    Halloween for big kids

    Yeah, that's us I'm talking about. Adults. Every year we seem to take over a little more of Halloween than the year before, to the point where it's become as much of a holiday for us as for the kids - maybe even more so. This year AAA is actually offering their Tow-to-Go service for Halloween - usually reserved for holidays like New Year's. And now, there are even Halloween-themed alcoholic beverages. Try this one (but keep the tow-to-go number handy - 1-800-AAA-HELP!):

    Candy Corn Martini:
    (recipe courtesy of Orzel Vodka)

    Fill a martini shaker with ace
    Combine 2 1/2 ounces of chilled vodka and 1/2 ounce of pumpkin liqueur.
    Shake well.
    Place a few candy carons at the bottom of a martini glass.
    Strain the mixture into the glass over the candy corn.
