Peanut-Binder-and Jelly Sandwich

Cut the crusts from two slices of bread. Spread on peanut butter and jelly or your favorite filling. Make holes along one edge of the sandwich with a straw, then thread whip licorice through them to look like a spiral notebook binding.


Chew-'em-Up Pencils

Trim the "eraser" end of a big pretzel so it's straight. Trim the opposite end into a slight point by making tiny wedge cuts. Using chocolate frosting as your glue, add a Bugle corn snack to make the sharpened end and a miniature marshmallow to make the eraser. Dip the tip of the Bugle in chocolate frosting to make the lead point.
