Candy Corn Pizza



Apparently, this trend started in 2017 after a post on Twitter when a poster topped a frozen pizza with candy corn, baked it and posted it online.

It divided people with most of heavily being on the negative side, like in the video above and like the Twitter poster below:



Of course if you are a sugar-loving kid, you might have a different opinion as this young gal tried the original version of candy corn dumped on a frozen pizza and liked it.


For one that more people might like though, I have to agree with the video from Mashed that using a cookie-like base, peanut butter, and Reeces Pieces would be an improvement and could actually be delicious.

I have made "Fruit" pizza (which everyone loved) and the base for that was a sugar cookie crust topped with cream cheese and powdered sugar "sauce" and topped with cut-up fresh fruit, like Kiwi, Strawberries, and Pineapple.  I think using candy corn with a sprinkling of other candy toppings might work well also.



I think this might be fun to try if you have a child as they may like it and enjoy how it grosses the adults out. 

It also could be fun to have at a party or carry-in, although this makes me think of a phrase I overhead a woman a Costco buying something that might be gross to serve at a party "It's will be fine.  I also bought a lot of alcohol.  Somebody will eat it".

What are your thoughts on Candy Corn pizza...Yeah or Nay?  Is it something you think you would try?   Please feel free to comment below.

Zombie Walk - Fort Wayne - 2017


Hello and welcome to day 22 of Countdown to Halloween.

Yesterday in the city I live in they had there Annual Zombie walk.  The first year there was around 50 people and I had heard on the news they were expecting around 10,000 and from what we could see, it did look like there were more people downtown for this event than for the Annual 3 Rivers Festival.

We arrived too late to find any good parking spots, but did find the above video on Youtube to that shows the Zombie Walk and we were able to snap a few pics driving around.

Here are the pics:

Only a ghoul or two in front of the Embassy Theater, but as I indicated in my post yesterday, it is allegedly haunted by a phantom that the employees believe to be a former stage manager.



Dr, Jekyll, I presume?

A zombie with Starbucks on the right; guess if you are undead you still need to have that caffeine fix.

Looks like we have a dead bride and perhaps a werewolf here.

Not everyone wanted to be the undead today; some dressed up as superheroes and children dressed in cute costumes.  Today was all about the love of Halloween.

This is one of several streets downtown that were blocked off and this is to show how big this event was.  There is a stage set up on this one and the Zombie Survival Guide indicated there were 27 different events going on during the day, from getting made up as zombie down by the library to children's activities in the day  a showing of "Rocky Horror" at the Botanical Conservatory

Again, just because you are a zombie, doesn't mean you don't want to show off your classic car so there was also a car show any it looked live several cars were passing out candy to the kids.



More of the classic cars and zombies

Getting a Dr. Suessical balloon had made at one of the events not just for kids, looks like Grandpa found his spirit animal and its name is Red Hat Lady Latex.
