    I love Halloween and find myself scanning the seasonal section as soon as September 1st arrives to see what fun items have hit the shelves. While at Walmart recently, I saw these fun Mini Monsters cans of soda in our favorite varieties! At only 7.5 oz. they are perfect for parties!

    Somehow they ended up in my cart, and the wheels in my head started turning!

    Our Mad Scientist Elixir was born! These take-home party favors are not only interactive, but they are tasty too! Did you know that if you combine Squirt + fizzing candy that it goes CRAZY? Bubbles and pops all over the place like a potion. A fun reaction right before your eyes. When you combine A&W Root Beer + fizzing candy it gets fizzy and frothy.
