High School
I've said it before and I'll say it again- My husband is a gastronomical wet blanket.
Happy Birthday Jamie!
Cathy
You are smack dab between my two DDs then! One graduated from HS in '96 and one in '04.
Just remember, he is your wet blanket!
He's actually pretty good about food things with me. Like if I cook something he'll say "I can tell this is wonderfully made, but for me I don't like it". So he has the tact thing down. now he does anyways And if I want fancy food I go out with my brother.
Hey Cathy ... are you going to come back from your F&W trip and share the food porn and loving details with us?
and the ginger was not obvious at all. I was surprised Rick went for it with the teryaki steak was available. I like ginger as long as it isn't to strong and I could just taste a hint of it.

Happy Birthday, Jamie!
I celebrated by having some new cheese that I bought yesterday.
Cypress Grove's Truffle Tremor (definitely not for Brenda) rocks.
It's a goat cheese with a lot of mushroom flavor.
Cowgirl Creamery's Mt. Tam Triple Cream.
Yum. It's like eating butter.
I am sure that you look much younger than your age!! 
Her mother really wanted to eat lamb's lettuce during her pregnancy and her father got caught stealing it from the bad witch. That way the girl ended up with such a strange name! A slight bit of food porn...
For some reason I am very much into beer right now and wine has taken a back seat. One of my favorite breweries is Southern Tier in New York and in the past couple of weeks I have thoroughly enjoyed their
Both are full-bodied and the creme brulee is dessert in a bottle! I was also served a tasting of the Creme Brulee mixed with their Cherry Saison (which I don't like on its own) and it tasted like a Tootsie Roll. Our Capital Ale House has been very adventurous lately!
Last night, Kristin's best friend gave me a bottle from the Founder's Brewing Company in Michigan. She knew that I like their
It was BIG. It is a double chocolate, coffee, oatmeal stout. I felt like I could chew it. It is not something I would pick every day but I did enjoy it.
Back with some more food porn.
After a day at the Space Center, Ron Jon's Surf Shop and Cocoa Beach we went to DTD for some shopping and dinner. We decided to try T-Rex and sat at the very cool Shark Bar.
I had a blue margarita YUM!
Rick had the Mega Mes-O-Bones and I had the Boneyard Buffet. The ribs were excellent and the chicken was good! We had a great bartender and made friends with others at the bar. It was a good time
Next night we had dinner at Kona. It's been years since I ate there for dinner and we had a very nice meal with good service. Once again we couldn't do dessert
Started with bread, I really like the macademia butter.
We had the sticky wings for an appetizer. They were really good, I think Rick had about 8 of them
Rick had the ginger crusted ribeye which he enjoyed.
I had the teryaki strip steak, I thought it was to come with mashed potato but it had rice. The rice was good but Rick's potatoes were much better. I started to cut into the steak before taking a picture
I also had another blue margarita.
We enjoyed our dinner at Kona and made it back to BLT in time to pour a drink and head up to Top of the World lounge for Wishes.
Our last dinner was at Wolfgang Puck Express. Old faithful, the rosemary chicken with garlic mashed potato. This is the one meal I've eaten at Disney more times than any other since we seem to go there every trip for a quick meal. I had a glass of chardonney, it was okay, nothing to write about!
A nice weekend of eating at Disney! We used the DDE (I hate calling it Tables in Wonderland) and saved a good amount of money. It was well worth the cost of the card, I got 3 trips on this card!
Well, I just looked at the pictures posted on Facebook of dh's high school class reunion last week (my class was invited, too, but he just went to the get together after the football game). All I can say is DO I LOOK THAT OLD, TOO????? I didn't even recognize most of these people and I went to school with them for 6-12 years!! Man, I hate getting older.
By the way, today is my 42nd birthday. Think that has anything to do with it?!
too dark at the bar.
Goodness, that would be hard see posts right now. Sending hugs your way.
Michelle, first off, I'm so sorry you had to cancel your cruise!
And thank you so much for posting this link. I read trip reports all the time, but I hadn't seen this one at all. I was getting on here to gripe about Disney's dining page being down, worried would it work Wed., blah, blah, blah. This really puts all that in perspective. Thanks, Michelle!
- yesterday at sail away time I just had to walk away from the computer... and some are posting on FB from the cruise... so I hope it will get better as the week goes on...

boy did I have to edit the name of this beer and the label!!!
and figured I would also like this:

Thanks for all the well wishes, I'm keeping my food iced and elevated. I'm off to the Big E next weekend (Eastern States Exposition, basically the state fair for all of New England) and I'll be doing lots of walking.
Kathy I'm so sorry
Michelle thats got to be so hard
- ice that food... you'll feel better... )Your hubby doesn't drink beer??? That is so against the stereotype I don't even know what to think. Tell me more 'cuz I'm intrigued, especially since he's originally from this area. I thought everyone born in Missouri had beer flowing through their veins along with the blood.

I tried to win the "I still look like I did in high school" contest, but that went to Therese McVeigh cause she looked EXACTLY like her high school picture - even after having TWINS the month before... 
Happy Birthday
Also, I only graduated in 2000 and when I look at people on facebook I can't recognize 1/3 of my graduating class and even my former BFFs all look different to me. It could also be because I've blocked most of those years from my mind by now.
I officially start my new job tomorrow. The best part is instead of driving an hour to get to work it will be 10 minutes!
