Tablescapes, I Want My Mummy!

Ghosts, goblins and ghouls oh my!

The only thing missing are bats flying by

A wise old owl surveys the scene

Of all things scary Halloween

A vampire grins  on a glassy plate….I hope his bite won’t be your fate!

And look there’s more

for the owl to see

From his cheesy nest above the revelry

Mummies and ghosts and spider webs

Scary faces and green scarred heads!

The wicked witch wants outta here!

Maybe she’ll be lured back with a mug of tea

Or better yet a Blood Orange Mar-tin-eeeeee!

Sugar syrup around the rim

will glue the sprinkles firmly in

You can brew these up with Vodka or Gin

Or keep them simply extra virgin!

Blood Orange Martinis are tempting and cool

But have plenty of garlic

So the vampires don’t drool!

The table is set and the fun awaits

For 4 brave souls to eat off these plates!

I want my Mummy!

Note: I used SanPellegrino Sparkling Blood Orange Beverage

You can mix it with vodka or gin to taste*, for a devilish concoction!!

*I tried it with a dash of Triple Sec and thought it tasted like the devil 😮

My favorite fall martini is a Pumpkin Pie Martini here
