HAUNTED HOUSE
BOO! Halloween's at hand, and ghosts have to live someplace. Why not spirit them away to this cute-and delicious-haunted house? "I make lots of spooky cookies at Halloween," writes Joanne Woerlein of Etobicoke, Ontario. "Last year I decided to try making a Halloween house out of sugar cookies. It was such fun!"
