Chocolate Sorbet
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup very good cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups water
1/4 cup brewed espresso (1 shot)
11/2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (recommended: Tia Maria)
In a large saucepan, mix the sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in 2 cups water and the espresso. Cook over low heat until the ingredients are dissolved. Off the heat, stir in the coffee liqueur. Transfer to plastic containers and refrigerate until very cold.
Freeze the mixture in an ice cream freezer according to the manufacturer's directions. The sorbet will still be soft; place it in a plastic container and freeze for 1 hour or overnight, until firm enough to scoop.
That sounds yummy. I will have to try it. Thanks for sharing.
gotta love Madame Leota, tho! Crossing my fingers that someone somewhere will make tickers for us redheads!!
I am working on it!
lori - i didn't know you had eye surgery (or did i get turned around reading thru the thread? if so, ignore me, i'm an idiot). I've got to decide on Friday what i'm going to do/drops or laser

(i've cancelled it twice for emergencies-my better half is dragging me

)
We've never done a charactar breakfast (in order to get their keisters out of the sack) was thinking perhaps CMs or the Lilo & Stitch one
i luv stitch.
do you remember what sort of grub they serve? DH only eats bacon, ham, toast, fruit & sugar doughnuts for breakfast - so it's usually not cost effective...who doesn't like a good carby breakfast
I don't think you can go wrong with either. I love Chef Mickey's but we usually do it for dinner. It is the buffet type where you serve yourself. There is more of a choice there.
Here is their menu:
PREMIUM FRUIT BAR
Seasonal Melon and Fresh Fruit Display, Assorted Flavored Yogurts & More
CEREAL SELECTIONS
Almond Granola, Frosted Flakes, Fruit Loops, Cocoa Krispies, Hot Oatmeal, and Grits
BREAKFAST SPECIALTIES

PASTRY CHEF'S CREATIONS
Bagels, Chocolate Croissants, Muffins, Cinnamon Rolls, Rice Krispy Treats, Cheese Blintzes, Peach Cobbler, Brownies, Assorted Danish & More
Ohana with Lilo & Stitch is brought to your table and you have to ask for more of whatever you want. They bring different bread types but they are more sorta exotic, not doughnut types. They also bring a basket of fruits and a skillet with eggs, waffles, bacon, sausage, & potatoes.
Both are very good. Chef Mickeys has to be scheduled way in advance. Ohana is easier to book.
Lilo n stich breakfast The breakfast is platter not buffet,they bring a platter to your table but you can order extra of what you like.Bacon, sausage eggs,waffles , pancakes ,toast and the likes.
We have done that breakfast twice and it was really great.The character interaction is good,they give the kids instuments and they do a wee conga round the dining room.
We did CM last year and it was great too.the buffet was very good(PBJ pizza..yummm) and the boy just loved going and getting their own stuff.
I think I preferred the Lilo n Stich one cos it is in the Poly and the location and Dining room is nicer but the Boy loved CM's and wants to do it again next time.
We really like Ohana too. I like that they bring it to your table instead of having to go get it yourself.
After the first year you are on the boards, those Gay Days threads get old fast. When are Gay Days so I make sure I'm not there then... I just found out my reservations are during Gay Days, what should I do... I had the best trip during Gay Days... I had the worst trip during Gay Days...
For me, I try to avoid the high attendance days if at all possible. I went with Carol & Deb to MK on Gay Day years and years ago, before it was the big high profile event that it is now. None of us would go now because it is so friggin packed, not to mention that it has become something of a free for all. Where is that link, Lori, to what Pete had to say about it? I think he says it best.
Here it is:

Pete says it best. Also it is very crowded over that weekend.
That's great that you asked. Think it would help if more people asked? Let us know what happens.
It may help. It is a very small forum right now. Looks like they are really trying to get it to get started moving. I had a reply from the administrator this morning and they said they were going to work on more and could include Universal ones. They even asked for suggestions of what we would like. I think if we were to start posting over there kinda regular they would be even happier to do it for us.
I wanted to add anyone that would like to go to those forums or get a ticker can just click on mine. It will take you to the ticker page & there is a link for the forums at the top of the page.
