Hi, there!
Halloween will be here before you know it- stop by N2N to check out our costume rack and pick up a little inspiration...we have a red sequined dress that would make the perfect flapper costume. There's a beautiful vintage wedding dress waiting for the right corpse bride. There's one of cutest dinosaur costumes ever. Here's what Rachel put together a couple of years ago...all from items she found at N2N:

Spotlight on: Stoned Elegance
Phyllis Crusoe is a multi-talented lady. In addition to a demanding career with Brenau University, she's also the CEO and chief designer for Stoned Elegance, a great source for custom jewelry at affordable prices.
She's making a gift for one of my girls (I can't say what and I can't say for whom) and I'm absolutely thrilled with the service, the quality and the price. She took my inarticulate description of what I had in mind and made it happen!

Chicken Corn Casserole
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups cooked, diced chicken (chilled or frozen)
1 (11-oz) can Southwestern- or Mexican-style corn (undrained)
1 (10-oz) can mild diced tomatoes and green chiles (undrained)
1 cup corn muffin mix
1/4 cup light sour cream
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1/4 cup shredded reduced-fat sharp Cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
Combine all ingredients (except cheese) in medium bowl. Transfer mixture to baking dish. Bake 25 minutes.
Remove from oven, sprinkle cheese over top; bake 5 more minutes or until cheese melts. For best results, let stand 5 minutes before serving.
Lighted Glass Blocks
One of the most beautiful holiday craft decorations I've seen is a lighted glass block that I spotted at Cheryl's house a couple of years ago. She had purchased it at a church bazaar.
Using her block as a guide, we made several to sell at the Optimist Club Christmas Tree lot. We bought the blocks at Lowe's and Arthur, who grew up in the glass business, was kind enough to drill the holes for us. You can do your own drilling or order pre-drilled blocks off of the Internet. You can make Christmas decorations or, by using different ribbon, make an adorable nightlight for a baby's room. Click
