The United States is a big and varied place. Our food is as diverse as our multi-cultural population. There are so many popular American foods. I didn’t realize it until I was older, but we are so lucky to have such a variety of cultures and foods all around us. And because of this variety, […]

I try not to return to places I’ve already visited, but of course, it’s a different story when visiting family. I’ve written about my mom’s town of scenic Silverton, Colorado before. But not when visiting…with kids [cue screeching horror music]. This visit, I got to see the town a bit differently. If you’re looking for […]

No dry cleaners. And no McDonald’s. For a slice of pure […]

I just swung into Silverton, Colorado—population 425. My mom and stepdad are 2 of them. They know about half of the townsfolk and probably most of the dogs. They have six of their own. And of course, there are no stoplights. This old mining town’s official beginning came in 1874 with the discovery of gold […]
