To make one, use a peeler to trim strips that spiral around
an apple or a pear. With a small knife, carve two small eyeholes, then insert
mini chocolate chips for eyes. If you’re not serving it immediately, brush the
fruit with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Rodent Nibbles

celery, then tuck it under the cheese for tail.

beginning and ending about ½ inch from each end. Cut tongues from red bell
peppers or carrots sliced on the diagonal, then slide them into slit Insert
fresh or frozen corn kernels for teeth.
