I know we talked about N salt lake fireworks last year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960285 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:41:47 +0000 anonysquire 960285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Maysprout: not sure about the alcohol. I do know that all dhs family (big drinkers) were fans of some of the Utah beer. Polygamy porter was their fav. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960281 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:40:38 +0000 anonysquire 960281@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: hmm nope, never lived north. My parents and little brother live in draper (right behind me), my sister and her family live in sandy and my brother lives in Provo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960280 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:40:36 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 960280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: There's a place in maybe South Jordan or Murray or somewhere that makes amazing meat pies. Guarantee they won't be open on Pioneer day though. I'll look for recipes too!</p> <p>Meat pies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960277 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:39:23 +0000 Honeybee 960277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Lamb and mushroom pie? There's this place in Carson City that makes the best steak and mushroom pie. I wonder if I can find their recipe... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960276 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:39:07 +0000 Maysprout 960276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll have to let DH know about this pie and beer day. After visiting he was under the impression they were only allowed to sell light beer or some diluted alcohol version of beer in Utah. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960270 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:38:02 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 960270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: So your family lives in North Salt Lake? I could have sworn we had talked about you going to the N. Salt Lake fireworks and it being home... or something like that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960262 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:36:19 +0000 anonysquire 960262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: awesome!

It was so much work, I honestly never knew how much work and pounds of glitter went into those things!</p> <p>Wait do you live in Utah too? I can't keep up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960253 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:32:20 +0000 kjpugs 960253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>From my sis: </p> [attach=2870/13/mqgjpx.531x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960251 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:31:49 +0000 anonysquire 960251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: hahahah I have such a steamy love affair with Bruges. Great now I'm craving it! I used to live in sugarhouse but moved back to draper about 1.5 years ago :)</p> <p>@kjpugs: You can join the cool Utah people's club just because you said you love Utah! Ican honestly say I've never had a plantain! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960243 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:29:28 +0000 Honeybee 960243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: I cannot wait for Pie and Beer Day 2014! Although, I have to say that my very first Pie and Beer Day has been pretty great so far. :)</p> <p>Fun fact, the Pioneer Day Parade in downton Salt Lake City is the fourth largest parade in the US! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960234 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:27:01 +0000 kjpugs 960234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe I should just start a pie and beer day in Florida. Except it would probably become plaintains and rum day or something. Pie and beer is so much tastier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960229 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:26:02 +0000 kjpugs 960229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: @anonysquire: I am (not so quietly) pressuring my sister to get knocked up ASAP (she previously said she was going to post-wedding but now is considering grad school since her company would pay.) If so I am signing her up for this site (she would never use it... she never goes online) and just MAKING HER be friends with my fun Utah Hellobee friends! Such an exercise in futility. Why are there no cool mom peoples in Orlando!?!?!?! (Oh, right, because ITS ORLANDO.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960227 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:25:19 +0000 purrpletulips 960227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember seeing event announcements when we were there earlier this month. I really like the "pie and beer day" idea :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960221 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:23:51 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 960221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: Jinx on Bruges! I thought you lived in North Salt Lake? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960216 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:23:19 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 960216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: We've got lots of hip stuff. I always say this is an underground hipster city. Especially when we stop by Bruges Waffles and Frites or some other awesome eatery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960197 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:20:03 +0000 anonysquire 960197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: definitely salt lake and park city. I live in draper which is now just chain restaurants and shopping. But I don't mind that :) I do love when my crazy, food loving DH finds us local dives in salt lake. I need to get out more. Visit all the farmers markets, the outdoor concerts and more Bruges waffles! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960189 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:17:33 +0000 kjpugs 960189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: LOL it has such interesting culture, and so many "hip" unique stores/restaurants... maybe that's just the parts of SLC and Park City I was in? Just total love! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960183 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:16:19 +0000 kjpugs 960183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: I totally will! DH was super jealous when I told him how great it was and wanted to move there immediately (he always does that, he has total wanderlust) so I'd love to take a trip out there with him and LO next year. I visited last November, we got one delightful day then a blizzard, but it was still great. I'd love to go in nicer weather and get to do more outside stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960179 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:15:49 +0000 anonysquire 960179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: coolness-wise lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960174 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:14:51 +0000 kjpugs 960174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: I agree, I think the jokes/comments my sister gets are similar to those I got when I moved to Indiana, but there is a LOT more going on in Utah than there was in Indy. Nature-wise, and also coolness-wise. We had such a blast on vacation there, I can't wait to go again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960170 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:14:31 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 960170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: Let us know when you visit! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960161 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 15:12:52 +0000 anonysquire 960161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: thanks!</p> <p>@kjpugs: I'm surprised to hear a ton of people say they love Utah. I mean I love Utah, but sometimes it gets a bad wrap, but everyone who has visited us has fallen in love too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960093 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 14:59:12 +0000 kjpugs 960093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: so jealous. I love Utah SO much. My sister moved there about two years ago with her then fiance (now husband) and I fell IN LOVE when I visited. This only sweetens the appeal, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/happy-pioneer-day-to-the-utahns-out-there#post-960079 Wed, 24 Jul 2013 14:56:10 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 960079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjpugs: Next year @honeybee: and I have a date to make meat pies and drink beers in celebration. I used to kind of be "meh" on this holiday, but with this new spin on it, I'm super happy about it! </p>
