  1. http://news.health.com/2012/11/26/low-calorie-sugar-cookies/

     

     Some holiday sugar cookies have close to 200 calories each! Enjoying a couple of them won’t affect my healthy habits, but enjoying one too many can really add up. Here’s a lower calorie sugar cookie recipe that keeps the sweet treat’s delicious taste while lowering calories and fat. Each cookie has only 65 calories!

  2. I just wanted to say that I really enjoy reading on FF. I don't post much, but I enjoy reading about everyone's

    adventures.  I also read other forums, but FF is different and unique.  Everyone here are very welcoming and are people

    who care and will actually be there for anyone in need. Example: the little girl whose pins were stolen.  All of you that

    stepped up and sent pins, your awesome! I tip my hat to you. Maybe someday I will meet and become friends with 

    some here.

  3. I agree with you Ray. 

    The old fast pass system seemed a little more fair for all.

     

    I can only visit one time a year for vacation. So for my

    money it would be nice to enjoy most of the attractions without

    having to plan months in advance. 

    With all the restaurants booked up months in advance it just

    SMB. I agree that everyone has their own preferred way to 

    enjoy Disney, and there is nothing wrong with that.  I just don't

    think I can justify the cost anymore. 

  4. "This type of planning goes against just about everything we like about vacation."

     

    I totally agree with this. This is the reason I will probably never return to WDW.  unfortunately.  I am not

    going to spend that kind of money and not be able to ride the bigger rides, because we are not able

    to obtain fastpasses .  ( I know Disney doesn't care about the non planners like me. They make plenty of money regardless.)

  5. Is the brew temp adjustable on minis or only the larger keurigs?

    Few years ago I had expresso machine, French press, drip & perk coffee makers. I'd grind whole bean to "required" size.

    Guess it did not take much to amaze me but even using beans from same bag, the coffee tasted a little different. The first cup of the day always went down fast. I enjoy any of it. When I want to bore all y'alls more I'll type the story of Mimi's conversion to a coffee addict, in Disney MGM.

    No there isn't any temp adjustment on the mini. It is very simple to use,.... pour water in, put in the K cup and hit Brew.
