And Now for Non-Restaurant Related Food of a Fun and Celebratory Nature...
As many of you have realized by now, Jason and I were celebrating our 8th wedding anniversary during this trip to WDW. Jason had also just had his birthday on May 10th, so we were also marking that. I've always wanted to check-in to a Disney hotel and find some kind of special surprise waiting...after years of trips and hints I finally figured out that I needed to take things into my own hands.
Jay and I don't usually do much on birthdays any longer, but I really wanted to do something kind of fun for him and give him a little surprise. I must give a huge shout-out to Fairy Tale Bride who was a great help when I called the WDW Florist to place my order.
***Thanks for all your help, Lindsey!!!***
To celebrate Jason's birthday I ordered
Mickey's Happy Surprise Cake which is made with about 24 Mickey candy bars (Almond, Milk Chocolate, and Dark Chocolate Bars) - the "inside" of the cake is filled with other treats...pretzels, gummies, peanut butter cups...all stuff that comes from Goofy's Candy Company.
I also wanted some balloons delivered with it, which does cost extra but I thought it would look a lot more fun that way.
Jason and his birthday surprise
What do you mean I can only have one???
Being the selfish person I am, I also ordered something for us to celebrate the anniversary. I opted for the
Gourmet Extravaganza, which typically comes with a bottle of Rosa Regale, Mickey toasting flutes, a Mickey cutting board and cheese spreader, and all kinds of yummy gourmet treats finished off with a single red rose in a bud vase. I paid extra to replace the Regale with a bottle of Iron Horse Fairy Tale Cuvee - when celebrating an anniversary I want champagne, thank you very much!
Our gourmet treats included Lindt chocolates, dipping pretzels, sausage, crackers, champagne mustard, cheese, key lime cookies, and cashews.
Happy Anniversary!
Don't ask me how much this cost...
Mickey cutting board and cheese spreader...so cute!
How about a drink?
There were actually a couple of surprises that happened during the week but I'm going to leave those for the days that they occurred on. Since these two items were delivered on Friday evening it made sense to post them together, especially since I was responsible for them. I was not responsible for the others...so I'm going to make you wait for them so that you can enjoy the surprise, too!
Thanks again for reading!
