Free Taxi?

Walt Disney World is currently testing a Free Taxi service for guests staying in a Walt Disney World resort, and dining at a Signature location.

Currently, the test phase includes three signature restaurants:Artist Point at Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort, Flying Fish Cafe at Disney's Boardwalk Inn and Jiko at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge.

So far, this is a super popular option, to the guests that have been able to experience the Complimentary Taxi Service at Walt Disney World Resort.

The Disney Buses are excellent, but when ONLY needed for a dining reservation....a free taxi would be a much preferred option :)

Recipe: O'hana Bread Pudding

STOP THE PRESS!!!!

Have you ever been to O'hana at Disney's Polynesian Resort. Well, if you have, then you know the goodness of the Bread Pudding....but if you have not, I swear to you, it's worth driving there RIGHT NOW from where ever you live :)

So, it makes my mouth water, as I type, but, I thought that it would be sinful if I did not share with you this fabulous recipe.

Now, let me tell you that I tried it, and I am not a "candy boiler" kind of person.....so I burnt it.And when I say I burnt it, I mean that I had to throw the pan away. Not kidding.
