I tried to make a spider web with sour cream, but I couldn’t make a fine enough line. After three attempts I laid some whole wheat spaghetti on the nachos and prayed that people looking at it would think it was a web.
The second challenge as trying to make the muffins look like spiders. I thought using green peppers would look okay and be a healthy thing for JDaniel to eat. He loved the muffins along with the turkey and cheese inside. The olives disappeared quickly. The green pepper legs were handed to me with the suggestion that I might like to eat them. JDaniel thought the muffins looked like spiders. My husband wanted to know why JDaniel was eating cats. Aren’t cats a Halloween symbol? Is there a spider cat? Do they really look like cats?
The third and final challenge was trying to get JDaniel to try wearing the spider rings. He won’t wear bugs on his fingers he told me.
The carrots and apple weren’t a challenge. Thank goodness they went over with JDaniel. I was done with challenges for the day.

I think the spider web came out just great! Too funny about JDaniel not wanting to wear spider rings! LOL

When I looked at the muffins, the first thing I thought was Spider, definitely not Cat. I love this idea – it’s always inspiring to see what you’re doing for JDaniel’s lunches!

I love your spiders! They are definately not cats. I love that JDaniel handed you the green peppers back. I tried to hide a tiny piece in my olive eyes, and the first thing Skylar asked was if she could take them off. Sigh.

Stretching My Imagination says
Spiders for sure. Using the muffin for that makes it look very appealing, and gives you something to use as the main part of the meal. Funny about the spider legs!
