Morning all....checkin in from work....


Happy Birthday to Mary's Daughter!

Tinker-Tude (i love that name!)....HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ALSO!!!!

(i'm at work and can't utilize the kewl smilies :( )

WELCOME to our new peeps...ralph and brookelizabeth i think....(sorry, new peeps confuse me?? :headache: )

A sunny day here....cool too. What happened to summer :confused3

Hope everyone is enjoying their HUMP DAY :teeth: (as Tracie would say ;) )
 

Todd - The Cowboy & The Captain looks very nice. Thanks for the link. It looks like it would cost about the same as Le Cellier too. Maybe we should do it instead.

So do you have any other recommendations for places to eat that the locals frequent?
What kinds of food do you like? I like Joe's Crab Shack and Logan's Roadhouse which are in the tourist areas. I also enjoy Firehouse Subs and Bubbalou's. I can tell you a few places I go but I don't think you'd ever find them. :rotfl2:
 
I can find anything! We like steak, Mexican, Italian (but not fancy Italian), BBQ, & good old American comfort food.

We will not eat Chinese, Japanese, or Greek.

Captain and The Cowboy will take care of most of those you listed. I LOVE Italian and one of the best places I've found is Positano's...very good pizza, pasta portions are pretty big and salads are definately filling. Bubbalou's and Sonny's are the two big BBQ places here but I like Bubbalou's better. If you like wings, you'll have to try Flyers...it's not a very pretty area but the wings are awesome! I had a recommendation for Chinese but since you don't like it...
 
Folodar - Welcome to you too. Have a terrific trip.
My trip will be terrible, we're moving and unpacking stinks.

well, save a little for me homie.....
you'll be there way before i will this year...
yep, im used to coming up there in october, but not this year.

Just remember to return it for HHN or there's gonna be some trouble. ;)
never, im keeping it for hhn too because im actually getting to go this yr.



ill probablybe stopping in here more often once we get moved, but its hard to keep up with all these posts lol

Bauren Stube is an EXCELLENT German restaurant. It's a bit of a drive from the Universal area (it's closer to the FL Mall), but worth it. For excellent steaks, Charley's on OBT is the best. There's a Charley's on I-Drive, but the OBT one is better.
 
Barb and Lori a BIG THANKS :thanks: For the birthday wishes for Christine .

Mac Cliff notes are great .... I can always use the extra help.


Off to finish getting ready . This may be my last post till MONDAY :eek: . Don't yack to much I will never Ketchup then .


See everyone after our trip .

Mary
 
Wow! Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes!!!!!! :goodvibes

And thanks for the compliments on my name(s), too. I have such warm fuzzies now. :lovestruc What a great group of homies you are! You made my day.

Lori, the topsy-turvy cake fits me to a tee! It's gorgeous and we will all enjoy the deliciousness of it. With all that food coloring, we may enjoy it twice. :rolleyes:

Mary, hope your trip is wonderful! :banana:

Welcome to all the newbies! If you're just a little crazy, you'll fit right in.

Thanks again for all the birthday cheer!

they must be well hidden, at least in 1 of the parks or even in down town disney, where else can you look?

I will make a note of these. We have eaten at Sonny's. We'll have to give Bubbalou's a try this time instead.

My trip will be terrible, we're moving and unpacking stinks.

But you will be right there with the parks to enjoy once the packing is done. Remember that and it will make the unpacking easier!

Bauren Stube is an EXCELLENT German restaurant. It's a bit of a drive from the Universal area (it's closer to the FL Mall), but worth it. For excellent steaks, Charley's on OBT is the best. There's a Charley's on I-Drive, but the OBT one is better.

It took me a minute but I figured out OBT I think. (Orange Blossum Trail?) I have thought about trying Charley's before but never did since I wasn't sure. Maybe we can give it a try this year. Will have to check out Bauren Stube too. Thanks! Any more suggestions?

Barb and Lori a BIG THANKS :thanks: For the birthday wishes for Christine .

I felt bad that I couldn't remember her name. So...

HAPPY SWEET 16 CHRISTINE!

Oh good! I went back and forth several times trying to find the perfect cake!

I wanted to give you this too:

Cause ya know "sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't"!
 
Mac - at work unfortunately! But just following along and saying hi! Happy birthday too to Tink and to Mary's daughter on the sweet 16! So when do you get to do the drivers' license thing?!

Not an exciting day here but have to look busy! I know as I've been reading that there's a ton of stuff I meant to comment on, but of course now I'm completely blank! :headache:
 
Okay, speaking of cakes, did anyone catch the special on one of the cooking channels last night with the girl who went to the show (cake decorating) for her Make-A-Wish trip? She was probably about 12 or 13. She chose to make a 4 level rainforest cake and it turned out really cool. It was fun seeing her have fun with them. Stephen enjoys watching all these cooking shows, but I'm sorry, I don't know the name!

Yes...OBT is Orange Blossom Trail...AKA SR441 to the locals. I think you would really enjoy Bubbalou's and there's one located very near Universal. :thumbsup2

These are local restaurants...not in the tourist areas so you wouldn't find them at the parks.
 
jr's home, tons of laundry & he brought tons of spending money back too:goodvibes ; bought him the new Mario Racing game for Wii as reward for not going hog wild buying junk. Head's up, he sez it stinks big time...hates the controller...have a feeling i'll be selling it on eBay in a week or so....shame-the other racing games were cool.

mary - have a great trip, don't forget to down a landshark or 2;)


hi all!

Busy getting ready for my vacation. We leave bright and early Sat morning. Should be in FL in time for lunch! :woohoo:

DH asked my DD if she thought I would like jewelry or perscription sunglasses for my anniversary........in his mind are perscrip sunglasses romantic?! :rotfl2: Thank goodness she told him jewelry. How can you buy sunglasses for someone? You need to be able to try them on. :confused3
least he's thinking about a gift...and not the day before:thumbsup2

Just a drive by before heading to bed. The parents and I ate at The Captain and The Cowboy tonight. It was my second time and their first. It's an excellent restaurant in beautiful downtown Apopka. I had the 8oz. filet and it was dy-no-myte!

Have a good night!

so glad you had a good dinner with the folks, betcher tired running about to the parks & working this week. Interesting name for a restaurant, we like Joe's Crab Shack & all the Landry's joints...they give a AAA discount:goodvibes
Thanks for the Birthday wishes! Sorry you've had alot on your mind, I know that gets tiring.

Mac, I'm finally caught up, and I hope you're feeling better. Funerals are so difficult and draining. :hug:
