Cannabolism.


Okay. This is a Shrunken Head. I know what your thinking...but the answer is no. It is not a real head. :)It's an apple head! Brad and I just made them with the Whipples, and honestly I think we will adopt this tradition from them and do it every year. They are so cheap, and would be fun to make for FHE, on a date, with kids, when your bored, when you have a lot of apples and you don't know what to do with them...etc...basically, there is no bad occasion for making them.

All you need are the following ingredients:
Apples
Lemon juice and salt water mixture
knives
toppings (cloves for the eyes, rice for the teeth, etc...)

Step 1- peel the apples
Step 2 -dip the peeled apple in the lemon juice and salt water mixture
Step 3- Cut a face into them
Step 4- add cloves for the eyes, etc...
Step 5- you can put them in the oven, or we just left them sitting out on our counter and they are drying out.



This is our sweet center piece that we like to call "rose among the leafs with shrunken heads in front of it" . Okay, just kidding. We actually don't really call it that long name, but the leaves we picked up in provo canyon, the flower is from our front yard, and you know where we got the heads! It seems like we just keep adding to our table center piece, but its alot of fun!
