Since the calendar is rapidly swallowing my free weekends, I need to make a list of "must do"St. Louis things before I leave. So far I have already seen/done
- The Arch
- Anheuser Busch Factory Tour
- Missouri History Museum
- St. Louis Art Museum
- City Museum
- Old St. Louis Cathedral
- Ted Drewes' frozen custard
- Italian food at Ragazzi's on The Hill
- cheap happy hour food in the Central West End
- many, many meals in The Loop (Fitz's, Blueberry Hill, etc. etc.)
- Cardinals game in Busch Stadium
- Blues game in the Scottrade Center
- Walking through Forest Park
- Kickball League in Tower Grove Park
- Botanical Gardens
- Forest Park Zoo
- Science Center
- paddle boats in Forest Park
- outdoor theater at the Muny
- movies at the Moolah, Tivoli
- Soulard Farmers Market
- Bellefontaine Cemetery
- "The Rock" Church/ 2 hour Gospel music Mass
- St. Francis Xavier/SLU College Church
- that log cabin church in Cahokia Texas Volunteer wants to visit
- actually doing good photo shoots of the Cathedral and local parishes now that I have my tripod in town
(Although really, the only way to become a true St. Louisan is to grow up in your grandparents' house here and then attend a notable high school.)

Don't forget to attend a Latin High Mass, Sundays @ 10:00am, St. Francis de Sales Oratory
I just did that this weekend! Post coming soon.
What? No Gus' Pretzels?
Found your blog at the Crescat. I grew up Catholic in St. Louis (St. Joseph Croatian Church and School at 12th and Russell). Your blog reminds me of how much I loved it there. Thanks
You're welcome, Dixie!
I'm gluten intolerant, so sadly most of the delicious starchy St. Louis food is off limits to me :-(
