WOW! That was a fun NOT response for this and the last post!

It's actually a cake mix...white wings...with added banana mash and choc chips.
I find white wings pretty good. Even my wonderful grandma used them growing up. (and she was a great cook)
But I have to try and find her rice pudding and sago plum pudding recipes

Luvchefmic · 08-06-2010, 09:09 AM

I don't want to see anymore cake.....no more talk...Sharon plans...continue....

franandaj · 08-06-2010, 02:07 PM

Sooooooo......

Has your DH decided if he going to fly United or United?

Thanks! I've never thought about adding extras to the cake mix! But what a fantastic idea!

DH is still thinking about United or United. The problem is that Qantas just announced a deal; so he's going to have another look this week....give or take a month.

I couldn't cope with that kind of relaxed attitude!!!
Good luck!!

DH has promised to book his Orlando flights by the end of this week.
Translation: MAYBE by the end of this month (NOT guaranteeing the year

).

DisneyFirefly · 08-09-2010, 04:36 AM

You should get one of these and poke him with it until he books his airfare:

PrincessInOz · 08-09-2010, 04:38 AM

WARNING: This post may be considered offensive to some readers. No bean was hurt in the posting and no offensive is intended (at least NOT much

).

Whenever I visit the US, I end up completing a detox program. NOT one of my choosing; but one enforced on me by the coffee served in the US.

(Disclaimer: The exception to this rule is Cafe Corbas, Hayes Valley, San Francisco. http://www.hayesvalleyshop.com/stores/cafeCorbas.html

Most of the time, when I buy coffee anywhere in the US, more than half of the cup invariably ends up down a Chute like this.

NOT that I am particularly fond of it, but through experience, I've found that the McDonald's equivalent of coffee:

suddenly becomes palatable to my tastes after 2 days. And ordering a double decaf soy milk latte becomes (not) my brew of choice!
Don't get me wrong.....we do have this chain in Australia; but it is not somewhere that Aussies automagically go for their java pick-me-up in the morning.

So entrenched is coffee in Melbourne, that a good friend of mine moved their laundry out of their house; and installed the Magic Cafe instead.

Therefore, I am posting my favourite SHOTS so that when I get to WDW, I will be able to find 2 examples and only dream....(not).....

Latte

Capuccino

Both of which, I am happy to have with a lamington!

I hope to add at least 3 other types of coffee examples to this post. So, watch this space!

PrincessInOz · 08-11-2010, 05:14 AM

Still no movement on DH's flight plan....

I so (not) wanna hand over money to an airline right now.....ANY airline....but will have to wait a bit longer. It's just as well that I've had years of practise at playing (not) patience with DH.

Ah well......still at the drawing board.

DisneyFirefly · 08-11-2010, 05:27 AM

If it makes you feel any better, I realized today that I can't buy my airfare for a month

It occurred to me that I only have three paychecks between now and when my final payment is due, and this next one (Friday) has to go to another obligation. So I can't buy my airfare until the end of September

Hopefully there'll be a good sale or something.

Fingers crossed for both of us.
