Happy Halloween

This is a picture of the breakfast I made for Andy this morning. It is a Ghost. It was originally supposed to be a Jack-o-Lantern, but I had several problems in preparing it this morning. I went to the grocery store and they did not have Cool Whip, just whip cream in a can. Although this would have made coloring it more difficult, I was willing to try except the food coloring was REALLY expensive and I didn't think it was worth it. Besides, a Ghost captures the spirit of Halloween just as much as a Jack-o-Lantern. Then I was going to make waffles, but realized that our waffle iron is square shaped not round (we haven't used it in a while). This was still OK until I managed to burn the first waffle to the top and bottom of the iron. I then switched to pancakes. I also ruined one of those before turning out an acceptable one. I topped it with whip cream and chocolate covered strawberry halves (remember this was supposed to be a Jack-o-Lantern and I think it would have been a lot better if that original idea had worked out) and put it on a plate. Andy ate it, so I guess my breakfast turned out to be a success. Hopefully next year I will get it right.
