Never mind that we can barely spell the name… we still want to eat up everything in their store. Have no fear if you also can’t make it out to K-town. Spaces Kennebunkport has an awesome

Thanks…
Courtney @ Project Pretty says
Maine me!
Thank you thank you thank you for introducing me to this shop. I’m a Maine girl & just moved back after a few years in the midwest. I’ve never even heard of this shop until now. You can bet I’ll be paying them a visit!!Kennebunkport is actually not that unusual of a name in Maine. There is a strong native American influence, so you get town & county names like Piscataquis, Mattanawcook, Aroostook, Sagadahoc, Androscoggin, Mattamiscontis…etc. You get the idea. Anyway, it’s good to see the home state represented! Thanks for sharing!

MAINE ME!
I was in the Peace Corps in a town called Tchibanga (in Gabon). The name always made me smile, especially because they called all of the foreigners “ibambas.” So, I was a Tchibanga Ibamba! :-)

Kelly says
MAINE ME!
It’s not a funny name, but I grew up in Roswell, though it was in Georgia, that didn’t stop people from always making the “aliens!” joke. Hilarious, right?

I’ve seen a town called Cockeysville in MD!
