I know, I know. This is gnarly. Not even just gross, but gnarly<\/i>. Fun too though, right? Especially for the littles. I think the very first time I saw this was on Noble Pig<\/a>, and since then I’ve seen it all<\/a> over<\/a> the place<\/a>. My kids thought they were equal parts gross and amazing. <\/p>\n

There is so much Halloween insanity going on around here. Pumpkins galore, like whoa we have a lot of pumpkins to carve. Big ones, small ones, medium ones, white ones – even those neat bumpy ones (they’re called knuckleheads, for the record). There’s also a lot of costume preparation, though again, the littles want something specific they have seen and considering I left my sewing machine in Canada, I’m not really arguing with them about it. When I get my hands on a sewing machine though, watch out!<\/p>\n

In the meantime, I’m all about the festive food. This is not really a recipe, all you’re doing is dressing a graham cracker up like a band aid and you know, finishing it off with a little smear of blood. No biggie.<\/p>\n

Graham Cracker Band Aids<\/div>\n

-graham crackers
\n-cream cheese (or icing)
\n-seedless strawberry jam (or red decorator’s gel)<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

Just break the graham crackers along their ‘perforated edges’ (though really, do they ever break clean?!), use a knife to clean them up a bit. Then spread on a little cream cheese (or frosting) just in the middle. Try to level it out into nice little rectangles.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Now just add your little dollops of blood. I had seedless strawberry jam on hand and it’s yummy with cream cheese. The recipes that call for the decorator gel will work just as well though!<\/p>\n
