My Favorite Color is October

Posted on

What a perfect time of year October is and today was a great day to spend time with my daughter and family. We took a ride to Hicks Nurseries and spent hours walking around and enjoying this Sunday.

We were surrounded by color and Holiday Decoration Ideas, so much to choose from. There was a Hay Ride and even a small animal feeding and petting station.

Pumpkins, pumpkins and more pumpkins, The kids had a great day, what a wonderful way to spend some time outside and enjoying the season.

After all that walking around, we got hungry and it was a toss between Italian or Mexican food for lunch. The kids won and Mexican is was, we enjoyed a great meal at Tocolo Cantina, tortilla soup, shrimp ceviche, guacamole and chips. The kids love the Jarritos fruit punch.

There is always room for dessert and Mexican Hot Chocolate. We shared the Churro Sundae and the Sorbet Trio because everyone knows that calories don’t count on the weekends!!.

Disney Epcot’s Food And Wine Festival

Posted on

When I went to Disney Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival the thought in my mind was I don’t want to look back and say I wish I had eaten that.

I had a fabulous time with my daughter and her friends, going from country to country tasting the food of the world. My tip is to make sure you share with friends or family because you will not be able to eat the world alone no matter how much you would like to. The only thing better than talking about food is eating food. Make sure to get yourself a Epcot tray which is so helpful holding food and drink as you maneuver around the countries.

Disney Epcot know that nothing brings people together like good food and drink.

Julia Child said People who like to eat are the best people and we all know that good people and good food means a good time. But don’t forget, while you are stuffing your face, Epcot has loads of rides to enjoy, yes I do look a little nervous but truly I was having the time of my life.

You will eat good food and you will feel good. My favorite country was France, but all the countries are amazing in their own right and offer the most delicious foods from their land.

After tasting the world and enjoying the rides, music and sights we decided that Mexico was were we would have dinner. I have been to Epcot Mexico before and I was so happy to return. I got the Salmon on a mixed Salad, I thought I would not finish it I was wrong.

I took my daughter to Epcot when she was 7 years old and this trip my daughter took me to Epcot. Hold my hand, I will go anywhere with you. I hope you take the time to enjoy Disney Epcot Food and Wine Festival with your family and friends. Life is meant for good friends and great adventures.
