It’s time for another trip report! Yay! I LOVE trip reports! This time around we’re covering the 2015 Wine & Dine Half Quarter Marathon trip. I’ll be including reviews of my Food & Wine Festival purchases within the trip report itself, but restaurant reviews will be in their own separate posts. Commentary from Elizabeth provided in red. Onward! The...

Kill/Refurb/Marry time! This month’s blog hop topic is an obvious one – and one I’ve tackled before. We’re choosing items from the Epcot Food & Wine Festival! I have very deliberately not looked at what I posted last time in the hopes of keeping the past from influencing the present. Kill: Anything with peas or grapes or cherry tomatoes or blueberries I realize this...
Continue readingThe Most Universal Trip Report Of All: Food Reviews
Shall we talk food? I thought so. My Universal Studios trip was brief and not particularly food-filled, but I made time to try some things. Lunch on day one was of course accomplished at The Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley. The offerings are extremely British and rather heavy, but I found a good option in The Ploughman’s Lunch. It’s advertised...

Yesterday I did a thing. I threw away my food journal. This may seem like a poor choice. Food journals are good. They help us think about the choices we are making. They help us stay accountable. They help us take a hard look at what we’re putting in our bodies. The thing is… I don’t want to any...
Continue readingKill/Refurb/Marry: Frozen Treats in the Parks
It’s Kill/Refurb/Marry time! This month’s edition of the blog hop concerns favorite frozen treats in the parks. Now, the definition of “frozen treat” may vary from person to person – does ice cream count? If so, does it have to be considered a “novelty” or is Beaches & Cream’s No Way Jose sundae eligible? Alternatively, does it only county...

IT’S HERE IT’S HERE IT’S HERE!!!! What am I so darn excited about? THE MENU ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THIS YEAR’S EPCOT FOOD & WINE FESTIVAL, DUH.

JENN: Did you run at all last week? MOON: I did! I actually ran a lot… I had weird protein-pangs. Was super hungry most of the week. >_> JENN: Hey, if you’re running a lot, that makes total sense. Protein is good! MOON: Sometimes a bit difficult for a vegetarian. I found that I was eating waaaay too many protein bars in lieu...

JENN: How was your week in running? MOON: The week was good running-wise. Yesterday I experienced extreme hunger and the only culprit could be maybe too much running and/or too little caloric intake. Has that ever happened to you? JENN: I’m often super hungry the day after a big run, yeah. After all, you’ve got muscles to build up! MOON: It felt like...

JENN: Hi guys! Please welcome once again my frequent partner-in-crime Elizabeth! I wanted to bring her in because it occurred to me that it might be interesting to find out what INfrequent WDW visitors remember from their trips. As it’s been awhile since Elizabeth was there, she’s a perfect candidate. I believe the last time I dragged you down was...
