Halloween is everywhere. Pumpkins, bats, spider webs, and cornstalks decorate neighborhood yards and porches. Walkways are lined with candlelit jack-o-lanterns, harvest wreaths are hanging in doorways, and skeletons are swinging from colorful autumn trees, adding to the anticipation of that festive night of tricks and treats, dressup and parties.

If you're busily preparing treat bags for neighborhood children or hosting a halloween event, why not add a Halloween trivia, or pencil puzzle to the mix? You can get a printable Halloween pencil puzzle ebook by completing the Halloween internet scavenger hunt at Scavenger Hunt Fun. Print a puzzle for each treat bag. Use the trivia at your Halloween party. Along the way you'll discover some great Halloween sites and ideas and there's also a special bonus of a really cool Halloween coloring and activity ebook for kids available to all those who participate.

If this is your first issue of Girl Stuff, you can get your complimentary Beauty Tips e-book by clicking here! The password is only available to those who have subscribed to Girl Stuff and therefore not included in the back issues. I hope you enjoy the information and beauty recipes.

Use the recipes to create some ghoulish gifts. Mix up a batch of body cream, add a drop of black food coloring, and blend to create a gray lotion. Next, fill a small jar with the cream, drop in a couple of tiny plastic spiders, and label the jars with something fun like, "Anti-Wart Cream" or "Vampire Repellent." Give your creations to your friends as favors at your Halloween party.
