I don’t eat Disney burgers. I’ve had one in 20+ years, and @Eric1955 was there to prove that I gave more than half of it to Mike.
I was kidding because it's rare to find a good quick service burger. Every time I have gotten them they taste like dry cardboard. My family actually did eat at the Electric Umbrella one time on our last day right before we were starting the drive back. We all got burgers, and they were delicious. But we haven't had good luck there any other time.
Cosmic Ray’s was pretty dismal this past trip.
I like Cosmic Ray's. I think it's a nostalgic thing because it was always my favorite place as a kid. CHH is one of my favorites, too. Pecos Bill was my favorite meal of my whole trip in June. That may have been because I was staving, though. But those nachos and queso was amazing.
I made them, but I forgot to double the batch.
I then froze most of them in a Tupperware container, to not tempt us. However, I left out about 10 or so, and they're gone . . . already . . . 
Time to make and ship us all a few dozenTwo days ago, I baked chocolate chip cookies (with Ghiradelli semisweet chips).
Earlier this week it was also my grandfather
Sorry, to hear that. My Grandfather died when I was less then 1 year old. I had no emotion for that one. Then in 1963 I lost both my grandmothers. One in February and one in August. I could write a book on what happened during the 24 hours vigil at the February passing, that comes with the wake being at home. I was fifteen at the time and in spite of feeling a loss, the things that happened were so weird, especially by the time that the third night got here that we spent most of the time finding everything funny. Including one grossly overweight Aunt that went to every wake just go get the free food. It lasted that long because another Aunt had to get to upper New York State from Kansas via train. Talk about exhausted. Then my last grandfather passed away in 1981. Since then I have lost all my Aunts, Uncles, 4 cousins, my father, my mother, a number of friends and even a number of clients that lived in my nursing home, and my X-wife. The older one gets the more it happens and our feelings alter with every one, depending on our connection to them. However, with each one we start to understand more that death is the ending part of life and is natural. It is unavoidable and all that those of us still left behind can do is look up and continue on. Sorry for your loss.Earlier this week it was also my grandfather
I’ve gone through most of the emotions now so I’m more comfortable saying it here. It was really hard at first...

Record highs here - in the 60’s! It’s weird.
We had 50 degree weather yesterday. Very strange winter. But I have a feeling this is just the start of the heavy snows and cold. I'm just worried it will extend into May this year since we had a very warm December.
Thank you. When I first heard he was gone my first reaction was denial. He had an accident and fell a few days before but his stubbornness prevented him from following the instructions to get better. Who knows, maybe the pain was too much for him to go through the 3 or 6 months that would’ve been required. All I can say is that his house is way too quiet now.
Aww, I’m very sorry to hear this.Earlier this week it was also my grandfather
