Ariel's Grotto Princess Breakfast (this meal is served family style):

OOOOH! I so loved our breakfast at Ariel's Grotto. It was so, so, so delicious. You are making me want it again so, so very badly.

Blue Bayou:

Easily my one and only favorite at BB! Sorry, I'm just a salmon girl. I order it everywhere, no joke.

I also really enjoyed Goofy's for breakfast and you are making me really want to do the desert thing for Fantasmic! which I have already been entertaining ideas of doing. It's going to be really hard to reign in my 'splurges', but I have to do it!!

All hail the mighty FOOD PORN!!!

Oh Laurie! I don't know how I missed your PTR! I'm so excited you all are going!!! And I'm even more excited about Michayla!!! What a sweetheart! Her hair looks adorable and that is just so wonderful she gave you kisses! Yay for her!!!!!

Hi Courtney!!!! The PTR just went in, so no problem!!! We're pretty early in the planning, but I love doing these!!!! Michayla is definately making strides in her own time & I still melt when I think about her first kisses!!!

I hear ya on the salmon......love it!!!
We enjoy Goofy's for breakfast more than we do for dinner....but part of that has to do with the characters. We see a ton going in the morning....but very few at dinner time. The food is always good!!!!

I have yet to do GK for dinner. And that probably wont change this trip. I want to make sure we're able to get all of our nighttime entertainment in. It's so tempting to try and plan out what we'll be doing, but so hard since the summer information is still a-ways away.

I'm thinking of trying a breakfast we haven't done yet or going back to GK or AG for as early a breakfast as we can get (which will probably be GK so we can have more in-park time).

BTW, how did you like the Walk in Walt's Footsteps tour? I think my #1 priority splurge this time will be a tour. I've been saying I'm going to do it for the past 2 years now (since I actually got into planning my vacations more) but always put it off because of time or the scheduling of my character meals.

We're actually planning on doing all the character breakfasts this trip. We've never done the one at the Storyteller's Cafe. The plan is to do a late-ish breakfast & then dinner.......just cutting out lunches all together.

The WinWF Tour is awesome!! We really loved it. A lot of info we knew, but a ton of stuff we didn't. I actually teared up at the end of it when they talked about Walt's death. The tour guide also got a bit of a shaky voice....really meant something to me that he was so in love with Disneyland & Walt's vision that it still affected him. The luncheon was soooooo good.....the bread on the sandwiches was delicious!!!!!!!
Definately worth the price & time to do at least once!!

OMG that salmon at the BB looked soooo good, the one at Rainforest, did not! looked dry to me! yum my tummy is growling so bad right now, I havent had a decent meal since Jan 1st but I am down 16 lbs, I would like to lose another 14 before we leave but ever since this cold has hit me I have absolutely no desire to work out :-( but on the flip side, I havent really eaten much and am only drinking peppermint tea for a snack, its the only thing that soothes my sore throat....

Anyway, awesome food pics, thank you so much for posting them for me! *hugs*

I'd have to look into the times that I could do Storytellers. I've been meaning to do it, mostly to see Meeko for a photo to give to my sister. Long story [ semi ] short, we got a grey kitten when the movie came out (my mom was also the G.M. of a theater at the time so it was very fresh in our minds) who we named Meeko. He became my sister's heart and soul pretty much, but passed away due to cancer last summer. It was [ and still is some days ] very hard on her. So that's a big reason I want to do that. I'm trying to get her to go along, especially since it will be our last chance to do something together before she leaves for Humboldt this summer, but it wont be happening so I need the next best thing.

And thanks for the WinWF info. It really does sound worth it to me. And I think if we're staying for a few hours on our last day I might be able to squeeze it into the trip somewhere without forfeiting too much by way of ride time. But I think I've already decided this trip will be less focused on the rides as the entertainment.

Actually the Rainforest salmon was very good....the reason it looks a bit dry is because it was cooked on a plank (the wood burns a bit).....but very tasty.

You're welcome on the pics.....can't wait to see what you bring home!!!!

Our electronic tax returns were rejected!! After Addy's adoption, we forgot to get a new SS card for her with her "new name"....so the number & last name didn't match......... ugh!! Now we're not sure if it will take or not, because it wouldn't let us go back in & correct the middle initial & so that won't match their records either.......
Now we'll just sit here & wait for a rejection email to come back in again....... Really need the money before the end of the month so I can renew my AP & would like to start setting some of our plans too.

Please IRS, be kind & accept it without any delays!!!!

YAY! I'm so glad that when you get bumps in the road you always figure out a way over them! So excited that nothing can hold you back and you guys are really going!

If you can find a way to ship those kiddies over to me I'll gladly take them off your hands for a little while!
