We're Doing WHAT For My Birthday??? - Final Thoughts

[Marshay]

Dare I ask why?

This is what happened when we went to 50s Prime Time for lunch.

I enjoyed everything about my meal -- see my nicely cleaned plate?

But DH thought he could just eat what he wanted to...the meat and potatoes...Silly boy! "mama" wouldn't let him get away with NOT eating the vegetables!!

Open wide

Beware! If you don't eat your veggies Mama may make you inhale them!

On the plus side less time to over analyze and build it up too high.

Yuppers

That is HILARIOUS! I will be sorely tempted to do that on purpose

I was thinking how much fun a 50's cafe would be in DCA. I think it would fit in.

Hello!

We'll be at WDW April 6th-16th and some of our park dates overlap with yours. (We'll be at Epcot on the 8th and DHS and the 9th.) On the 8th, we have ADRs for Le Cellier at 2pm. I just checked, and there are 1:35, 1:40 and 2:25 lunch ADRs available at Le Cellier for that day if you're interested in scooping one up! If you get there before us, feel free to pass along any leftover pretzel bread!

We'll be celebrating my bday in MK on the 7th. Hope you have a great time and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

You know, I've thought that same time myself

 

[Marshay]

Yes, even if you love your veggies ... make sure you leave a few extra on the plate ... and have Roxy with camera in hand!

I kept checking back and was able to find a lunch time opening for Tony's Town Square so I cancelled the dinner res there. Still hoping to get that Tomorrowland Terrace Fireworks Dessert Party rese and don't want to be too full from Tony's

We went to Tony;s a couple years ago on a whim as we had to cancel another adr when trent was sick and it was our favorite meal hands down

 

[cherbear]

wow, what a great snag!! I'm sorry I missed your post earlier about what date you wanted but it doesn't matter now. Absolutely thrilled that you got in to Le Cellier!!

I still really want that tag though.

Marsha, I'm sure I must've seen those pics before but I don't remember them!

Mike, when MY Mike didn't eat his veggies...he knew what would happen. So he attempted to go dump his greens on the table next to ours, where the party had just left.

Well, his plan ALMOST worked. The waiter, I think his name was Tim, happened to be coming by as Mike was returning to his seat. He studied his table and then pointed and said "Are these yours? What are you doing putting your greens on my table?? Come here, you're going in time out!" He made him stand up with his nose against the wall. And when Mike started laughing he said "oh you think this is funny? JAAAANEETTT!! Look what your boy did, he put his greens on my table" She went and scolded him, with her hands on her hips. And then she said "No dessert for you!" This went on for a good 15 minutes and it was a complete riot.
To top it off, the family directly next to us was from the VERY TOWN I grew up in (only 40 minutes from where we NOW live) and their boys were hilarious. They made sure to "tattle" on Mike, so he would have never gotten away with it had Tim not caught him. LOL
