Lisa - what time should we arrive? That sounds so GOOD@!!!!!

I am pretty excited too....I hope I am not all thumbs when the witching hour strikes!

5pm...and I ALWAYS overcook (must be the Greek/Italian in me). The thought of not having enough food for my guest is terrifying.

The Smarties one always bugs my mother. She is a Canadian who is now living in the US. Our Smarties are the ones in the link above, however, what she gets when she asks for Smarties are what we call "Rockets".

So now it begs the question - which "smarties" does Holly love?

That would be the 2nd one, your "Rockets". I never even knew about the other kind until this group enlightened me a while ago.


HORRIBLE internet connection today, so I doubt I'll be able to post more. Couldn't even connect all day! So if I disappear, you'll know why.

When I faxed the list to request ladies tea and couples tea, they called me back and basically said it's impossible to accommodate our requests and they suggested that we all book individually for the same date. So we're all doing ladies tea on 5/18. We did not pick a date for couples tea because if we're doing the ladies tea we can't reserve more than once in advance. We'll wait until we're on the boat to book the couples tea. If you would like we can set a date and everyone can try to get the same date. Pick one!

I'm ok with playing it by ear since we really want to the the brunch (thought it might be fun to do with other couples but ok with us to do on out own if nothing is set) and I don't know how interested DH will be with tea...I'd like to try it because I want to do everything but who knows how that is going to go.

Michelle East Coast Smartie Queen

Holly Mid-West Smartie Queen

Nan West Coast Smartie Queen

We are on the cruise having a meet, kinda like the party of nine...(POC III) (pieces of eight) we are the party of three, Smarties Party of Three I feel a t-shirt coming on....

I am on the blackberry and I have not admitted this yet but I am addicted to smarties. "My name is Lisa and I have not had a smartie in 7 hours"

My DH had a meeting the other day and they gave out smarties and dumdum pops!

that is me in a nutshell!! Even nightly I cook too much!

That would be the 2nd one, your "Rockets". I never even knew about the other kind until this group enlightened me a while ago.

forgot to mention Holly.....congrats on PIF. Let us know Tyler's reaction!

Have you ever been to a party where that happens...it's the worst and I always feel so embarrassed for the hostess. DH laughs at me every time we entertain. He says: EXACTLY how many people are coming tonight?! Because it looks like you're planning to feed the ARMY!

 

[GatorFamily]

thank you for saying what we were all thinking.

I think she is out of town...I hope she is ok with everything and that she did just pif it and can come When the PC cruise came out I talked to my DH he thought about it well by the time I got a maybe from him it was booked solid so I let him know what I thought and said well I did it the way you want and talk about it before a big purchase and look what happened so I told him if any come avail. I'll book first and talk later He was ok with that so that's exactly what I did

Have you or has anyone ever tried the sandals that crocs has? I bought two pairs after summer so I can't wear them until this spring/summer/cruise. I just want to know if you think they are as comfortable as the croc shoes. This will be my first attempt at wearing crocs because I think the shoes are ugly. The sandals look nice though. I hope they feel as good.

DD has a couple of the sandals and loves them. She wore them 4 power days at WDW in Dec and had NO foot or back pain. I wore my regular crocs and no pain for me either. And my feet are the weak point in my body. They are ugly but I would not wear anything else on a Disney day now.

We have been at dinner parties that that has happened and I say I don't want more when I really do because I feel bad...my DH laughs at me too and says the same thing but when its just us I usually make exactly enough(half of us usually have seconds DH and DS) because I know how much we eat and don't like leftovers every night because I forget about them and end up having to throw it away.

 

[GatorFamily]

all this talk makes me hungry ...going to prepare my troops a late lunch

 

[MrsMork]

the flip flops? I have a pair I've never really worn, I don't like things between my toes. I have friends who have them and like them.

When you wear crocs you throw all fashion sense out the window. For the megadays and on planes I even wear them with little socks, shhhhhh. As I get older I care less about looks than comfort, which is apparent.

I wore little socks from Costco with mine in Dec WDW days and they chewed little holes in the heels of the socks!! Oh well, they were comfortable and the socks are replaceable.

 

[HollyTyler]

OK....my crazy computer made a liar out of me again! Last time I said I couldn't keep a connection, I was on all night, now it's staying connected again when I thought it wouldn't. It's messing with me!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

did Noel cancel? Did we do something to make her mad?

The last interaction she had with us was her birthday at Fridays in Orlando with Monica.......so if she's mad at us it's all Monica's fault. Ha Ha Ha

One of her dinnermates recently said they checked the dinner reservation and she was still booked.

Don't know where she is and why she has not been back on here with us. I sure do hope she is ok. I am worried. It's been too long.
