It ain't easy being cheesy!

As an avid fan of all things Pittsburgh, a former resident of the region, and someone who frequently visits, I have fallen in love with the place, the people, and the culture of Pittsburgh, PA.  Throughout our many visits, we have toured almost all of the main attractions, and there isn't much I don't like about it.  From Primantis to The Point, there's something for everyone!

I was also inspired by my Polish and Italian heritage, and my ties to the area. In fact, my grandparents both immigrated from Poland, my father worked in a steel mill, and my grandfathers were both miners. My grandmother - and now my mom -  made some fantastic homemade pierogis, pizzelles, and gobs, all from scratch while wearing a babushka. My dad would always make me dippy eggs, our family never turned down a polka, and my in-laws loved getting pop in their buggies at the local Giant Eagle.

 I hope this story inspires people to visit the city that will steel your heart, makes the yinzers that live there chuckle, and gives everyone a sense of what Pittsburgh is all about.
