What's your take on the nearby parks and other places to run or walk?

I would like to rollerblade but I need some paved trails too! There is a lot of traffic to be blading in the streets.

Who is new to Oak Park and who's a DOOPer (dear old Oak Parker)?

I was born in Lombard, grew up in Detroit, went to college in Kalamazoo, MI and then moved here in August 2009 with my husband and two doggies.

Best Bagels in Oak Park?

When I lived in Mexico that was one thing that I craved and they didn't have! When I got back to the states that was one of the first things I wanted to eat!

Chef Leonard at Marion St. Cheese Market has been singing the praises of arepas ever since we caught wind of the opening. I've never had one before, so I'm very eager to check Aripo's out.

Ah! That explains why they look so enraptured! Note to self for next time.

I can't wait for you and your husband to open up Aripos. I've never had an arepa before, but they look tasty.
