A few more pictures from my trip, this is the second half of my 3rd day.

Inside the old Wonders of Life building.


Lady and Tramp topiaries in Italy.


Fun with my fisheye in the American Adventure


A little chocolate mousse in France


Pan and Hook topiaries in the UK


Head to the MK by ferry


Enjoying the castle at night in a new spot


In the new gardens area


Meeting Mickey is always magical.

Are you friends going on the trip with you guys?

Yep, they're twins and are treating me and my daughter to everything.

Just because it fits so well.

One of my brothers lived out in Azusa (So. CA) for a few years after he got out of the Marine Corps. He said it was hot every day. He also missed the change of seasons, so finally he moved back to the East Coast. Now, he doesn't like the cold and snow nearly as much as I do, but he said that the weather in CA was not to his liking.

Azusa - the best town in the USA, from A to Z.
So says Laura Dotson on Storage Wars.

Take THAT, you gator!

Well, at least he had an original "pick up" line! Although things changed through those 12 years, and regretfully did not work out, I hope you still had some enjoyable memories along the way. I wish you only happiness from now on.

Yeah, what she said!

 

[JenniferS]

Leftovers!



With milk, of course.


As usual, my eyes were bigger than my belly.
I ate all the potatoes (duh!), but gave more than half of the chicken to Hubby.

New Girl started out with so much promise.
The anticipation of Nick and Jess getting together left me breathless.

Sadly, they were no Jim and Pam, and now the show just sucks!

Seriously, how many people have they each slept with?

 

[JenniferS]

I know I quoted this again (they still look good the second time!) but are any of these maple? I love maple donuts.

None were maple this time.
Last time I bought half a dozen maple with candied bacon. I'm assuming they were good - they were gone before I finished bringing in the rest of the groceries!

For supper tonight I had barbecue ribs, baked beans and fries.


Not the best barbecue but the small town I live in doesn't have many options for eating out.

Ok gang, here is a picture of my wedding cake. I couldn't find the cd of pictures I got from the photographer, so I had to take a picture of a picture from my scrapbook. So the picture isn't the greatest. Anyway, if you look close on the top layer underneath Mickey and Minnie right in front there is a hidden Mickey swirl, kind of a classic hidden Mickey. I remember there being others but they don't show in the picture. If I could go back 10 years I would have taken more pictures. View attachment 88014 View attachment 88015

Beautiful.

Also worthy of note, the living room flows into the dining area via a small vestibule, so an awkward transition was inevitable somewhere.

And thus ends Architecture 101/Canadian version.
It's 2:45, and I still might be unshowered and in my PJ's.

I can still see how a small decorative trim strip between the kitchen fur down and the wall might have been used to separate and further accentuate the varying surfaces, maybe.

I would eat corn fritters with ketchup, apple--no ketchup.

Hahaaa...!
I almost posted the same thing to make the distinction.

 

[donaldtoo]

I wonder if Boo Boo Kitty liked it.

 

[donaldtoo]

I'd be fine with it.

Me too, thus the winking smilie. I'd eat the heck outta' that.
I was just tryin' to sound sensitive...

Finally.


I like! Sweeeeeeet...!!!

Too hot??? Never!!! I lived in CA and the weather in So Cal was wonderful!

Yep, it was wonderful in NoCal, too..!

 

[donaldtoo]

@donaldtoo , I saw a show about cooking in Austin over the weekend. It was Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations show on the Travel Channel. Wow! Those people in Austin sure know how to cook barbecue!! No wonder you love that area!

Do you know what the original air date was on that show? He's done stuff from here before.

There's great BBQ all over the country (world, for that matter), but, yes, I'd say Austin (and, Texas in general) ranks right up there with the best of 'em.
