Stylish ghouls will find just the right Halloween gear in this hauntingly cool shop.
Rock, Paper, Scissors, in Wiscasset is the sister shop of Smitten, and shares the same stylish gene pool.
If the thought of encountering a store where you want everything you see makes you uneasy, then you’ll be horrified at what you find here.
Terrified at the sophistication.
Frightened by all the shelves packed with beautiful papers and stationary. (Very much like shops you see all over Europe, but rarely in the US.)
And spooked by all the cool kid gear.
It’s positively chilling how many great treats you’ll find here. But don’t be scared.

Not a whimper.

It’s hard to compete with the spectacular colors on the trees this time of year, but the bittersweet vine is fearless. And triumphant.
You’ll find it growing wild in woodland settings all over Maine. As well as decorating shops and homes.
It appears that the two varieties are hard to tell apart, except that the Oriental Bittersweet is thought to be ‘invasive,’ and the ‘native’ American Bittersweet is thought to be more timid.
Either one can steal the show.
Food for spiders.

Spiders hopefully won’t be found in the lines at Market Basket, Chases Daily, or Farm Fare, but they have a fantastic alternative.
