Wash the celery. Using plastic knives, cut the celery into
thirds. Fill each celery stalk with one tablespoon of either peanut butter
or cream cheese. For the wings, gently push 1 pretzel into the
filling, running parallel to the length of the celery stick. Do the same on the celery's other lengthwise side. Arrange the raisins or currents
as the eyes, nose and mouth. For antennae, push the slivered almonds
or mushroom cap into filling. If using mushrooms, arrange the spaghetti-like mushroom tips upward, like an antenna.
