6 days until Halloween!

I am a big fan of CupCakes and Disney has some good ones but just as many of them are kinda duds. I find that often with Disney desserts some being amazing and others not so much.

I'm not big on desserts, so a plain vanilla cupcake with buttercream frosting is just right for me. Occasionally, I'll get something different, but aside from key lime pie, just not a big dessert fan. Cupcakes and cookies are pretty much it for me. Half the time I look at a dessert menu, think all of it sounds terrible, and skip it, saying I'll get something later, and then never do. And if I get a cupcake, I usually end up sharing it

I think this is why I lose weight whenever I go to WDW. This, and the fact that I alternate between eating fried food and not eating fried food.

Actually she's dark gray. But yes, both are adorable!

Mine is being even more adorable now.

I came up to bed, and she followed me into my room. Now I'm in bed, and she's pressed up against me with one paw around me like she's hugging me, and she's asleep. I'm going to need to disturb her in a few, and I hate to do it. Cat owner problems. Can't dare move because we can't disturb the cat.

She'll forgive you.

Will the Mickey pretzel have a side of mustard?

A big heaping pile of it!

I don't understand this picture. Was the car in an accident? The image has me really confused! I'm sure it's just me . . .

You've never seen a Harry Potter movie?

Just read the following in my management textbook:

Apparently, rides at Disney work properly all of the time.
Costumed characters entertain you in line.

I don't think the authors of this book have actually been to WDW...

the book is probably stuck on the Eisner's early years.

probably someone who thinks that all Americans are ultra obese who ride scooters?

Ugh, I hate jeans. I have one pair of jeans and I only have them because we had to wear jeans for a choir performance, so I had to go out and buy a pair. They are SO uncomfortable to me...restrictive and the two points on the top with the button and button hole dig into my stomach something terrible. I have a hard time finding pants to fit because my waist is so much smaller in comparison to my hips and thighs and such, so if I can get them pulled up, they are way too big in the waist, so I also have to wear a belt and then the belt digs in as well. I avoid jeans like the plague. I had some that I bought at Lane Bryant in 2010 that I LOVED. They were a very soft denim and they were made for curvy women, so there wasn't such a gap at the waist...they were wonderful. But they don't have those here and the ones I had wore out and I wanted to get more last time I was in the US, but I was only in Wyoming and there is no Lane Bryant in Wyoming....at least there wasn't then. But you're right...everything in CO and Wyo is so casual!

If you can hold on a bit you'll be in Orlando next summer where there are 2 fun outlet malls. My favorite places to shop in them are the official Disney outlet stores.

So I was thinking that if you ate a Halloween candy bar while riding the bike, they would cancel each other out, so at least you wouldn't gain any weight!

Not really.

Ours are too. I've had bad experiences at our farmer's market, only open a couple month's. I got apple full of worms, and some rotten tomato's at the bottom of the bag. No thanks!

Yep, you need some jocularity when the biggest hurricane bares down on your area.

I'm sorry, I ran out of spiritual energy..please proceed to make a sacrifice by offering 2 burgers, 1 pizza and 3 pieces of fried chicken.

I don't think butternut squash shreds like spaghetti squash does...but I'm no @figmentfan423 . She'd probably know for sure, if she hasn't answered already.

On the subject of butternut squash. It doesn't shred. It's more like pumpkin and seeing there's going to be a shortage of canned pumpkin this Thanksgiving it can easily be substituted. You cook it just like butternut either whole or halved. BUT!!!!!!! Do not cook them whole if they are from the supermarket as they're waxed The best way to cut them is with a heavy cleaver.

Well, Puerto Vallarta was hit by power outages and internet outages.
I am in Banderas Bay in the Nuevo Vallarta area (which is next to PVR but in the other state of Nayarit). We never lost power, only internet from one of my connections.
Luckily.. I have 2 internet connections.

You were very lucky. I had no power, phone or internet for a week after Sandy. At least I didn't have any damage. I also had a large stack of books and lots of batteries for my flashlights.

So what are you giving the trick or treaters? Dollar bills?

Happy Sunday! I'm in a good mood the bathroom is almost put back together! YEA! Should be fully functional by dinner time tonight. I have to run to Wegmans and my dh needs some items from a plumbing department so we're running out together today. By the time everything is done it will be bed time for me. So I'll play ketchup tomorrow. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
