CREAMY SALSA DIP AND VEGGIES

Steps:

• Stir together salsa and sour cream. Scrape the dip you made into a small bowl. Put the small bowl in the middle of a big plate. Arrange the veggies all around the dip and serve.

WITCHES BREW

Steps:

• Puree the cucumbers, jalapeños, sugar and ? cup water in a blender until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher. Add 1 cup lime juice to the pitcher and stir. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice on a plate. Combine 2 tablespoons salt and the chile powder on another plate. Dip the rims of 8 glasses into the lime juice, then into the salt mixture. Add ice to the glasses.
• Add the soda to the pitcher and stir, then divide the punch among the glasses. Garnish with gummy candies.

WITCHES' BROOMS

Steps:

• Cut each piece of string cheese in half so you have 2 shorter sticks. Working one at a time, make 4 cuts vertically in one end of the cheese sticks, stopping about 3/4 inch from the top. Roll the cheese so the cuts are not parallel to the cutting board, and make 2 or 3 more cuts to form the bristles of the broom. Press a pretzel stick into the uncut end of the cheese stick to make the handle. Tie a chive in the middle of top (uncut) end of the cheese stick; this holds the broom head together. Repeat for the remaining brooms.
• Spread the mustard haphazardly on the bottom of a black or white plate. Stand the brooms up on their bristles as if they are sweeping up the mustard.
