You are down to five days until Halloween. There are only a few off-hours, one ridiculous idea and one frantic trip to the craft store between you and drunken costume-required bashes. Don't end up hyperventilating in the line at Halloween Adventure on Oct. 31 like you did last year — get ready now and collect compliments on your brilliance later.

Dressing as a clever comestible will surely distinguish you from the hordes of drooling Jokers and slutty Sarah Palins sure to dominate this year's fancy-dress festivities. For the ladies, personifying your favorite cocktail is class itself. Take at peek at the White Russian for evidence: You could assemble your own pale Cossack costume from I. Goldberg or grab the complete look at anytimecostumes.com. Options for a Sex on the Beach ensemble are myriad: the only requirements are sand and lack of shame.

Pick up a novelty snout and steal some baby's security for a Pig in a Blanket costume, or geek out on homonyms wearing a gold thrift store find and multiple carrots on a string around your neck as 14-"Carrot" Gold.

CostumeCraze.com boasts a range of majorly edible costumes if you can't stomach the puns. Search for the honey with the money as a bag of Sugar Babies; or make the scene as everyone's favorite potted meat, Spam. Babies are never cuter than when they're dressed as food, so package the little guy in a Wonder Bread bunting and use him as a bait to gather more candy.

Coolest-Homemade-Costumes.com has galleries full of good ideas to cop: the pair of Dunkin Donuts look delicious and are safe from barfly toe-stompers.
