#10

Today marked the 10th visit to Disneyland for Ms. Penny! My 7th. Mommy and Penny had to squeeze in one last weekday visit before going on our new work adventure next week. Today's memorable activity was a special screening of "Sleeping Beauty."  If you were an annual passholder today you had the opportunity to attend a special screening and stay 2 hours after the park closes.  I thought there would be a huge line for this so we drove down early. When I arrived at the front gate there didn't appear to be a ton of people. I got to enter the park at 930amand was one of the very first people in the park. I immediately booked it to the Opera House to register to get my wristband for the movie. I ran up to an employee to ask where the line was and he said I was the first person. I've never been the first person before! I got our wristbands and we had time to get in line for Mickey! What good luck!! We also visited with other characters before seeing the movie at 11am. This was Penny's third movie and she once again did really well! After the movie we got hot dogs and went on some rides til her little eyes could stay awake no longer. We didn't make it to the extra after park hours but we had fun just the same!

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

My Favorite Gourmet Trucks

As of last night, I have now tried 18 food trucks! Only 60 more to go! My friends, Krueger and Kristy joined me at 55 Degree Wine in Atwar Village to try the always busy Grilled Cheese Truck! I have run into the truck a few times now but something has always prevented me from trying their food. Mostly the really, really long lines!! This time the hour wait wasn't so bad with two girls to gossip with. By the time we got to the front we were ready to execute our food plan. Kristy took lead and placed an order for 3 sandwiches (the brie, the mac-n-cheese and the rib meat) plus the dessert sandwich and some tator tots!!! I was a bit bummed that they didn't have the sandwich I went for, the Harvest sandwich but the 3 sandwiches we got more than made up for everything. I was glad to try this truck with 2 girls because we split the sandiches in 3rds which was awesome because I got to try a variety of their sandwiches. Now I must add the Grilled Cheese Truck to my list of fa...
