Pittsburgh has only been "home" for about a year (we hail from the lovely Portland, Oregon and as I type this my musical memory says thank you to Loretta Lynn) but despite missing the peculiar charms of the NW, this town built of iron and molybdenum has been welcoming with perogies, hills, salads made of french fries and a language all of its own. Here are some things you may not have known herald from the land of the three rivers:
Ferris Wheel
Mr Yuk
Big Mac
Zippo Lighter
Daylights Savings Time
Mr Rogers
and a household staple (at least in this region)...Heinz Ketchup
So why not try printing with something a little local? I printed these post cards using my letterpress and a bottle of Heinz ketchup.
The only thing missing is a french fry. If there is anyone feeling regionally jilted or disappointed that Hunt's wasn't used, let me know and I'd be glad to give it a squirt.
