Disney Reviews Snack Edition #12 - Macarons

I figured I was pretty much done with the Snack Edition of my Disney Reviews...although I eat a lot of snacks at Disney, it's all mainly the same snacks and I don't vary much. As a regular visitor at the Disney Food Blog, I've been hearing non-stop about Mickey Macarons, so I decided to try one on a whim when I got one of my regular red velvet cake pops. Needless to say, cake pops what? I now have a new favorite Disney World snack!!

For some reason, even though I literally had a dozen or so of them throughout the trip, I only managed two pictures, the one above (which was pretty much my staple one...they had it in purple and orange and I was lucky enough to get purple every time). This one was your standard macaron flavor (which to me just tasted like the best cookie I ever had with a lightly chocolate-flavored center). When I got home I looked up the recipe and I would have never guessed it was made with almonds!

This one was more gourmet. I don't know what flavor it was supposed to be, but it tasted like pink lemonade to me. It had raspberries and lemon-flavored cream in the middle. I don't typically like pink lemonade, but I think I was so obsessed with the cookie flavor by that point, I just didn't care about the middle section.

This is the treat I miss most from Disney. It's not like we have neighborhood bakeries where I can go pick these up, and though they have very few ingredients, they are NOT easy to make and I'm a lazy cook. Oh well, gives me something to look forward to next trip. Let's just hope they are abundant in Disneyland!

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
