Teacher trades classroom for artisan pastries at new Tri-Cities patisserie
Elizabeth West has always enjoyed baking. Recently, the Tri-Cities native decided to take the leap and leave her job teaching in the Richland School District to pursue her passion with her husband, Matthew. Shrub-Steppe Patisserie is now open in Richland. French flavors Before opening a pâtisserie of her own, West went to the homeland of croissants and tarts, studying at a culinary program in France. Even the concept of a patisserie is French. “(A) patisserie is a very specific shop that sells pastries,” West said. “Bakery is kind of a catch-all for everything we (make) here. A bakery might mean cakes, or it might mean bread, or it might mean pastries, or it might mean a combination of all three.” Sweet enthusiasts can expect chocolate éclairs, apple turnovers, seasonal tarts and chocolate croissants. West imports her chocolate from France, so expect real, authentic flavors.

Rules of the Road: Can't we all just calm down? Physical strategies to slow traffic
Q: There is a lively discussion online about the new choker curbs on a road in Richland, half the people supporting them and half saying the city has created an unsafe condition. I would appreciate any thoughts you have on the effectiveness of traffic-calming devices, how they work, the legal basis for them, and how local drivers adapt to the changes. A: When someone is really fired up, have you ever tried telling them to just calm down? How’d that play out? And when someone is driving too fast, does telling them to slow down work? Maybe for some, but we have more options. Traffic-calming has two primary goals: slower speeds and less traffic. Although related, we’ll leave traffic volume for another day. We can sort two common speed-reduction approaches into big buckets I’ll call physical and behavioral. Physical strategies involve making changes to the roadway that compel drivers to respond. Traffic engineers break this into three methods: horizontal deflection (preventing drivers from traveling in a straight line, using tools like lane shifts, chicanes, and roundabouts), vertical deflection (like speed humps that force drivers to slow down to avoid discomfort), and street width reduction (which includes corner extensions, median islands,
