are some other good ideas from the book which you could also
  use as a contest or conversation starter.  (My idea)

  1. Turn sandwiches into jack-o'lanterns! Cut eyes, nose, and mouth
     into the top layer of bread and let the top layer (preferably
     much darker--or much lighter--than the bread show through.

  2. Make edible spiders for Halloween treats: a prune for the body,
     licorice slivers or stick pretzels for the legs, and two
     "red-hots" for the eyes.

  3. Turn apples into jack-o'-lanterns!  Using a sharp knife or
     razor, carefully cut portions of the skin away to make eyes,
     nose, and mouth.

     For a Halloween dessert, make an edible witch's hat using a
     large, flat, dark cookie for the brim and an ice-cream sugar
     cone for the crown. Fill the cone with ice cream even to the rim
     and center it on top of the cookie.

     To enhance the illusion, consider giving the top of the cookie,
     a thin layer of chocolate frosting.

  4. A plain sour-cream based chip or vegetable dip can quickly be
     transformed into a delightfully ghoulish Halloween dip by adding
     a few drops of green food coloring to the dip itself, and then
     scattering small bits of red and yellow bell pepper across the
     top.

  5. Serve fruit salad in a large, hollowed-out, and well-scrubbed
     pumpkin.  Or serve it in a small pumpkins: one for each diner.
     If desired, paint a jack-o'-lantern on the pumpkin shell.
