From the Lou and proud.

To most people, St. Louis seems like a completely different world. But to us, our quirks are better than other city's quirks. Here are ten quirks only a true St. Louisan will know.

1. It's Bread Co, not Panera

The first Panera originated in St. Louis and was called the St. Louis Bread Company. Another company then bought Bread Co, making the chain widespread and changing the name. However, in St. Louis, the name is still Bread Co.

2. Provel cheese is the best cheese

Provel is a special blend of white cheddar, mozarella, and provolone, that is seriously heaven. St. Louis style pizza is made with provel, and honestly it's the best pizza.

3. "What high school did you go to?"

Seriously, where you went to high school is a big deal. Every high school has a stereotype, and where you went to high school says a lot about yourself.

4. You're a part of the best fan base in sports

Cardinals and Blues fans are seriously the best fans in sports. Almost every game is sold out, we cheer like crazy, and we will support our teams no matter what. Our athletes say it, and even other teams say it: we are the best fan base in sports.

5. We invented some of the best food

Ever heard of toasted raviolis or gooey butter cake? Yeah, they were invented here and are staples on almost every menu throughout the city.

6. The best place to get ice cream is obviously Ted Drew's

Technically it's frozen custard, but it's seriously the best ice cream and is a true St. Louis staple. This place is PACKED after every Cardinals and Blues game, and was recently voted the best ice cream in the world.

7. Most of us don't really live in St. Louis, we live in the suburbs

I don't really live in the city of St. Louis, but I always say that's where I'm from because it's easier than saying your county and having people give you a confused look because they have no idea where that is.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
