Great photos! If I could fill my kitchen with Disney housewares items, I think that would make me ridiculously thrilled. Right now I'm attempting to add in a Mickey head bathroom rug...
If I had
two kitchens, I could have my Wilderness Lodge kitchen and an all out fun Mickey kitchen.
You are not weird! I'm sure we all have various Disney items around the house. Go for it!!! I think it sounds awesome!
Home Depot could indeed be a good meeting place. You could ask potential prospects for some help with your list. "Excuse me sir, do you know what a scraper thingy is?"
I always get such fun shopping ideas when checking in with you. This time the 40th anniversary magnet in the shape of the old paper tickets catches my eye. I remember having those! Can you imagine if we had to pull out a ticket every time we wanted to ride something now?
Have a great Sunday! I saw some of Anita's pictures on FB - looks like it was a lovely day!
I might just do it after the guys get finished with all of the work. The shower curtain is less than $20, so that wouldn't be an issue, but then I'd have to have new curtains for the one window and a new towel for 'display' and maybe a picture straight from Ziwadi.....
I've gotta think about this.
I remember the tickets, too. I think the first one we got was for seven tickets. It's been a looong time ago, though, so I can't be sure about that.
I was cracking up over your recounting of your Home Depot trip! There is definitely something to be said about finding a guy who could do home improvement stuff. He would be very nice to have around.
I think an AKL bathroom would be perfect -- of course, I might be biased because our bedroom and bathroom are definitely AKL-themed.
And tall, Jackie. For me, he's gotta be tall.
So if I need an AK fix, I can either go to the Nashville Zoo or come down and visit your house, right?
....so funny how you described the trip to Home Depot!
I never noticed all the rugged handy men before...I'm too busy roaming around like a lost puppy.
I get what I neeed and get out. (I do love the smell of all the wood. )
My DMom on the other hand could be in there for hours an hours.
I have to put a time limit on her sometimes if we are in a hurry...
The Mickey head paint chips do make the going in there more fun.
Glad the wallpaper part is done. I've heard that is a tough job.
I vote for the AK bathroom too! Go for it ....you know the girls would love it!
Awww, DIS shopping on a Sunday morning....makes getting ready for work a little easier.
I love the 40th Christmas ornament and the tees!
I need to try and get one of those 2011 notebooks before I go. The pen set is cool too!
I don't have any of the kitchen stuff except the Mickey egg thingy. (a poacher maybe?)
I just want to thank you again for posting all these great pics of merchandise!
It brings me so much joy to follow your TR's.
Arrr...off to work I go.
The flu I had middle week has turned into a head cold now....just great!
Everyone around here is having sinus issues. The trees are blooming everywhere with beautiful colors, but it wreaks havoc on the sinuses.
Glad you enjoyed the shopping trip this a.m.
Cracking up at your trip to Home Depot. I could see how a handy man would be useful to have around the house. I still have a hole in the wall by the garage that Ben was going to fix before the kids were born....almost 6 years ago.
Loving the Pop pictures and the shopping pictures...I've started a shopping list...could get me in trouble.
I have to confess I'm working real hard trying to convince Ben we should stay at Pop this summer instead of off sight....but I know it will come down to $. Your pictures really have me dreaming of Pop.
Well, tell Ben with the money he's saved from not fixing the wall, you can stay at Pop Century on your trip.
Then double punch him with saying you'd be willing to cut back
a little on the shopping while you're there.
I hope your Aunt Joan is on her way to a speedy recovery!
Love your Pop photos. Those Mickey kitchen tools are just too cute. If I cooked, I'd definitely buy some.
They are going to check the wound tomorrow and see when she can go home. She will have some home health care for a little while. Dawn said they pretty much told them the first day they weren't sure they would be able to save the leg, so anything better than that is a good thing.
Add me to the list for the ticket magnets.
Looks like they put up building right by the bridge. If they already had the check in desk, food court gift shop building up I wonder if those are rooms?
I guess we shall wait and see.
Maybe we can tell better in July what the buildings are all about. I hope they open the bridge, but since they'll officially be two different resorts now, they probably won't.
I finally made it to your new TR! Only 21 pages late, but I'm here! I just spent 9 days in the hospital with a nasty intestinal bacterial infection. I'm trying to get healthy enough for our trip to FL this coming Saturday with an overnight stay at POP on Sunday! We're visiting MK just for the day on Sunday and DD on Monday before returning to my brother's place in Tampa on Tuesday. We have to travel far for my kids to see their Uncle too!
Loving the new TR! Can't wait to meet all of you in the MK on Oct 1st! I'm walking/running in the F&W 5K (just like punkin!) so I hope to still be there in time!
So glad you are better! You deserve a Disney trip as a reward.
We'll be around all day on the 1st, so if we don't hook up in the morning, we'll find everybody a little later. Maybe we could plan an ice cream meet or a parade meet or something. We'll figure out something that works. Will you have hoppers? You could come to Epcot to ride Soarin' and/or Nemo with us.
Tinker Bell has red eyes. Freaky.
That's your girl. Didn't they consult you about her PR stuff?
Sadly, nothing. I was going to look for Vinylmations and I saw a couple of cute shirts, but I left without buying anything. I did decide that for my birthday, I want to start a charm bracelet, and there are some really, really cute Disney charms and beads, so I included some links to those when I emailed my mom some ideas.
I always love your shopping and early morning pictures. I can't wait to see the progress on the suites when you go back this summer. We will hopefully be going back next year, so I am really excited to see them for myself!
And soon, we'll be able to do more than stalk from across the pond. We can actually stay there!
ok...I wouldn't eat those chocolates, but I want all of the boxes! I suppose I could take photos of them and they could be a fun photo collage in the kitchen! And I love the picture with Imagination Movers on the TV! I always have that going when I'm getting ready in the mornings on my trips! Yes, even with no children around. There's one of them I think is rather handsome...
I guess I could just head to Home Depot to look for guys! Last year when we were doing the renovations on the house I went in there several times with lists and had no idea what the things on it were! They are very helpful there! But I didn't find a prince charming there either. I love the idea of having every room in the house themed after a Disney resort! If my family would let me get away with it, that's what I would do!
Maybe Home Depot could set up some kind of dating connection.
Depot Dating - Find your handyman here!
Love those measuring spoons. May need to bring some home with me in May.
I started a PTR (link in my sig). Would love to have you join me!
I did just that.
Well, it was your first day. My brain never works quite right on my first day But it was my 4th day, so I don't know what my excuse was
Those mugs never appeared at WL when I was there We have 4 of the old mugs now I think I'll make good use of them during my 25 minute commute to school next year
Yep - I keep one in the car all the time to fill up with water, and I have one by my bed for water, too. Your mug will make your school day brighter.
The measuring cups and spoons are adorable! I need to keep a list of what I want to buy next time I go to WDW because I know there were a bunch of things I wanted in your shopping pictures in the past and I forgot what they are now
So pretty.
It is probably best that you have forgotten. You saved money, I'm sure.
Another shopping update with MeMom! By now, I feel like we're shopping buddies.
I love the kitchen items. I see lots of stuff I'm going to have to ask for once we move into our new apartment in June!
Sunrise at Pop! I love those pics because it brings me back to our early mornings there as well.
Imagination Movers!! Such a cute show.
Didn't you love Everything Pop for some good shopping?
You will surely need some Disney kitchen things.
MeMom, thank you so much for your help with the pictures. I knew you were the perfect person to ask. They were exactly what I was looking for.
You are welcome. I guessed where they might be and found them fairly quickly.
Man, I go away to Tennessee for a week and come back to see you've started and are now on pge 22. All caught up now and can't wait for more! Poor Brooklyn withthe toilet! I had one that wouldn't stop flushing, not near as bad as Brooklyn's incident.
I've come across the eternal flushers, too.
How was Tennessee? It's very pretty here today.
WL is on my list of resorts to visit and eat at.
I love looking at the details of everything I didn't pay attention to when I worked at Pop. I don't think I ever took the time to stop and really enjoy the shadowboxes.
Those menu prices seem like a dream, a t-bone steak for 50 cents??? That would have been the life. lol
MeMom, you had me cracking up at your Home Depot adventure. I think a AKL bathroom would be a perfect addition. When we own our own home, I would love to have Disney touches all over the house. They will have to be subtle, since the boyfriend (future husband one day) thinks I go Disney overboard.
Those Valentine pins are so cute.
That's why the resort themes may be better - they're more subtle than just all out Mickey.
You worked right across from those shadowboxes and didn't pay any attention to them? When you go back as a guest, you can make up for that. Who still works there that worked there when you did? Maybe I can manage to get them in a picture for you.
