I work for an upscale kitchen gadget store that also sells speciality coffees and teas, etc.-well ANYWAYS-I was THRILLED to see some of our new Halloween stuff came in last week and the manager couldn't wait to tell me (I just work weekends there). We sell Dept 56 merchandise and got some really cooool new stuff! I can't wait til it gets all put out. Last year was my first Halloween there and I had a blast! Beautiful fall dishes, dish towels, candles, witches, pumpkins, the coolest night lights too! We go ALL out for Halloween there. We have a fall open house and we dress up as witches and we get to wear the cool witch hats we sell. So, yeah, I'm just braggin cuz I'm SO EXCITED about Halloween this year!!
