yes, past-y not paste-y

I haven't had a pasty in nearly 13 years.

One of the things I miss the most about the UP.

I forgot,

we're also famous for our bagels and smoked meat.
I love Montreal bagels. I don't eat the smoked meat (I'm a vegetarian) but I love the spices and the smell of the stuff

NC can turn out some great pork barbeque. Sundrop is a regional favorite drink. When my niece was in Iraq my Mil shipped it to her by the carton. And very specific to town near mine, Tony's grape ice cream. It is a legacy.

As for Colorado, you'll have to come and have dinner tomorrow with us on the Great Virtual Vacation to see what we have to offer.

Besides Micro-Brews. I think I heard that Colorado has more Micro-Breweries than any other state!

Unless I've been in the clouds, Oregon has the most. If not, their the ones that started the microbrew craze.

Paso isn't really known for any food, but almost any wine afficando(sp?) knows about Paso Robles wineries.
