12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 9

[brack]

That's what we do too, but we also throw in a can of corn (drained)

Instead of corn I prefer green peas.

[ds2Mom]

Not what some of you are thinking .... I was looking for interesting views from the top deck above the atrium. Belle just happened to be there greeting people. It looked like an interesting angle ..... :thumbsup2 :artist: :blush:


Uh huh............sure.............yea, right..........that's your story and you're stickin' with it?!

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[ds2Mom]

Okay , with that in mind then ...here we have option A or option B ...Which do you think ???

Great smilie! :thumbsup2


Have a wonderful time Vanessa!

[ds2Mom]

I just have to say those of you with little girls need to check the mail!! :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc

Charlotte, you are a saint! http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/innocent0006.gif

Dina had to open the package before her sisters got home. :rolleyes: She was thrilled! :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc



Did :tinker: arrive today? ;)

[ds2Mom]

.....I make a ground meat and bean casserole type dish that my DH claims is like what he knows as goulash...


My DM's version was ground beef, elbow macaroni, tomato sauce, cheese.....pretty yummy, actually.

[ds2Mom]

We do goulash here with elbow macaroni and hamburger pasta sauce. It is kind of a cross between mac and cheese and spaghetti.


Yup! That was it! :thumbsup2

[ds2Mom]

Wait a minute...when did I say that...Goulash is a soupy bean mix with ground meat and tomatos (stewed), macaroni noodles and a little spice and something else. Very good...haven't had any in a LONG time. Goulash that is.


Exactly what goulash was in our midwestern home years ago!

[ds2Mom]

Nice try Karen but you forgot to take into account just a few things in your calculations….

1. Friday night chat
2. Vanessa is gone this weekend
3. Another one of us is bound to be banned by next Wednesday
4. Daylight Savings Time
5. Halloween
6. Moon Phases (Full Moon on November 5th)

We will hit 50k on Thursday evening (11/2) – not Wednesday (11/1)….. :sad2:

Silly Karen…leave the math to the professionals… ;) :lmao:



:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[ds2Mom]

BTW - we will also hit 70,000 before we cruise! :yay:


ONLY 70,000?!

:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[ds2Mom]

What is the best 1-way car rental option for this cruise? We will need a car on the 8th and return to the port on the 9th. I will need another 1-way rental from the port to airport on the 16th. I am looking for the cheapest deal for a family of 4. Thanks, Gregg.



CRUISE-RELATED QUERY:

Don't know the answer to this.......but wanted to make sure it wasn't lost in the goulash/bananas/bingo/math calculations! :rotfl2:

[ds2Mom]

Well, I gave up on reading the posts from Sunday-Monday.....just caught up on the ones since yesterday. :surfweb:

Hey, Gregg! Welcome back to the fray!! Are you coming from WDW or the airport? Rentals are a bit trickier from WDW, but doable. We had a Budget from WDW to the port. Budget has a site at Doubletree at WDW and will pick you up at any Disney hotel. They also have a drop off near the port.

[MrsMork]

Well I really didn't want to do this because it will scare Angie but if you are going to grill me about my scientific methods I guess I will have to share my work.

All of this together gives me 50,000 posts on Thursday November 2nd. :teacher: You can check my math if you would like Marielle.

Note: Angie I am very sorry I had to post this. Marielle made me do it! :sad2:

Somebody HELP me! I'm having a panic attack!! :sad2:

Kids! Kids! Can't you all lust get along? :confused3 :teeth:

[MMcCarthy]

...ummmm is he coming with our group????? He might need some kind of warning?! :confused3
nope. he would need a lot more than therapy

[MrsMork]

Angie, the kids are on their way to the airport. I just told them that they are going to get on a plane and see Mrs. Mork. They aren't so sure about that. :rolleyes1
Grandma always has room! :lmao: :rotfl2: ;)

[MrsMork]

Becka, think about it this way...
it seems that lately, if you misbehave, Lisa puts you on a plane to Angie's house! :thumbsup2
OY!! :lmao: :rotfl2:

[MMcCarthy]

The girls had a good time last night at the Eid party (Ramadan). First we stopped at Boscovs, but what the heck happened to that store?!?! Sarah and Amanda were trying to find some sweaters and none fit very well. The one wouldn't even go on an arm?! :confused3 Sarah likened it to one of those Chinese yo-yo things. We did find some cute capri legging with skulls all over them. Now we have to find a cute black skirt for over it and a neat top! Sound good for PN?
sounds great. I saw some of the pirate capri legging thingys at Gabriel Brothers. they had only the kids sizes but they looked really cute

[lbgraves]

i am trying to find games for the party on Saturday. I have some from other years...but I always like to add a few new ones!

We went to a party this month that hung small powdered donuts from the door frame with string. They were spider eggs. ;) The kids knelt down & ate them with their hands behind their back. It was pretty funny to watch. You have to cut a bit of the string each time because their mouth gets on it but the bigger kids go last.

[becka]

Becka, think about it this way...

Let's see now. Angie lives in Oregon and I really liked the NW went I lived there. She does not have preschoolers roaming around her house so I am betting it is quiet. She cooks and I bet she would even understand my DIS addiction. I'm THERE!!!! :thumbsup2

Off to misbehave some more so I can get sent to Angie's!!! :yay:

Quiet night again....where is everyone? :confused3

Did everyone go and get a life? :rotfl:

Exactly what goulash was in our midwestern home years ago!


Ken's mom is Hungarian - that is where ghoulash originated I believe - in Hungary. She makes it with egg noodles, braised beef - stew meat - not hamburger - various vegetables, like carrot etc. I love ghoulash.

Martha will be joining us on the cruise if anyone wants Hungarian cooking tips. She speaks Hungarian too.

elaine

[lbgraves]

Are there any other islands in the area THEY could enjoy...

You know, Grand Abaco Island isn't too far away. :rolleyes1

[becka]

I was doing some google searches for some healthy lunch recipes and I ran across this:

Baked potatoes are a good lunchtime choice, but it's better to leave out the butter, or just have a small amount. Healthy fillings include baked beans, cottage cheese and ratatouille. Try to avoid ready-mixed fillings that contain lots of mayonnaise, because these can be high in fat.

Who puts BAKED BEANS on a baked potato? :eek: That just sounds like one of the worst food combinations ever! For that matter cottage cheese doesn't sound too good either. :sad2:

Anyone watching ghost hunters now? Weird ghost kids...

[lbgraves]

Ah yes, but are there too many variables for Halloween ... loss of posting time, but increased sharing of photos??? How does Brandi's Halloween party affect things? What about Lisa's school carnival?

Carnival means that I wont be in chat or on the boards very much this weekend while I recover. :crazy:

[lbgraves]

Becka, think about it this way...
it seems that lately, if you misbehave, Lisa puts you on a plane to Angie's house! :thumbsup2

Thanks for setting me straight, Marielle!!! :thumbsup2 Those applecrisps should be ready soon with the best apples in season, right? I'll drop the kids off at Kathryn's and hop on the plane myself. Yeah! That's it! I will save money that way too. :thumbsup2

[lbgraves]

Hey look guys....Lisa is home! :rolleyes1:

I was home at 3 but was dealing with the kids...which is why we weren't at the school working on the carnival. I needed a break to deal with them.

You don't know the half of it. :( I really need DH home right now.

[klineyqueen]

You know, there are a lot of variables in that Halloween/posting element. Sure, people will be busy taking the kids around for ToT and handing out the candy corn and peeps to other kids. But every good poster should be posting photos of how adorable the kids/pumpkins/jackolanterns/haunted houses are. Then all the rest of the good posters will have to reply "Wow what a great Power Ranger/Bo Peep/Ghost/Cinderella!!!" to every single post. Really compounds the Halloween posts that way.
Good thinking Marielle!!! I will post all of the Party pics on Sunday!!!!

[klineyqueen]

Ah yes, but are there too many variables for Halloween ... loss of posting time, but increased sharing of photos??? How does Brandi's Halloween party affect things? What about Lisa's school carnival?
I will be unbearably busy but I will try to make up for it on Sunday!!!!

Yes, he called at 7:45 am Monday to tell me that he had to go to MD that afternoon for the week. If things didn't start hitting the fan it would be better. I tried calling him. He will be home Friday night but we wont be able to discuss anything until Saturday. I am praying that the kids don't get suspended tomorrow...that will only make it worse. Yesturday when they were fighting with my friend's DS they were on school grounds. A talk DS had today with the counselor about other things brought that "disagreement" up. I never thought that it could affect them all that way since it wasn't during school. I am praying that nothing else is done about it. :(

Mummy Wrap

Divide guests into pairs Give each pair a roll of toilet paper. One person wraps the other with the paper, first one to empty their roll wins. Older kids and adults get two rolls, once the first person is wrapped they wrap their partner. Prizes to the first team who empty both rolls.

Halloween Corners Game (Good for ages 3 - 8)

Stick up large Halloween themed pictures (ie witch, bat, ghost and black cat) in the four corners of a room. Play some music and when it stops, each child runs to a corner (if you have small numbers you can limit the number of children in each). The music operator without looking then calls out one corner. The kids in that corner are out. The last person left is the winner.

Well, since you guys are all busy, I decided to try out a widget I downloaded for my dashboard on my Mac. It shows you the lyrics for any song you have playing on iTunes.

I just love this song - don't like the whole album, but the refrain from this song makes me think of my Sophia . . .

I'm gonna watch you shine
Gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign
So you'll always know
As long as one and one is two
There could never be a father
Who loved his daughter more than I love you

She is in our living room, pretending to talk Japanese, and trying to fold a shirt like that video that PJ posted.

[Jhalkias]

BTW PJ,

We will now not be your neighbor at SSR on the 5th.

Our waitlist came through for the one night I had to add at OKW.

Unfortunately, however, we will still have to move on the 6th, since we have a 2 bedroom starting then.

So, you don't have to say, there goes the neighborhood - banana John is in town!

OMG! That banana thread is a RIOT! I was laughing so hard I couldn't sign back on. Then of course the "quiet ones" (yeah you Suzanne) come out and post about the a banana protector! And Brack - all serious in response to that ladies 3-4 banana comment. :lmao: I was waiting to see Amy post on the banana holder - or was that you John1. Where is that picture of it.

I wanted so bad to reply but I didn't want DCL to see my name on a thread like that never mind that it is on this one. Karen you are so so fresh. Becka, Brandi - sooooo innocent. I could see your "who me" eyes all the way over here.

That just made my night. Of course I say that everytime I come on here. What did John1 write earlier about on a break from life to DIS. That statement says it all!

From bingo to bananas this is going to be one heck of a trip!

Well guys, I am going to be MIA for the day tomorrow . . .

I know it breaks your hearts as much as it breaks mine (I will be the one pages and pages behind). I will be at a labor law seminar for work, and to get some CLE credit for my license. It should be a thrilling day.

It is put on by the law firm that handles our negotiations, and about 1,000 people attend every year, from all over the country. One year, they even had Jerry Springer as the lunch speaker.

I need to go offline now. I am into this cool book and I also have a netflix movie I need to see the end of so I can return it tomorrow. Which to do - hmm - Of course I can watch the movie and because the book is on my iPod I can bring that to bed and listen comfortably there. Yeah sounds like a plan.

I took DME last October, but did not receive my tags, due to delivery method. It took over 7 hours to get my bags, lol. This time I will have tags, so maybe just 5 hours to get my bags.

We had horrendous winds here today. Our freestanding canopy in our backyard flew across the yard, (probably tumbled over and over) and wound up next to the fence (about 40 feet away)... knocking over everything in its path, and shattering the glass top patio table. I guess we should be lucky it didn't flip over the fence into the neighbor's yard.

That canopy was over $300 and we've only had it since August :( It's all bent up now. It gets windy sometimes but it's never been bad enough to blow stuff like this around, ugh.

[MrsMork]

Yes, he called at 7:45 am Monday to tell me that he had to go to MD that afternoon for the week. If things didn't start hitting the fan it would be better. I tried calling him. He will be home Friday night but we wont be able to discuss anything until Saturday. I am praying that the kids don't get suspended tomorrow...that will only make it worse. Yesturday when they were fighting with my friend's DS they were on school grounds. A talk DS had today with the counselor about other things brought that "disagreement" up. I never thought that it could affect them all that way since it wasn't during school. I am praying that nothing else is done about it. :(
Oh man! We will put you and the kids in our prayers for sure, Lisa. Let us know how it turns out. :grouphug:

No sense in running to the hamocks both days we are on CC - -


We just get all the kids together for a friendly game of bingo, and the "winners" get more than a trinket or other item of value, but get to stay all week on CC to hold the hamocks for the adults.

Are kids allowed on CC all week? We could leave some of the bananas so they won't go hungry.

Halloween Corners Game (Good for ages 3 - 8)

Stick up large Halloween themed pictures (ie witch, bat, ghost and black cat) in the four corners of a room. Play some music and when it stops, each child runs to a corner (if you have small numbers you can limit the number of children in each). The music operator without looking then calls out one corner. The kids in that corner are out. The last person left is the winner.

They do that at our skating rink with numbers! The kids love it! :thumbsup2

We came home one afternoon after a high wind day (was it Isabel?) and found that our glass patio table (with umbrella) was dragged across the deck, slammed up against the deck railing, the umbrella flipped upward and destroyed, and the glass part of the table was obliterated into thousands of shards that flew to the ground, 10 feet below into the grass.

I feel as though I wasted my brain watching that pathetic movie. I think the only people on earth that would find it to be a good movie are 13 year old boys! My DH and I both thought it was totally useless. I gave up valuable Dis time for that!!!!

I think the only reason I watched it at all was the guy from Napolean Dynamite was in it....<gosh>.

Personally I would be picking the Outback over goulash...but hey...that is just me! http://www.wdisneyw.com/forums/images/smilies2004/eat.gif

Umm...yeah. Queensland Chicken and Shrimp with a starter course of Cheese Fries. Washed down with a Yngling Lager....

When I used to travel for work, we would book our hotels and flights and stuff and always find the closest Outback to our hotel...it was our official restaurant for all out of town travel. :rolleyes1

[GoofyforGoofy]

Me too! I never get to see the youtube things. It bogs down my connection. It really is a shame!

Sounds like someone needs a CD of YouTubes Greastest hits for Xmas....

OK, people, what do you say....send links to good videos, etc and someone maybe the GoofyCrew, could burn a CD for the Dialup-ers...

Who puts BAKED BEANS on a baked potato? :eek: That just sounds like one of the worst food combinations ever! For that matter cottage cheese doesn't sound too good either. :sad2:

Actually refried beans (the low fat ones) sounds like a tasty idea.... Hmmm i may have to try that....... But cottage cheese Yuck....

She said Baked Beans, not refried beans. Beans are not beans. I know beans. How about Limas? Would you put Limas on a potato, would ya? would ya? ..yeah, didn't think so. :p

Beans, beans, the magical fruit...

Let's see now. Angie lives in Oregon and I really liked the NW went I lived there. She does not have preschoolers roaming around her house so I am betting it is quiet. She cooks and I bet she would even understand my DIS addiction. I'm THERE!!!! :thumbsup2

Off to misbehave some more so I can get sent to Angie's!!! :yay:


Lots to catch up on....

...so Angie's inviting us all to Oregon.

[BuzzBoyMom]

Yes, he called at 7:45 am Monday to tell me that he had to go to MD that afternoon for the week. If things didn't start hitting the fan it would be better. I tried calling him. He will be home Friday night but we wont be able to discuss anything until Saturday. I am praying that the kids don't get suspended tomorrow...that will only make it worse. Yesturday when they were fighting with my friend's DS they were on school grounds. A talk DS had today with the counselor about other things brought that "disagreement" up. I never thought that it could affect them all that way since it wasn't during school. I am praying that nothing else is done about it. :(


Wow - Lisa. What's happening?!! Hope all is okay. Do you mean that fight might get them suspended?

Speaking of receiving things ..... shouldn't we be getting our docs soon? Whoever gets theirs first had better yell. I know that I will! :Pinkbounc :woohoo: :cloud9:

Just this grandma's opinion, but I think we have gone WAY to far with the "no tolerance" c**p. Kids are going to be kids, there are going to be squabbles and occasionally a push or a shove. They get consequences for that and learn proper behavior, but suspending from school at the drop of a hat is obsurd. IMHO.
One of DG's friends was attacked by another kid (this is HS, NOT elementary) and refused to defend himself because he knew he would get suspended if he "fought". He took several punches because he is a very good student and good kid and did not want to risk having a suspension on his record. He was able to get hold of the kid's hands and hold him after a few punches, and they were even threatening to suspend him for THAT!! Now you got me going!

I heard on the radio this morning that our local HS has the number one team in the state in water polo for BOTH the boys and girls teams! :cheer2: Go Newberg! :cheer2: We have not won one football game, but water polo and wrestling they are great! :cheer2:

You bring up a very good point! What is the victim supposed to do?? Heck, it sounded like Kaitlyn was trying her best to protect her brother!

Cruise fever is starting to infect the whole family except for Allie who really does not understand what is in store for her just yet. ;) Nathan keeps asking how many days and I love to see his reactions as he realizes that it won’t be too much longer before we are on the Mickey Boat again. His excitement is contagious. I did tell him about Samantha and Haley (Vanessa’s girls) and how we would be eating dinner with them on the Mickey Boat. I was able to show him the pictures on our website and that excited him even more. He loves that they have been to WDW and on the Mickey Boat before too – just like him. :yay:

We leave in exactly six weeks!!! I know several of you actually have even less time before you leave. I am going to be an absolute mess within a few more weeks. It still does not seem real a lot of the time.

Angie's just so nice! :teeth: I don't share with non DISers though. Some guy walked past the hammock I was enjoying about 11 am one year and made some comment about people who get there early then don't let others use the hammock. I managed to open one eye and told him perhaps he should get out of bed earlier. :rolleyes:
