We were working with one car this past week. In a larger city it wouldn’t be so bad. Buses, taxis, even friends would be able to help us. But after our car was towed Monday night were still waiting for them to fix/replace the fuel pump on Friday. Really, it takes this long? But, in…
Cosmic Ray’s – A Cool Place to Stop for a Bite to Eat
We love Cosmic Ray’s for a bit of respite be it from the heat or rain. Situated on the edge of Fantasyland and Tomorrowland in Walt Disney World it always seems we are right in that area when hunger starts to gnaw at us. With 3 “Bays” for ordering lines are usually not too long,…

Silver Beach Pizza
The trees are turning fast. Our tree on the edge of driveway is about 50-60% all ready. Many of the other trees on the street are still green but our maple tree is pretty well turned. What that means is I can no longer deny that fall really is here. The 45-50 degree nights should…
Slow Cooker Broccoli and Cheese Soup – Only 4 Ingredients!
We miss the huge parties we used to have back in Rochester. We would invite all our friends to our house for a Christmas Open House or to a cabin in the parks for our Annual Sledding Party. We would have 90-120 people throughout the day and it was always so much fun! We would…
Caramel Apple Pork Loin
We have a busy week and I am using my slow cooker as much as possible to try to make my life easier. I bought a pork loin last week and had planned to try a Honey Apple Pork Loin. I was putting all the ingredients in the slow cooker when I realized I was…
Buffalo Shrimp Tostadas
When I first told my kids about this dish I got “the Face.” You know the scrunchy face your kids make when they think something sounds weird or yucky. They both said, “Buffalo sauce on shrimp? That will be disgusting.” They love Buffalo wings and Buffalo sauce and I guaranteed them they would like it,…
One Pot Lemon Chicken and Rice
I had planned this for dinner the other night but when I went to get the chicken out of the refrigerator it was still frozen solid. So, instead I added the marinade to the bag of chicken and let it sit overnight to thaw some more. Sometimes our best intentions need to be changed and…
Beach Club at Walt Disney World
Lobby of the Beach Club. To be honest we are a die-hard Value Resort family. In our past 20 trips we have stayed at Moderate Resorts twice. We did not care for the Caribbean Beach Resort. Some people love this resort. For us, it did not work. We like being close to the big pool…
Korean Beef made with Quorn
I purchased this product with my own money. I am not in any way affiliated with Quorn. These thoughts and opinions are my own. Quorn is something I had never heard of until my son decided he wanted to become a vegetarian. I was searching for a meat substitute to use once in a while…
Shrimp with Creamy Tomato Sauce or How I Have Deprived My Children of a “Normal” Childhood
I have started having my children “help” make dinner each night. One cooks while the other sets the table. I give guidance and tell them what to add. They are getting good at knowing different terms such as saute’, pan fry and sweat the onions. Tonight they are being a bit stubborn and picking at…
