Hi Melanie! I'm sorry that you can't join us with the gluttony. You get to be a glutton after I return home. Yes, poor Donald. We wish to enjoy his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. Ffft ffft ffft ffft ffft!

Thanks, Lyn!

Cool! I am not posting a live report, as I don't have a laptop. But I have free internet in my room, go figure. I think TDC Nala might bring hers for a live report, though.

I'm tweeting live...does that count?? I'm not bringing my laptop, but my boyfriend has the iPhone, so we set up my twitter account on it!

FYI - if anyone is interested, I updated the map I had made with the pricing information:

Hey Max Rebo! Thanks for the map! I saw it on the festival thread, too.

And...I do have the iPhone, but I will not be using it to update live.

Sounds like this is going to be an entertaining report! We won't be at the F&WF until 2010, so I'm looking forward to reading all about the fun you all are going to have this year.....

Thank you, CarolAnn! I wish I could come up with my own rating system, as my friends seem to have very clever ones of their own.

Off topic: I love your Disney wedding photos in your signature! They are gorgeous.

 

[BriarRosie]

I made some changes to my schedule, which I updated to my first post.

I added a new item to my October 14th review. I'm going to have a late...REALLY late dinner at the Kona Sushi Bar with Oybolshoi and her husband, Guy Incognito. They're having dessert first at the Wishes Dessert Party.

And I added a link to my first page with a current live food report by ImprovGal. She's got a great "food burlesque" going.

Thank you! It was actually our Vow Renewal for our 25th Anniversary. We had an amazing day.

Just had to say I love the thread title...and will have to make due with pictures of the lovely food and drink porn as I am unable to go this year. (My evil sisters had the nerve to go without me, so I'll get to look at their pics too.) Enjoy!

Yeah, you must have married when you were 6 years old.

I will try to take decent photos. If I don't, I will just direct you to the food pictures taken by the other DISers at the same events I've attended!

And for the record, I updated my first post with a ratings system similar to what TDC Nala used with The Simpsons. Mine is based on Sleeping Beauty, so check out my first post again to catch the SKUMPS! Rating System™.

 

[disneyfav4ever]

I like the rating system. I think I'll steal the idea and use one for my dining reviews as well, maybe with Ratatouille pics.

 

[Disneygrl36]

Lori I love your Sleeping Beauty rating system. So cute.

Yeah, we're all stealing Catherine's idea.
I think a Ratatouille rating system would be cute.

Lori I love your Sleeping Beauty rating system. So cute.

Thanks, Melanie! I debated whether or not to use it, but I like the idea of rating the items.

 

[D&R love Disney]

That has me

[AngVT]

I'm already going to call us the Food Porn Paparazzi. Imagine how much the other diners at the events will love us as we shout at the food, "Work it!"

OMG!!!! This had me going... DD came over and started also!!!! Thank you, I needed that!

Naturally, there will be a Friendy-Scout oath as well:

On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to eat around World Showcase
And to imbibe the alchoholic squishies;
To help other Friendies at all times;
To keep myself full of booze, full of food, and full of good humor.

This is hysterical!!! Thank you! DD saw this too, and busted a gut! She doesn't know about "meat butter" so she didn't get the soylent green stuff.... but I did!!! LOL!
