    Trying to keep up with the weight loss wagon......yet again (new title, same journal)

    I would actually be very interested in hearing what symptoms you were having that led you to this diet. I am experiencing a lot of things that have led me to believe that meat may not be my friend, and gluten may be something to avoid as well! Feel free to email me, or send me a private message...

    Food Photography Tips

    There are so many tips for "Professional" food photography out there, but as far as taking shots of REAL food in restaurants, there really isn't that much help to be had! I have a travel/food blog, and just purchased a Nikon D3100 for my upcoming trip to Disney. Does anyone have any words of...

    Oh Sweet Mother of Bread Pudding...What have I got myself into? 9/26 Update!

    Dawn, as far as contacted the Swan and letting them know how horrible their service was, I filled our the survey that came shortly after my stay, and really explained in great detail my qualms! As for Disney, I contacted special diets and let them know how wonderful all of the disney chefs were...

    Oh Sweet Mother of Bread Pudding...What have I got myself into? 9/26 Update!

    I've enjoyed breakfast at Garden Grove a few times, but I have to say that we will probably not be going back. The food is fantastic, but I'm right along with you on the Swan/Dolphin service. I do not want to support that hotel; they are terribly inconsiderate! The last time we tried to have...

    Kouzzina?

    I am a HUGE Kouzzina fan for breakfast! We wound up eating there two times on our trip last year, and have reservations for breakfast this year, as well! Although, reservations probably aren't necessary, because it was never packed when we went. I have a review with pictures in my review. The...

    Just Back From A Norwegian Cruise - Food Doesn't Even Compare!!

    I think you have a really good point, which is why I will be more selective of the cruise line I choose next time. The entertainment, like I've mentioned numerous times, was top notch. But I love my food, and don't want to compromise that! A smaller ship would be able to handle things better...

    Healthy eaters in WDW

    I get migraines all the time! And unfortunately, there are so many things with MSG in them, it would almost be impossible to rid yourself of all of it! When I went to Disney last year I was a vegan, and they do count that as a special diet. They marked it with Allergy. It really is easy just to...

    Just Back From A Norwegian Cruise - Food Doesn't Even Compare!!

    Thanks so much for your advice!! We did Norwegian strictly for the entertainment they offered and will not make the mistake again!! I am really intrigued by Cunard actually, and we are thinking of taking a luxury cruise next year! Which would you recommend for entertainment as well as food?

    Healthy eaters in WDW

    Disney is ready to handle ANY allergy or food sensitivity. They even told me if I didn't want my food cooked in canola oil they could switch to Olive Oil! The key is to definitely let them know. When you make your reservations, just put on there that you have an allergy, and perhaps even contact...

    Healthy eaters in WDW

    I wrote a blog about healthy offerings in Disney. I tried to do as much research as I could before my trip in 69 days! Hope this helps. I really try to eat organic as much as possible, and sometimes when that is unavailable I will do mostly gluten free. I've been on so many different types of...

    Oh Sweet Mother of Bread Pudding...What have I got myself into? 9/26 Update!

    I couldn't agree more! Way to explain it...I love food and want others to feel even taste that love as they eat it! This is going to be a fantastic review :goodvibes

    It's so true!! Even when we honeymooned in Europe, I had to make a stop at Disneyland Paris! Cannot wait to go back...to any of them!

    Just Back From A Norwegian Cruise - Food Doesn't Even Compare!!

    Being the live and breathe Disney fan that I am, I couldn't help but compare our cruise last week aboard the Norwegian Epic with the countless Disney vacations I have been on. While I've never cruised on Disney Cruise Lines, this was only my second cruise. The food on board, even in the...

    Would I Like a Disney Cruise?

    We actually had three days at sea, and didn't arrive in Nassau until 12:30pm one day, so we had lunch on the boat 4 times. Does Disney even offer upcharge lunch options? Even so, the price really wasn't my main concern on the Norwegian cruise. Salesy attitudes and lack of any quiet space at...
