I made my first visit to St. Louis to visit a friend back in June, and I was pleasantly surprised at what a fun, inviting city it is...with so much to do! I laughed when you mentioned the Museum of Westward Expansion (the museum under the Arch).

Imo's cheese does have a very "stick to the roof of your mouth" quality, but not all St. Louis style uses the same kind of cheese. My husband's family lives in NW Chicago, so we are fans of your style also, but why does it take at least 40 minutes to cook??Asher and Ellie's Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03656190742936822688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-43584538434188493852009-09-28T23:33:48.459-04:002009-09-28T23:33:48.459-04:00i read thru all of these==sounds like a fun family...i read thru all of these==sounds like a fun family vaca!MaNiC MoMMy™https://www.blogger.com/profile/14038801888210803955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732255176396931795.post-62669649661038641512009-09-28T10:16:52.915-04:002009-09-28T10:16:52.915-04:00Congratulations to your sister and her husband!

Another must see is the Magic House in Kirkwood, and the City Museum on Washington.

I have pod pictures, ball stadium pictures and "top of the arch" pictures. Among a couple hundred others. And I know the strip you ate at-very nice and interesting.
