Looks beautiful....and delicious!

Just wanted to post some more pics of our day at Disneyland last week. Goofy's Kitchen was just OK, definitely not worth $38.99 for adults. Although I thought $22.99 for kids was totally worth it for the character interaction. We were seated at one end of the restaurant, near the exit that the characters would go through frequently, so we saw them a lot, but each character only came by once to our table. And it was only Pluto, Minnie, Chip, and Dale. After you check in, you get to meet Goofy and take pics with him, which my daughter loved.

My dinner plate of all brown or beige food.Fried chicken and chicken nuggets were pretty tasty. Everything else was decent. There were other items that looked good, but I was already full after this plate.

DD absolutely LOVED the popcorn shrimp! Mac & cheese was good, too.

My dessert plate. My favorites were the bread pudding, creme brûlée, brownie, and cookies & cream tart. The strawberry thing was too sweet, the pear tart was decent, the lemon tart was good if you really like lemon, and the chocolate rice krispies treat had a weird taste.

Looks really fun! Goofy in a chef's hat always makes me happy.

@MR FERRET , when I've watched the old Christmas movies about Scrooge, etc., (and his clerk -- Bob Cratchitt's) family, always gets excited about the Christmas meal (goose), but also they love the "pudding". Is pudding on Christmas still something nowadays that the British people have for dessert? (I assume it's probably plum pudding.) I've always been curious about that, as I find international holiday food customs interesting.
In the UK, pudding means dessert.

Sorry, I hope this isn't offensive to you, but this made me laugh, just because you could be describing where I grew up. Wyoming is cold, and Yellowstone is basically one giant super volcano. But I love Wyoming. We're planning on traveling through Iceland again on our next trip and I'm hoping we have an evening layover so maybe I can see the Northern lights...that's on my bucket list.I wanted to say something about Iceland, but, I was afraid that I might offend someone that has a connection or even lives there (why is beyond me) so I will steal a line from Ron White and alter it slightly to read... If you ever get the opportunity to travel to Iceland.... Don't. Maybe it was because I hate cold weather or am not particularly fond of living on what is essentially an active volcano or just the dismal way the terminal at the airport looked and operated, but, absolutely nothing about the place made me think, gee, I must spend more time here. On the cruise back to the states they were pushing Iceland tourism to a very high degree. Both in cruise availability and lectures about the wonders of horseback riding through the frozen tundra that could explode at any moment. (I added that last part)

Not a good picture but this is a new member in my mom's house. She answers to Baby Kitty but her name is LSK, (Little S**t Kitty). She likes to attack toes, sits right in front of the tv so you can't see and will jump in the toilet if you leave the lid up. 
Sooo glad she isn't mine. 
That's a peacock feather she pulled out of a floral display and destroyed.

Christmas pudding (or plum pudding or figgy pudding) is a dessert made with dried or candied fruit. Yorkshire pudding is like a popover bread. My best friends (originally from England) make it with the same fruit mixture you'd find in a fruitcake.@MR FERRET , when I've watched the old Christmas movies about Scrooge, etc., (and his clerk -- Bob Cratchitt's) family, always gets excited about the Christmas meal (goose), but also they love the "pudding".

Something with ketchup. He loves ketchup.

That is right. And it is delicious! Especially with a nice sauce poured over top. It is part of my family's Christmas tradition as we come from the UK.
But "pudding" is a term used in the UK throughout the year and it is used to mean dessert.

The thing is that that song is from my childhood...when you're 3 years old, you don't necessarily think about what's real and not real...I just knew the Bible stories and there was no drummer boy. And I was a somewhat shy girl, so the thought of going with some strange people I didn't know to go see the baby was creepy. So I didn't like the song. I associated it with negative things. And I never got past it...it's one of those things where, I didn't understand the meaning behind it. My 3 year old self didn't know that the wise men didn't come at Christmas, or that they didn't come to the manger. What my 3 year old self DID understand was that there was no drummer boy in the story, and that we're not supposed to talk to strangers, or go with them when they ask us if we want to go see their puppy. Is it rational? No, of course not. I was a kid. And I just never grew to like the song. Much like I hate the color orange. There's no real rational reason that I don't like it, I just don't. As a child, I refused to color with orange, except the sun, because it actually appears orange. But I don't like the color. Sorry, but I just don't like that song. Never have, and probably never will, whether it's rational or not.
