with friends and few photos… When we returned from our recent cruise, we wanted to continue the “vacation feeling” for the whole day — so, we made reservations for dinner at bluezoo and asked Calvin & Kate to join us. We contacted Chad (remember him from the Food & Wine Classic?) and asked if he continue reading Dinner at bluezoo … In December, Disney World offered a special calendar to Annual Passholders – interestingly, you could only get it at Animal Kingdom at one specific location.

The layout of the calendar is continue reading Annual Passholder Calendar for 2012 … Today we have something special! A Guest Post!

The pork was moist and had just a few red pepper flakes continue reading Pork Slider, Hawaii – Epcot 2011 Food & Wine Festival … This Culinary Demonstration got off to a weird start, the man in front of us in line had a lot of body odor, luckily, he sat at another table, but nora could still “smell him” and it was really off-putting. Also, the attendants were pointing out “seating options” to guests as they entered the Culinary continue reading Culinary Demonstration – Russell Palmer, Hollywood Brown Derby, Disney’s Hollywood Studios … Sharing events with friends is always more fun. Our friends Al and Judy were here for the weekend with Al’s “Big Sis”. So for this lunch we had a fantastic time and got to do more than just focus on the food – we got to share with friends. We’ve already been talking with Al continue reading La Hacienda de San Angel – Tequila Lunch Pairing … Last year, we attended Party for the Senses for the first time. We had briefly considered it in previous years… usually along the lines of “might be fun, we’d need at least one other couple to go with us.” Then we heard about the Wine View Lounge and decided “well, that would mean we aren’t continue reading 3D Disney’s Dessert Discovery Party – 2011 …
