The Origins of Halloween
Halloween began with Celtic Paganism in Britain and the feast of Samhain, a new year. They believed that it was a night where spirits came out, and to appease them, people would give them different treats. Later, it was celebrated in Ireland, Whales, Scotland, and parts of Whales. After Christianity started to take root in other countries, they tried to ban Halloween until both Christians and Pagans incorporated their practices.
Chocolate Cherry Mice
(DO NOT EAT THESE IF YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO PEANUTS)
- 1 cup of chocolate chips milk or semi-sweet

Instructions
- In the microwave or over the stove, melt the chocolate chips and shortening together. Stir until smooth.
- Holding a cherry baits stem, dip it into the chocolate and then press a chocolate kiss onto the cherry.
- Wedge peanut halves between the cherry and chocolate kiss to make the ears.
- Place this on wax paper until chocolate dries.
- Add a couple dots of white frosting for eyes, then put a little melted chocolate on a red-hot and place on the end of the kiss to make the nose.
