Toxic & Delicious… I can’t wait to make a whole batch of these Zombie Boogers for my son’s second grade Halloween party. They have just the right amount of GROSS HUMOR to entice a 7-year-old to take a bite. Made from a popcorn-marshmallow-sugar mixture, these “boogers” are sticky and sweet, and are sure to be something the kids will have fun talking about at the party!
- ½ cup stick butter
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 Tablespoons light corn syrup

Josephine Guicciardi is the nom de plume of our creative Evermine blogger. With romantic connections to Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Immortal Beloved” love letters, it is in keeping with the blog’s themes of love and joy. The great composer writes the famous words “ever thine, ever mine, ever ours” to a woman who remains a mystery to this day. Two of the most likely objects of his adoration are Josephine Brunsvik and Guilietta Guicciardi, and it’s from these two women that Josephine Guicciardi draws her persona.
really cute idea!
