Summer is here and it started out with a Bounty Hunter & a Clone Trooper

Summer is here, and we recently went to Disney for the final weekend of the 2011 Star Wars Weekend at Dinsey's Hollywood Studios. Sam was rockin with excitement as we entered the park, voicing who he was hoping to see and what types of Lego Star Wars sets he wanted.  And low and behold he met Boba Fett!

 Sam informed Boba that his nickname was Boba, that he is a Bounty Hunter just like him, but only on the Paintball Field. He also started singing a song by MC Chris called Fetts Vette, and this is what he sang to him : "My backpack's got jets

Well I'm Boba the Fett
Well I bounty hunt for Jabba Hutt,
To finance my 'Vette ,wicky wicky woo" . I was laughing so hard that he was singing this, but at the same time I was so excited that he was meeting an Idol and having such a great time at Disney.

Star Tours had been closed for refurbishment, and reopened on May 20th, 2011. Rumors were flying that there was more than 50 ways to ride. And the crazy math and nerdiness started to run crazy within my Husband - And Star Tours had to be ridden the 50+ times until he had seen it all. So, after riding it 6 times, he finally did the math and found that he had seen it all!! And thank goodness, because we were going to be at the park until close with him riding it over and over again. Here is the breakdown, there are 2 different Introductions, 3 different beginning planets, 3 different middle actions, and 3 different ending planets =54 different ways to see and ride Star Tours.

We were accompanied this weekend with family and friends,

and after making sure everyone had done what that wanted at the park, it was us girls turn to do something. Jess (#2) & I had seen on a Disney Food Blog about a "Cupcake Crawl" throughout all of Disney Property, and thus our mission,"to find all the cupcakes within Hollywood Studios"!! Here is the First Cupcake we could find- Darth Vader Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake. And all we can say is Amazing!! It was the perfect amount of Chocolate Ganache filling in the center to complement the Chocolate Peanut Butter frosting the Chocolate shavings on top. And yes, this was so large that a fork was needed in order to eat this.

 

After enjoying this cupcake we decided to ask if we were able to obtain the recipe for the cupcake. At the time there was no on able to directly handover the recipe, but was assured that if they could get it, it would be sent on to me for personal use. After arriving back home and emailing Disney with my request, I recieved an email back with not just 1 but 5 different Disney Cupcake Recipes! Can you hear the squeals of excitment?
