Party Recap
This was our 5th annual halloween party and while I typically have a generic halloween theme going, Once we figured our our costumesI knew I wanted to switch things up and have a Hocus Pocus theme. It’s such a fun halloween movie and so many details to play with! We watched the movie on repeat to help figure out a fun menu and decorations and of course our costumes! From dead man's toes and lucky rat tails to Sanderson Sister's Specialty cocktails, it was a bunch of Hocus Pocus kinda party!
Party Highlights

What People Ate
Lots of food! But the themed food included dead man's toes hot dogs, zombie eye meatballs, sloppy joe and a "child on toast" (raspberry preserve and cream cheese toast), Lucky Rat Tail Slim Jims.

What People Drank
Sanderson Sister's Specialty Cocktails. I tried to stick with the colors of the sisters cloaks to theme the drink and just looked for recipes to fit! "Life Potion" - apple cider and lemonade with greed food coloring! Burning Rain of Death Water
-
Desserts
An amazing spell book cake that looked just like the real thing! Spell book brownies, Thackery Binx cookies, Lucky Rat Tail Twizzlers, Shish ka-baby fruit kabobs and fingers of a man named Clark (Clark bars).

Hi all! Sorry for the delay! I'll have to look and see if I can find the printable files for this one. It was 5 years and one computer ago so I'll have to do some digging through old files!
