There are already some useful tips for Hallowe'en on the site but as the word Hallowe'en fails to come up with anything in the search engine for some unfathomable reason I thought I would draw your attention to them plus some fun ideas for a Hallowe'en cheeseboard I've posted on my blog The Cheeselover today.

First there are some useful suggestions of what to drink at Hallowe'en including some suitably spookily named wines and beers and various black and orange drinks. (Hallowe'en is nothing if not kitsch!) There's also a menu for a Hallowe'en supper for 4-6 which includes a Hot Chilli Butternut Squash Soup, a Beef, Fig and Chestnut Casserole and a Roast Pumpkin and Pecan Pie.

And just in case you've never tackled a squash or a pumpkin before visit my student cookery website www.beyondbakedbeans.com for instructions! And here are some ideas for what to do with the leftovers!

Have a happy Hallowe'en!
