If a child refuses to nap are they guilty of resisting a rest?

Great pull up a chair. Non news?? Lets see we may have a bar in TOT, a " maybe jungle booked themed, sort of evening hours, AK interim not rivers of light thingy" which may or may not involve canoes. A&E is making progress. We get cupcakes with fireworks. And huge discussions about after hour parties.

Closer to the Lounge, we seem to be dog people, we like Captain America more than Batman vs Superman, we spend way too much time on the DIS and other sites (yeah like I totally forgot my wedding anniversary yesterday but I did have time to check in here) Oh and I am jonesing for the new all black starwars D&B bags.

See we misunderstood Disney we are all supposed to be asleep until we AWAKEN the SUMMER, silly spring time DISers jumped in too early.

And now the fall and Holiday DISers are awating party prices.

But us loungers are chillin and checking out the Savoy Cocktail book for our signature 1930's era drink.

Some of us are also waiting for fall free dining to drop. The wait and chatter there is keeping me busy while also waiting for ROL to be "finished".

As for cocktails.... so last Christmas my husband and I sat at the bar and tried the signature cocktails in Jock Lindsey Hangar Bar, Morimoto, and on the outside dock bar at the Boathouse all in the same night. It was so fun! That may have been of of my favorite nights this past Christmas. And just to let you know.... the Hangar Bar was our absolute favorite of the 3 new restaurants / bars!

I'll have to try it. I hope it's good. I'm originally from Montreal, home of poutine. Admittedly, a bit picky about my poutine.

All of them sound pretty yummy--looking forward to trying all kinds of exciting new foods!

For those interested, "classic" poutine is made of french fries (usually medium cut fresh potato fries) topped with cheese curds and gravy (typically from chicken stock). It totally hits the spot. Here's pic of a classic poutine:

Gourmet poutines have evolved by adding "something" onto the traditional poutine, like spaghetti sauce, smoked meat, chili, sausage, etc.

Montrealers take their poutine seriously. In fact, there are many websites rating the best poutine in town.

I LOVE poutine, and the only way I can get my fix is our very rare trips to Montreal. :-(
Unfortunately, there is no where to buy cheese curds in our area (CT) so I am poutineless most of the time. We have dear friends from a little north of Montreal and when they next visit there have promised to bring me back some curds so I can make my very own poutine! I even like Montreal McDonald's poutine!
The other Canadian food I love is nanaimo bars! Be still my heart! We used to have a Tim Horton's that sold them, but alas, they are no longer in CT. So sad! :-(

@ConnecticutNonna Next time you're in Montreal, try poutine at La Banquise. The best you will ever have.

Just checking in and I see the news about Daily Poutine! I will definitely have to check this out in July.

And I second the above recommendation for Poutine in Montreal. We went La Banquise two years ago and it was the best ever!!!

So while all you guys have been excited about Poutine I was more excited about a S'more Crepe! Looks like DS is trying to make it a more "must do" kind of place with all the offerings. I actually have us going there a couple evenings in August - Morimoto just to say I did it.
Of course that was before all the night time offerings for the summer were announced. Better make sure I have a plan before FP+ window opens up!

Poutine with a S'more crepe for dessert. Problem solved!

To all you RoL board folks who have bought pins and/or tee shirts, are any of you going to be around December 11 - 18? It would be fun to wave hi!

I haven't bought one yet. I probably will, but we've been dealing with medical issues and are not totally sure we'll be going . Currently our dates are 12/3-12/13.

So sorry about your health issues! Sending you pixie dust so that you can go!
