Thrifty Good Food Comfort Food For Goblin Week
Halloween is supposed to be next week, but the wildlife goblins are not familiar with human calendars and arrived at our house early. Their early morning activity left us with a pumpkin carving reminiscent of the Norwegian artist Edward Munch’s famous painting “The Scream,” originally exhibited under the German title “Der Schrei der Natur.”
CLEAN SWEEP
We know our local educators are a tremendous asset. This year, the rest of the state gets to appreciate that as well, as Maine Teacher of the Year, Principal of the Year, and Superintendent of the Year have all come from Lincoln County school districts.
