Food And Wine Thus Far

A photo drop of my Epcot Food and Wine Festival excursions thus far.

Double rainbows on the way into the parks!

Sporting my Magic Band with the Small World cover, an Argento Alchemy original silver and braided silk bracelet, a silk thread friendship bracelet (that I share with my Mom actually) from J Crew's past seasons, and my freshly loaded food and wine bracelet. You load it up with money so you can just hold it up and have it scanned. No fumbling with wallets which you would otherwise do a lot. It also helps keep you on budget, when the money you loaded is gone... You're done!

Love walking past the Dance Hall on the way into Epcot... memories...

Sister shot.

And because someone was nice enough to offer to take a photo of the three of us, Allen got in on the action too.

Different Epcot trip with other family members this time. :)

The view out the top floor windows of the American Pavillion in the Chase Banking members lounge. Just flash your bank card and your in! You'll enjoy a free quirky soda extravaganza, access to a place you never normally get to, A/C, nice restrooms, and free charging stations for your electronics.

Another view shot overlooking the concert stage with Spaceship Earth in the distance.

Spaceship Earth.

The Brazil stand plays lively music and is cheerful even on the rainiest of days.

The "banks" of the French Pavillion overlooking the lagoon and the Morrocan, Japanese, American, and Italian pavilloins (respectively when going counter-clockwise).

Playing with the viewers.

Aaah, Paris...

And a lovely lit night shot for good measure.

Kissers,

Disney Day: Dinner at Sana

The Husband and I have been trying to make time to "date" each other more and the other. Ought he surprised me with dinner at Sana, the Indian/ African restaurant on the Vacation Club Kidani Village side of Animal Kingdom's lodge.

Since it was date night I made and effort and trotted out the heels and a cute new clutch I love.

We were both pretty tired looking cause we were both pretty tired but it was still fun. I loved this wall of lanterns at the entrance.

The whole resort has these wonderful quotes painted on the walls throughout. I really loved this touch! This one is in the main entrance.

The lobby was beautiful.

And of course I went straight to the windows to look for animals on the "Savannah." Do you see the giraffe?

Pic heavy animal sightings and food goodness after the jump!

Wanderlust Wednesday Foodie Edition: Proper Pie Co.

The other day my Husband and I were craving some honest to goodness British crumpets... Mmm... Back in Seattle we'd just head on down to Pikes Place Market to the awesome crumpet dedicated bakery there.

(So so good, if you're ever that way go!)

But where to go here inOrlando

A quick internet search lead us to Proper Pie Company.

So we popped in the car.

It's a fantastic authentically British and totally yummy bakery.

They bake a variety of sweet and savory pies everyday and even do fish and chips every Friday.

The bakery itself is pretty small and informal with the kitchen area visible and in a tiny roadside plaza but the food...

So yummmy!

They have pies coming out of the oven, pies baked and frozen for travel (One Brit in front of us in line drives all the way down from North Carolina), and pies baked that morning that are chilled in the refrigerated display with along with Brit desserts and drinks.

If they don't have what you want hot, no problem.

They'll make it toasty in a jiffy.

They also have all the yummy shelf goods. Like the British Oxo gravy and my favorite candy, the crunchie bar.

They even had the British Easter candy in stock for the holiday!

(I was sure to pick one up to tuck in my Husband's basket.)

And this Vimto I tried, it's like a blue slushie! One of my favorite things!

If you're in a hurry to fill your tummy, like we were, you can take your hot pie outside to a little picnic table. The staff will bring anything being heated out to you along with some HP (kind of like a British A1 steak sauce).

The pie above was a yummy curry one but every kind we tried was sooo delicious that we couldn't pick a favorite.

And if you want to pack it up and bring it home everything heats to perfection still.

Even this Scotch egg was still yummy heated up at home.

(It's a hard boiled egg covered in a breaded sausage mixture that's lightly fried and sometimes has bacon thrown in there too for good measure.)

Of course, they had crumpets and scones too but we ended up saving those for another day. Lol.

Proper indeed!

If you're local, go!

(They ship and cater too!)
