Creepy-Crawly Bugs

Ingredients:
1 tube (11 ounces) refrigerated breadsticks
8 smoked sausage links or hot dogs
1/2 to 3/4 cup potato sticks
Ketchup and/or mustard

Directions
Separate dough into strips. Unroll and cut eight strips in half widthwise; set remaining strips aside. Cut sausages in half widthwise. Wrap one piece of dough around each sausage, leaving the rounded end showing. Place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Place reserved breadsticks on baking sheet.

Bake at 350° for 15-17 minutes or until golden brown. Remove bugs to a serving plate and cool for 2 minutes.

Insert potato sticks into baked dough to resemble legs and antennae. Decorate with ketchup and/or mustard. Serve warm. Save remaining breadsticks for another use. Yield: 8 servings.

I have not tried these but they sound like something I might try Thursday night.

You have anything to share?

Bryan and I have no children and no relatives who live on this side of the continent. Our house is out in the middle of nowhere, and we don’t get Trick-or-Treaters.

We pretty much have lost Hallowe’en completely. It has been about five years since we carved pumpkins

[pollywog]

Okay!!! Here goes!!! My OPEN LINE TUESDAY VENT! HALLOWEEN.... really not my favorite day, but I tolerate it for little children. Yes, I have two adorable Scarecrows dressed up holding a " Happy Harvest" sign on my front porch and a wheelbarrel with pumpkins...

BUT............and this is a biggie...

We live in Los Angeles. It has been taken over with DROVES of Teens who toss eggs on cars, overtake the streets and in our area are almost BUSSED in from south Los Angeles.

The days when adorable Trick o Treaters came to the door and gathered their candy with their parents are longed for....

lol...okay.. you asked for it.
I'm back in my corner reading now!!

When I lost my house, I was “tempted” to move into an “Over 55 Mobile home Community”.

However, they Specified:
NO DOGS OVER 20 POUNDS
NO MOTORCYCLES
NO LOUD MUSIC

(I am a gun-toting, Harley Riding Rock Bass Player with a Big lab)

So I moved into a complex with lots of kids, dogs, motorcycles, and loud music.

I fit right in!

And i told the folks at the over 55 where they could place the double-wide they were trying to sell me.

I don’t get as many trick-or-treaters though, as i used to, and always end up with leftover candy!
(sigh)

[pollywog]

[pollywog]

[pollywog]
