And I need Ideas on what to make. I'm going to be making the whole thing so I could use any and all suggestions on what to make.

Food
Food at Samhain tends to be heavy on meat, because of its' proximity to the culling of animals for winter food. Root vegetables also play an important part in this feast. Often charms of particular symbols or significance were hidden inside a loaf of bread or other dish to act as a divination for the coming year.
• red wine, cider, spirits to toast the dead
• roasted meats - venison, poultry, pork, beef, mutton
• root vegetables - potatoes, carrots, parsnips, turnips
• cabbage
• apple dishes
• pomegranates
• hearty stews and soups
• heavy, dark breads

Since it's about honoring the dead- what about fixing a dead person's favorite food?

I am making chicken and corn rivel soup and baked apples. Both are very good dishes and I would highly recommend them! ^_^

I am also making a fun alcoholic drink. It is really easy to make. Put apple cider, cinnamon sticks and cubed apples into a pot and let it come to a boil. When it comes to a boil turn off your heat. Pour it into a mug or cup. Add red wine and vodka. Mix well. I would highly recommend this too (if you are 21 or older of course).

That sounds fun. I'll have to write that down for next year(not quite 21 yet).

It is a fun drink. It is perfect for a cold, autumn day.

That's what I was figuring and why I said next year. I turn 21 end of March.
