This looks awesome! This one is definitely going on my list.

That list is super helpful - thank you! And yes, I'm pretty sure it was Orange Julius when I went as a kid in the 80s. Or maybe my mom just always referred to them as Orange Julius, lol! But I think they were because we didn't have them in New York, and then when they started popping up in...

You're speaking my language! Do you know where I can find chili cheese fries?

I am really so excited about the soup/salad option, lol! When I first booked about 8 months ago, everything I read was talking about how you can't swap your dessert for an appetizer, but just being able to swap it for something will make me not feel like I'm wasting it on a dessert I don't...

We have a lunch QS at Be Our Guest - this menu includes French Onion and Potato Leek soups on their dessert menu. Those are my types of dessert, lol! Hopefully they'll let us swap for one of those. We're those weirdos that would still have soup on a 90 degree day.

These sound perfect! I can do a cronut :) For quick services especially it would be great to swap out a dessert for one of the snack items. We're just not big dessert eaters, and I'd love even a simple salad at the start of the meal rather than dessert after. Well, except for our Mama...

I'm finally about 10 days out from Disney! We have the free dining plan, and I'd love some recommendations of your favorite snack foods. Last time I went we used them on boring breakfast items (oatmeal, toast, etc. - efficient but not fun) because we're not really huge chocolate or sweets...

Tomorrow morning is my 60 days, and this is my first time booking Fast Passes in advance. I feel ok with my strategy overall, but I'm far from an expert on wait times and would love some feedback. My mom and I will be there for 7 days from December 11 - 17, doing two parks most days (with a...

I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it for me - if I was going with my whole family I definitely would, but it will just be my mom and I in December. Normally when we vacation together we only get 1-2 pictures together, which is fine - but I'm tempted by this! While I would be ok with just...

It's so funny you ask because on Monday the Disney store was offering a free shipping sale, so I went ahead and ordered the Tink band for mom (along with a cute $25 Tink hoodie that was on clearance). I'm excited to see them! We leave on December 11th, and mom is coming down to me on December...

My trip is in December, and I have until around November 11th to commit to a name. I'm holding off until the last minute, hoping I can put "Dr. Dylan", but I have to wait to see if I'll be able to schedule my dissertation defense in November or not! Lots more writing to do, but believe it or...

I am a very sociable, non-shy ISTP (I probably present more as an extrovert and can fake it well, but desperately need my alone time to recharge), and I've gone on several cruises with just my mom and we've been seated at tables for 2 most of the time. On the last cruise we went on, we agreed...

This should help - there doesn't seem to be a lot of options, but I'd say the bread bowl and biscuit and gravy for breakfast, and then they have 3 sandwich options for lunch/dinner, and probably the Caesar salad as well. http://wdwinfo.com/wdwinfo/dining/diningdetail.cfm?Restaurant.ID=195

I also have been doing SwagBucks for years and have earned thousands of dollars in gift cards (I typically pick Amazon or PayPal, but there are other options). But you get out of it what you put into them - it does take some effort. Because I've been doing earning sites for a few years, I...

The perfect solution and so obvious! Why didn't I think of that? Fairies are just so wise.

Oh, that's good to know. Our Ohana reservations are at 3:45, so going early won't work (I live in PA and I'm not afraid of a little day drinking either ;)). If we still have room after we finish dinner (doubtful), maybe we'll go. Or maybe take the monorail over another day. Thanks!

That is a pretty awesome Tink band! Now I'll just have to figure out if it's worth shelling out an extra $25 on an adorable band that I know will make my mom happy all week, or if I should save it instead for a round of drinks in Epcot that will also make her happy ;)

Ohhh, these sound interesting! Is Trader Sam's like a bar you can go to without reservations? I'm going in December and my mom and I have reservations at Ohana one day - would we be able to go early and have a drink here first? Sorry, I'm not an expert on all the dining places - but I'd like...

Where/how did you get the Tink band? My mom and I are going in December and this will be my first experience with the Magic Bands. I'm just excited to have our names on them and pick colors (red for me, purple for mom), but my mom LOVES Tinkerbell, so I'd definitely consider getting her a...

Thanks so much for the heads up! I booked lunch at Restaurant Marrakesh on 12/12 - that was the last reservation I had to make, besides tickets to MVMCP. Excited to see who will be the narrator that night - Meredith Vierra is 12/13-12/15, so I felt ok taking my chances with someone else on 12/12.
