But of course, ones definition of "ugly" is relative! My hometown of Victoria (http://www.tourismvictoria.com/), also the capital of British Columbia, is just a few hours south from Nanaimo (on the tip of Vancouver Island) and is typically where most people visit when coming to the Island. But in all honesty, you can't beat the breathtaking ocean vistas and mountain ranges that surround us on the west coast of BC. Nanaimo or otherwise! And of course, I am a good Canadian girl with a family Nanaimo Bar recipe, handed down through the generations. ;) Too funny — I am from Vancouver Island (where Nanaimo is) and yes, the Island is one of the most beautiful places on earth (hence the photos on the Nanaimo City website) but truth be told, the actual city of Nanaimo is terribly ugly!

I love those tri-level cookies too, and sometimes I make them. We call them Neopolitan bars - I think they're supposed to represent the colors of the Italian flag. They are a bit of work, but well worth it! I invite you to enter my Valentine giveaway. You could win a pink, bead-knitted purse, hand-knit by me, with a chocolate bar charm. S.W.A.K.

I'm always amazed when I realize that most people outside of Canada don't know what Nanaimo Bars are. I grew up in Vancouver, they've been a part of my life always. They're wonderful and I love the Valentine's Day effect. Thank you for sharing the history of them with others. They look wonderful.
