Get Ready for Halloween - the Scariest Time of the Year!

Ghouls and ghosts are scary - but don't let the thought of planning a Halloween celebration send shivers down your spine! Halloween should be a fun occasion, without the stressful preparations and post-holiday let down that other holidays sometimes involve. A little imagination and planning can go a long way toward making this Halloween a little less hair-raising.

• It's never too early to start thinking about your costume. How about picking out a theme that the whole family can dress up in, like the Three Bears or a local sports team? Witches and ghosts are perennial favorites, but current events, movies and TV shows or even your kids' favorite books can inspire more inventive and unusual costumes.

• You'll want to have plenty of snacks and treats on hand for hungry little goblins and grown-ups, too! Whip up a batch of Goblin Nibbles, a spicy, crunchy mixture of nuts and cereal made with Kikkoman Teriyaki Marinade & Sauce or some Crispy Soy Snackers made with Kikkoman Soy Sauce for scooping up salsa or onion dip.

• If you're the kind of person who needs no excuse to exercise your culinary creativity, why not whip up some trick-or-treats from your kitchen? Wrap our featured recipe homemade teriyaki popcorn balls in orange cellophane and black ribbons to tie into with the Halloween theme. You'll find this recipe as well as other edible gift ideas for your all your friends in Kikkoman's Edible Gifts brochure.
