I spotted several local artists items today and for that I'm adding a star back to Revelry. It's great that local folks have a spot to showcase their items and become recognized by new customers. Roman, the store's dog, is also a fan favorite. This store is full of items. Be aware the shopping spaces are tight and if you have young kids, several expensive items that are breakable may make you feel anxious.

You're going to find a bunch of things you don't need yet want plus gifts for friends and family. The store is full of home decor, jewelry, artwork, candles, and even more home decor. During the holiday season they are known for their ornaments which they dangle from the ceiling. I've bought several items, including furniture, from the Red Tree and I love it all. Prices can be a bit of a splurge but the unique vibe makes up for it. Always friendly service. Find them primarily at the front counter downstairs. Street parking is available and most without meters.

You can tell they really love the town/city that they're representing. I love people who genuinely love things. The Southern Indiana Visitor Center definitely has people behind the counter who love Southern Indiana. They made me feel even more psyched than I already was to explore the area. They offered tips on what to see, what to eat, the best places to park, and advice about whether or not I should bundle up before heading out on my walk. (Apparently, I might have looked like I needed more layers.) There are also dozens of brochures and booklets about area attractions, which you can take for free. Basically, if you're thinking of visiting the area, this is the place to visit. The Southern Indiana Visitor Center also has a little gift shop full of Indiana paraphernalia, including magnets, candles, bags, artwork, books, cutting boards and lots more. You can also find merch for the local soccer team, Southern Indiana FC.

There is also a variety of African jewelry and fun trinkets available for purchase as well. As soon as you walk through the door, there is the delicious smell of freshly baked cookies. Each cookie is pretty large and is individually wrapped. Best of all, they're reasonably priced! Okay, so as a tourist, this place popped up on my radar because of an episode of 'Little America' (The Baker) on Apple TV. It's a series of dramatized immigrant stories and when I watched this episode, I saw that the founder had a shop in Louisville. Since I was visiting Louisville soon, I put this place on my list and felt like I just had to visit since I love the immigrant stories from the show. Came in and was greeted and I ordered a few cookies since I was on my way out of town (driving up to Indianapolis). The cookies made for delicious road snacks!

Most recently we grabbed cookies while at the Kentucky State Fair. Snickerdoodle will always be my favorite. I don't crave the cookies as much as I used to. The primary reason they are easier to resist is that they are dryer and perhaps not as fresh due to the business growth. I miss the older experience of a softer, fresher cookie that doesn't crumble. A variety of flavors are available - from the traditional chocolate chip and oatmeal to double chocolate chip and pumpkin. This store is located on Bardstown Road, which requires street parking.

There were some seriously good costumes! It was really crowded, and there were definitely some screaming kids who were scared, which honestly just made the whole experience even more entertaining. They advertised having food trucks, but I honestly didn't see any. There was one possible food truck right at the entrance, but I wouldn't go expecting a whole variety of food trucks to choose from. Maybe I just missed them! Overall, it was crowded, creepy, fun, and wonderful. Exactly what you want from a Creep Fest! #CaulfieldsCreepFest #LouisvilleKY #CreepFest #SpookySeason #PhoebeExplores

It's obvious that customer service is important to the owners and the community has responded positively and embraced them seeing as they have been around over 100 years!
