What a coincidence, Fiesta de Cabochons is one of the HHN houses in Orlando this year.

I'm being told that unlike rides and attractions, cabochons will attract rich people like never before!

Cabochon Weekend Trip Report:
As I mentioned, I went to two different sociables this weekend. I used "cabochon" in a sentence at both of them. No one knew what the hell I was talking about.
The first time I used it was the early cocktail portion of a dinner party on Saturday evening. I was chatting out on the patio with 3 other people and dropped cabochon into a statement about large landscape rocks. The lady next to me said "Cabazon? They've got a landscape store at Cabazon Outlets now?!?"
The second time I used it was today at a brunch thing, when someone asked how my move planning was going regarding storage and Bekins. I said that I was getting a few things, including my cabochons, out of storage early so that I would have them for the holidays. And there was... dead silence.
I would love to know who in TDA knew it was an actual word in the first place, wouldn't you?

Context is everything. And yeah, the above makes no sense because of usage.
I wouldn't know what you were referring to and I've known what cabachon rubies and emeralds are for a long time.
If you'd said you'd inherited a lovely collection of cabachon rings from your Aunt Mabel that you were going to take out of storage and have appraised, then yeah, I'd know what you're talking about.
Though for the record I don't own or wear jewelry like that. I tend more towards Disney accessories, as with everything else I wear. lol
With all that said, if Disney doesn't put a big polished stone up in the middle of the castle, then I've no idea what they're talking about either.

Some day, there'll be a separate sub-forum dedicated to Hot Dog Days.
And for the record, a few days ago when I glanced at our main page and saw [Cabochon] in the topic title, I assumed it was some sort of HTML formatting error, denoting a new font I was unaware of. then, like most of you, I did my own search.

When one polishes a hot dog to a smooth sheen, with no facets, magic is achieved.

Need.more.Plaza De Famila billboards. There has to be at least one family who was expecting a Coco ride at DCA right?
I’m still over here dreaming of a DCA where TOT still exists and Soarin Over California is still year around. Hollywoodland is plussed and gets MMRR in addition to TOT. Instead of Avengers Campus a romanticized San Francisco houses the Marvel attractions. And a Coco ride could go into a land inspired by Old Town in San Diego. Paradise Pier 3.0 instead of Pixar Pier.

Where were the billboards for Hot Dog Days?
I also think Disney should do a Full House live stage show in the San Francisco area of DCA.
Now that across the street it's Sanfran Tokyo or whatever, do the rest of the San Fran buildings get changed too? Even the Rotunda that Mermaid is now in is a San Francisco icon. Probably Disney doesn't even care and it will just be a weird leftover.

That's too appealing, cut that out!
Still hoping the 50th was cheapend out to have bigger budgets for this celebration. They can always give me a call. I will give them my ideas for free!

That presumes that they have a plan that looks more than 180 days in advance. Much less looks at multiple properties as a holistic entity. It's clear they don't have that type of mid-range planning or medium-picture visibility any longer.
So forget about their ability to plan long-range and look big-picture.
They're obviously just pulling stuff out of thin air and slashing budgets at the last minute, with no thought to the mid-range future or what their other parks might do, or not do.
It's amateur hour now in Burbank, TDA and TDO, as we can clearly see.
We’re exactly 12 weeks away from the kickoff to this celebration, and we’ve barely heard anything at all.
