Once, some friends & I, who are all Scorpios, had a Scorpio birthday party when I was in the Navy. Since Scorpios are highly sexed, with strong emotions, strong everything, we used jewel tones for colors. We used strong, deep reds, blues, rich greens. We weren't able to find many scorpions, but because we were at an east coast base, we could & did use crabs, both as food & decoration. The hors' d'oeuvre picks had little scorpions on top of them. There was a black scorpion cake, filled with vanilla cream. If you have ever stomped on a scorpion, you know they don't bleed red. When we cut into the cake, it gushed the cream. Gross really, but by the time we cut into the cake, we were too wasted to care how gross it was. I made miniature puff pastries filled with crab, spinach, & brie. We also had special mini omelets made with green onions, finely diced green peppers, finely diced portobello mushrooms, Gouda cheese, & spinach. Another friend who had trained as a cook carved vegetables into scorpion shapes. It was loads of fun. It was also loads of work. Have fun! Good Luck & Blessings

To those of you who think this is a joke, I'm reasonable sure it's real. An autistic child can get fixated on serial killers. While that may seem creepy to you, in the mind of an autistic child there's nothing creepy about it, it's just a part of life. Seven isn't really that young. My four year old grand daughter pretends to kill monsters and sometimes plays dead. I bet most seven year old boys know about shooting, playing cops and robbers, and that sort of thing. Your problem is the other parents. I know many parents who wouldn't let there child go to such a party. While I would let my child go, I can understand that some might think seven is too young. If it's a small party, maybe you can get an OK from all the parents. Some serial killers are very talented. You could focus on there painting or music. Stay away from anything gross or creepy. Maybe you could focus on the victims, or the families that are left behind. You might have to dump the serial killer theme. Is there a plan B.

Well Scorpions are found more in the arid, drier parts of the country you could...
Make a south of the border party - maybe some fake cacti as decorations. Some spicier food (or make it mild, whichever you prefer). Use reds and oranges for the firey, spicy effect.
If you want to be a little different, you could go and use the Scorpions band idea and try an 80s rock band themed party, where you and your friends dress up as the band members (I don't know how old you are, so if this seems a little to college-esque, I apologize).

I looooovvvveee themed parties - I am so lucky I have 4 kids so I can get away with it!!! Our friends think we are crazy but they all come to our parties because it is so much FUN!
Have you seen the Scorpion King? Borrow that DVD - copy the theme - you know - the cool harem style tents - (if you could get The Rock to come that would be hot!), swords, kebabs, camels, serving wenches and dusty sandy desert dwellers - have big Turkish style serving pots (they are rounded bowls with a triangular cone type of lid) on a huge long table with heaps of Turkish / Morrocon / Middle Eastern type foods - dates and fruits etc. Hang lanterns and have heaps and heaps of little plastic (or black posterboard) scorpions everywhere.
Go to the fabric store and buy runs of cheap dress lining (it is silky but really cheap) in bright colors - oranges, hot pinks, brilliant aqua and cover the tables with it - hang it from the centre of the ceiling to the corners and then let it drape down the walls.
If you want to go more with the Scorpio star sign theme maybe you could:
Have all your invitations in deep blue with tiny white star dots in the scorpio star symbol on the front - with your text inside describing a typical scorpio and the party - or black and deep blue - hang fairy lights under deep black fabric everywhere and have black party plates / etc.
Serve food on huge black platters with scorpion tails and legs made of card. Have huge goblets with colored "scorpion blood" punch
oooh it sounds like fun - have a good party

Of course you have to serve the Scorpion. There are many versions offered on a web search. I found 2 different ones that sounded really good. Do a search for " scorpion drink recipes " and find one you like.

It will depend on the fruit or plant linked to a comparison. In the event you compare a farrenheit to a carrot, the carrot is the better of the two nutritional. But once you compare an avocado to the carrot, then an avocado is better. Equally the apple and avocado, are fruits.
