Lurkyloo Does WDW: Solo Banzai Run for PassPorter’s Decade of Dreams!

[lurkyloo]

Today/Yesterday's Cake Pic of the Day is Sprinkles cupcakes, in my opinion THE best looking cupcakes out there. I don't get why most bakeries' cupcakes look like a second grade bake-sale offering. Sprinkles' are so classy.... and classily delicious! Also, huge.

Enjoy!

...Like that! Yeah, just lick the screen, get electrocuted, and don't eat real cake!

You can do it! Just lick the computer screen and know that in 27 days your pants button will be ricocheting off an unsuspecting passerby.

Electro shock therapy for dieting. Interesting...

We keep joking around that we will need our buffet pants in WDW. And I said I was going to eat so much that I hoped I didn't take an eye out with any flying buttons.... GMTA

Hmmmm, maybe I should have bought an empire waist dress....

Well, on the first day of our 2 Haunted Mansions, 1 Day trip I made the sweeping declaration that I would never stay at Pop again just cuz they wouldn't give us a King-size bed, but here I am going back again.... Somehow I got the idea in my head (achooootheDISooooooo!) that it's the best Value resort...

Oh great! Now I have another TR to read! Well at least this time I don't have to worry about waiting on updates I guess! I better get cracking. I got work to do. l8r.

 

[PopArtGal]

omg....I love cupcakes so much.

I am dying to eat one of those!!!

 

[KristinAnne]

[OhioDisneyLover]

Great minds think alike!

I'm killing myself too! I wish I could get some Sprinkles, but I don't feel like standing in line for 30 minutes...

Totally! I think that car just set me up to be grateful for whatever I get from now on....

Yes, reading old trip reports has the wonderful benefit of instant gratification. So far, I've worked my way through about 3 of your childhood trips in the last few days!

omg....I love cupcakes so much.

I am dying to eat one of those!!!

You and me both!

Loving these cake pictures! I need some!!

I keep saying it, but no one listens: The DIS needs Smell-O-Vision!

I'm in too. Man I love me some cake!

Whohoo! A fellow cake lover (pie lovers also accepted )

I can't wait to hear all about this upcoming trip. I loved your other trip reports!! And all the cakes!

 

[A-T-G]

Oh Carrie! (imagine that being said in the same way you say "Oh Patrick!" when jefe has crossed a line, and you'll "get" my tone). How could you follow that scrum-deli-icious Susiecakes confection with a picture of SPRINKLES cupcakes! You are too, too cruel!

 

[lazydoxy66]

I really should stop reading this a 2 AM. Must have cupcakes!

 

[ampooh]

I think I need that slogan cross-stitched on a pillow...


sounds like a new project

 

[tiggersam00]

Totally on board for this one! And the cake pics are making me very hungry. If you are a cupcake gal you need to come to Boston for a cupcake from Kicka$$ Cupcakes in Somerville... they are heavenly here are some to drool over in LA lol!

Thanks! I think I'm getting kind of a reputation about the cake...

Perhaps this pre-trippie should come with a warning!

Ooh, that is tough - unless someone's invented the all-night cupcakery!

Whoa - great cupcakes! I can't believe I visited my aunt in Somerville TWICE and she never told me about this place! And now she's moved away!

OK, so, this is only a four-day trip, and I really want to try not to check any bags this time. I'm the type who could fit four days' worth of clothes into a backpack and be fine - what gets me is the toiletries. I am the Queen of Skin Care Products! Before TSA instituted its ban on liquids in carryons, this was not a problem. I traveled everywhere with just a carryon. But now I seem to always have to check a bag cuz there's no way I can get all of my toiletries into 3-oz bottles inside a single Ziploc bag.

But since I am going to be gone just 4 days this time, I think I might be able to do it. Most of the junk I use can be put into tiny little travel containers and crammed into one of those new quart-size Ziplocs with the gusset at the bottom.

But what about sunscreen? 3 oz. of sunscreen for 4 days ain't gonna cut it! Also, body butter/lotion/whatever you call it. I'm a tall gal - I got a lotta surface area to cover! At this point, those are the only two things I can think of that I need more than 3 oz. of....

Any suggestions? I'm thinking about shipping myself some sunscreen along with the usual order of bottled waters, except I can't find a place online that sells both so I can get it all in one box. Alternatively, I could just stop at Walgreens outside WDW and buy this stuff, but then I see that taking up valuable time between getting off the plane and meeting Jensey that I could be SLEEPING!

So, I'm open to ideas. How do you all do it? Go low-maintenance and skip the skincare? Or do you just bite the bullet and check bags?


******************

In other news, here is today's Cake of the Day. Back to SusiesCakes (I couldn't resist!).

The frosting is strawberry crazy2, but otherwise, this is the most perfect-looking cake ever! It's hard to tell in this pic, but they stir colored sprinkles into the cake batter. And I'll bet I could get them to make it with vanilla frosting that's pink....

 

[Lorelei528]

ummm...Carrie-

What kind of Sunscreen do you use? There's a reason why I'm asking, but I can't tell you right now...

Let me know....I have an idea...

 

[Lorelei528]

oh! And the body butter/lotion too...just let me know what brand/type...again, cannot tell you at this time why I'm asking but a lightbulb has gone off in my head....

 

[Disneygrl36]

I love the look of the latest c-o-t-d...........yummy!!!!
Can't help with the packing. I am a horrible over-packer.

 

[Sleeping*Beauty]

Why don't you ask Jensey to pick some up for you??
