Disney's All Star Movies Breakfast Review

I stayed at All Star Movies recently & wanted to review the different breakfasts I chose. On my last full day in Florida I decided to try the big platter.

I was so excited to try this my entire trip but was VERY disappointed.

You get scrambled eggs, bacon, a Mickey waffle, biscuit, sausage & home fries.

First off they pre-cook the eggs so they are sitting on a hot plate getting over cooked. The bacon tasted like rubber. The biscuit was nothing to write home about either. The things I loved most were the waffle & home fries. If you are expecting a lot then definitely don't order this breakfast.

I prefer to get to the Food Court in between 7:00am-7:30am ready to go. I would not order this again unless it was being cooked fresh like you get at Kona Cafe.

I will write later on my other breakfast choices later this week.

What is your opinion on the All Star Resort Breakfasts??

Disney's Whispering Canyon Strawberry Banana Bread Recipe....

Disney's Whispering Canyon Strawberry Banana Bread Recipe

It has been awhile since I posted a recipe. I wanted to try something new that sounded interesting & this fit the bill perfectly. I wanted to try this in muffin form as well as a regular loaf. This makes 2 loaves or a lot of jumbo muffins. I personally think it is better to make these as muffins but make it the way you prefer.

1 cup butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups ripe bananas (about 6 medium size), mashed
4 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
3 cups flour
1 1/2 pounds frozen sliced strawberries, thawed (I used fresh)

Grease two 9- by 5-inch loaf pans. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Incorporate the bananas and scrape the sides of the bowl with the spatula. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each one. Set aside.

In another bowl, mix tgether the salt, baking soda, and flour. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and stir until fully incorporated. Add the strawberries. Pour into prepared pansd and bake for 60 to 75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely on a rack before inverting onto a plate.

Spotlight on Disney’s Yacht Club

Spotlight on Disney’s Yacht Club

Please welcome back Christine Battista. She wrote a quick overview on the Disney Yacht Club hotel for us!

One of Walt Disney World’s deluxe resorts, Disney Yacht Club, is a
nautical-themed property that is upscale enough to please adults while still being very kid friendly! A moderate size resort with a little more than 600 rooms allows for fantastic customer service.

The resort features top notch dining in its award winning Steak
restaurant, the Yachtsman Steakhouse. The Yachtsman Steakhouse

features amazing steaks and seafood and kids are more than welcome.

Stormalong Bay, a 3-acre water bay, allows guests to board a boat to Epcot or Disney's Hollywood Studios, embark on a Pirate adventure cruise, or rent water vehicles for your enjoyment. Also, enjoy a guided fishing excursion or private viewing of Epcot's nightly Illuminations.

The pool is a fantastic one-of-a-kind pool where you can slowly enter in the gently sloping beach entry. Sand covers the entire bottom of the pool to enhance your experience. The coolest shipwreck lands on the beach where kids can enjoy the tallest water slide in all of the resorts. Adults and teens alike can relax in the currents of the lazy river that circles the pool.

Not only is it the quietest resort I have stayed at on property, the newly renovated rooms are incredible. The ship’s wheel on the headboards and anchors throughout your room add to the nautical theme. All rooms have 2 queen beds or 1 king sized bed, and some have a very comfy day bed. Each room also includes a mini refrigerator, coffeemaker, TV, and safe. These rooms feel very large and can fit 5 adults and a crib.
