Text only Okay, first the drinks. Easiest is to mix something yellow with something blue. Orange juice and Mountain Dew are good for the yellow, Great Bluedini kool-aid is good for the blue. You'll end up with a radioactive shade of green. If you're using a punch bowl, try this: Get some of those latex gloves, fill them with water or juice, freeze. Unmold carefully and float the disembodied hands in the punch bowl. Dry ice and back lighting is good for effect too |

--- -------PHYLLIS SLAIGHT VRGX61A------------------ A bunch of fun loving people In costumes My husband and I were invited to a costume Halloween Party at a neighbor's house. The hostess had informed us we would be bobbing. (Dunking) We assumed for apples. Well! She had rented a huge, plastic champaigne glass. (About 3 to 3 1/2 feet high) It was filled with what looked like water. Wrong! It was a gigantic Martini and we bobbed for the olives! It certainly was alot of laughs! We moved soon after and I understand this party has become an annual event. BTW, as I remember, it was necessary to refill this glass more than once! |

3 Tablespoons Cornstarch 1 Tablespoon Flour 3/4 cup Karo light corn syrup 1/4 cup water 1/4 teaspoon liquid food coloring (color of choice) OR 1/4 teaspoon paste food coloring (color of choice) (paste makes more intense colors) The above ingredients are the actual face paint to be used. You may wish to add other things for application of makeup and special effects as listed below. 1 small mixing bowl 4 paper cups 4 Cotton swabs or sm. brush 1 box facial tissues cotton balls or batting puffed wheat cereal In bowl, mix 3 tablespoons cornstarch and 1 tablespoon flour. Gradually stir in 3/4 cup Karo corn syrup and 1/4 cup water until smooth. This amount will make up 4 children's faces. Divide mixture between 4 paper cups. Color 3 batches with food colors of your choice (1/2 teaspoon liquid or 1/4 teaspoon paste for each batch). Leave 1 batch untinted. For additional colors, prepare more makeup. Separate tissues into single layers; tear lengthwise into 2-inch wide strips. Using swabs or brush, paint generous coat of untinted mixture on forehead; place strip of tissue over area; pat firmly with fingertips. Brush on more of same mixture to cover any dry spots on tissue. Continue painting rest of face, one area at a time, and covering it with tissue. Don't paint eyelids or around eyes. Let dry about 15 minutes; time depends on temperature and humidity. Stir colored batches before using. Paint on 1 color at a time as desired. Let dry slightly before using another color if you want them to blend, or let dry completely if you don't. To speed process, use hair dryer on air setting. For deeper, smoother, candy-color effect, use several coats of same color (allow to dry slightly between coats). TO BUILD UP EYEBROWS, nose or chin (or for beard) apply cotton to damp, untinted mixture. Paint with more of the same. Cover with tissue and paint desired color. FOR GHOULISH EFFECT, dust made-up face with flour. FOR WARTS, stick on Puffed Wheat cereal with untinted mixture, then coat with layers of mixture-soaked tissue. Paint desired color.
