It's always something. Never nothing. And hardly anything at all.

Lately, there's been a front-page discussion going on in our city and province about the possible reduction, or outright ban on plastic bags at most major grocery stores, etc. There's the regular arguments about "plastic v.s paper", the environmental issues now causing people to decide to "bring their own", or to buy reuseable ones that some stores and markets now offer to their customers, and so on. For us, we do a pretty big weekly shopping trip, and although we bring back the used plastic bags for recycling, we still let them bag in plastic at our Safeway. But just this week, I bought one of their new 99 cent bags for other trips there, for smaller lists to carry home? And I was actually surprised how big the bag was! So, they've got us for one bag so far, heh heh. What do you use/like/prefer in a bag to carry your stuff home? And why?

That was a great, surprise reaction I read here. Good for her being herself, heh heh.

"That's How You Know" from the soundtrack of Enchanted.

I was really hoping that this flat would still be open and running, when we went there in TPR's June 2006 tour. But it wasn't, and it looked pretty sad back then, lol. All we could do is look at it. And move on... Sorry to see a really original flat, go.

Your Daughters and Your Sons - The Ducks

Earth Day is also the Birthday of... Eddie Albert! "Green Acres is the place for me.."

Albacore tuna is... interesting.

Great trip report, thanks for sharing it! And this is one of The Parks I am so much looking forward to, on the TPR Europe tour, starting late June. Your great photos are making me even more excited, that I am going to actually be there, lol.

A friend recently asked me, "And how many months have you two been together now?" (They really didn't know...) So, I figured it out.... 432 months!!! Happy 36th Anniversary to me and my David! (And Happy Earth Day, too.)

Playland - Coaster. (How easy was that, huh?)

Almost time for cocktails!

Nice cabin.

Very nice jingles, both of them. Although it appeared like CWs advert was way more low-key than the IN YOUR FACE WITH INFORMATION style of KI, lol. Great pairing, Shane.

I think I'm almost down 20 lbs. now. Monday is the weekly weigh-in, but I'm pretty confident. and Confidence = Happy-ness.

We just bought this to replace a poor excuse called The Bullet. (ick) Around $35 with taxes... Guacamole!!! Looks nice, works great! (o:

Definitely one of my absolute Disney commercial favorites! And I had totally forgotten about it until I just played it here. A treat. SPOILER ALERT (The YouTube vid is back one page, 63.) The ending made me immediately laugh out loud. Caught me off. That was great, and a brilliant twist, even if you figured out what might be it's ending, lol. Thanks for sharing it.

I let him off the hook, when I saw the comma there. Still gai as I'll ever be.

^ That's what tinkerbell meant. Eliza blurted it out at tribal, once Jeff revealed what she had, wasn't "it," heh heh. Ooooooooooo the humanity of it all! (I want MORE blood, MORE wounds, MORE dashed pride!)

Once you start entering the attraction, how long is the total experience? Including all the pre-shows? Just thought I'd ask.

Darnit. It's in Nuremberg, which isn't on the TPR Europe tour, I think. Looks great. Worth one visit, if only for the novelty of it, lol.

Hearing the word "podcast" makes me think of "Invasion of The Body Snatchers" every time.

Only a bit soggier, lol.

Must go back. Must go back. Have to go back.
