A great big pickle...sigh.

[Piglets Mommy]

Until tomorrow, at least?!

 

[LuvvsMickey]

Hey you guys! Knock it off! I'm in the middle of a serious pickle here. Give the girl some slack... eh?

 

[Grace&Carolinesmom]

Speaking of hungry... whose idea was the grilled tomato and swiss samich? I tried that the other day, and it is delish!

That was me I told ja they were delish! I get a hankerin for those sandwiches all winter as it is a good way to eat winter tomatoes that aren't as flavorful as summer maters. now summer maters....gotta love a simple tomato sandwich with miracle whip, salt, and pepper. MMmmm....

Only 76 here today...but thunderstorms (woke up to a lightening storm this morning and pouring rain by the time I left for the office). But next week, starting on Father's Day, we start hitting the wonderful 80's.

You folks have REALLY been gettin the rain lately in IL. It's always such a tease up here. Big thunder storms that peter out just before they reach us or they form just past us. Sigh.

I did I did I did! So far, I have Boma's, 'Ohana's and Planet Hollywood. I'm on the fence with Narcoossee's.

OMG! LOVE LOVE LOVE Narcooses..or however you spell that....Best food, fabulous bartenders, great waitstaff, beautiful views...what's not to love?



I missed so much over the past 24 hours or so. You guys have been so chatty. I was hugging the porcelain god as I had a bad seafood and crab sub Not fun. Won't be ordering that sucker at the sub shop anytime soon...

R/E the Poly, we love it there. I like the dark room decor as I find it soothing after a day of in-your-face at the parks. The tropical plantings, the sandy beaches, the tiki torches, the laua music, the smell of wood burning from Ohanas...just heavenly. We really dig the food at CCs too. With that said, however, we are contemplating our next stay to be YC. The girls are getting old enough that I wouldn't be crazy paranoid about them if we got seperated at SAB and I would enjoy being able to vary our food offerrings by walking to Epcot often. Although for a budget trip I would consider CSR b/c of the food and queen beds.

OK-I am rambling. I will stop now.

And which pickle would that be? Girl friend, you got LOTS of pickles in all kinds of jars...kosher, dill, bread and butter, sweet, relish, pickled maters, pickled okra, pickled sprouts, pickled aparagus, chow-chow, hot pepers, banana peppers, ........need I go on


(snicker, giggle, snicker)

 

[LuvvsMickey]

Mmmm... bread and butter pickles....

 

[KatMark]

Now you got her going again with food!

 

[LuvvsMickey]

I think she was "definite" when she said it? Calling Luvvsmickey--is this definite?

YEP! Now I am in a pickle trying to decide how many nights for each and do I do Poly first or CSR first. Do I get QSD or TSD, one at the first and not the second, but then that depends which one we're staying at first. Right? I just don't know!

Makes me hurt just to think about it. Hope you are recovered.

Start with CSR, and then upgrade. I think a downgrade might color your first impression of CSR. And I would do QS at 1 resort, and TS at the other if they will let you. That way you can eat at your TS restaurants, but still save a few bucks with QS meals... unless you have so many TS restaurants that you are going to be in 1 a day anyway... then stay with TS the entire trip.

Sorry....

Ugh! I hope you are feeling better now!

Mmmm... bread and butter pickles....

Hmmm....you aren't eating Ice Cream with those Pickles are you???

I'd do CSR first...I'd save the Poly for the end....Pepper Market seems to be a great deal when on the Dining plan...Maybe do the QS plan while there and regular DDP at the Poly. As for how many days, that's tougher...I guess it depends on how many days you are considering at each park....Poly will be very convenient for your MK and Epcot days, due to the monorail. For the other parks and DTD, you are on busses no matter where you stay.

 

[LuvvsMickey]

Now I'm all confused and I have a headache. I think I need food.

And no, I am not knocked up. Good gravy Marie.

Gosh, I hope not!

I agree with the others. Start with CSR first and then move to the Poly to end the trip. I think this is absolutely PERFECT!

 

[Minnie&Nana]

Gotta agree - start with CSR then move to Poly. While CSR is gorgeous, it is a moderate, so better to begin there and move up, so to speak.

Think you've found the perfect balance.

....now could ypu please you figure how I rid myself of this weird green tinge????

 

[LuvvsMickey]

I'm sure not feeling balanced. I can't figure out how many days at each one and whether to get dining. The site is being finicky and now I am getting cranky.

Unfortunately, the only cure is a healthy dose of Florida sunshine. I'm feeling a little blue myself!

I would call and let them help you figure it all out in person. I always get frustrated with the website when trying to do anything the least little bit complicated.

I just polished off three grilled cheese and onion sammiches. On Weight Watchers bread, of course. Yeah, I eat when I am stressed.

 

[Minnie&Nana]

In the spirit of camaraderie, I had a nice sized bowl of low salt natural popcorn...drenched in real butter, of course...but I had water, not soda with it!!

I still think KatMark had a great idea about a girls only trip - we'll all deserve one after LuvvsMickey gets back.

 

[Minnie&Nana]

My gosh, I just realized the dates on Toby's "In Memory" are icon are wrong!! I gave her the wrong birth year!!

...sigh...

 

[LuvvsMickey]

Hardy har har! No one appreciates the stress I am under right now. This is HUGE peoples! Tracy is flippin' out up here!

 

[Grace&Carolinesmom]

Sigh...I have a big ol pot of spaghetti sauce with sweet italians cooking on the stove and soon I will start boiling the water for some rigatoni noodles. I am so freakin ready for real, tasty, stick to my ribs food. My stomach is feelin a little...weird...so it better stay down I want to eat it ssooooooo bad.


Yeah--gotta go CSR then Poly. How many days are you going to be at WDW? I forgot. I think you NEED at least 3 nights at the Poly and any more is just pure gravy.

 

[Minnie&Nana]

....and 3 ngts at Poly will feel more like 5.
