Not to nitpick, but Dole Whips aren't dairy free. They are lactose free, but still are derived from a milk protein. So, if you are only lactose intolerant, they are find. But if you have a dairy allergy then it won't be.

/nitpick off.
Loved your party! How fun!!! You did a fabulous job on the decor. Where did you get the Mickey head punch out thing?
I'm dying to see the nesting dishes. Pictures?
Darn! Darn! Darn! I usually have at least some dairy products during our vacation. I just have to do it in moderation so I don't get a headache or nosebleed.
I got the Mickey head punch at Hobby Lobby but I think I've seen them at Disney.
I didn't think to take pictures of the nesting casserole dishes. If I remember, I'll take a picture in the next couple of days.
OMG - I am totally addicted to your trip report. I stumbled upon it when checking out the DIS Boards for the first time and have totally enjoyed reading about you and your family. My son and I have been to Disney 4 times and are returning this June (my hubby opts to stay home he hates crowds and doesn't feel the Disney magic
) It'sOK though we don't have to find anyone to take care of the animals while we are gone and I don't have to worry about him not having fun. We are staying at CBR for the first time - can I ask you a few quick questions? Anyone feel free to respond, I can take all the advice I can get. How big is the fridge - my son is a HUGE milk drinker and I was thinking of either using Garden Grocer or getting a car ride from the airport with a stop at the grocery store. Could I fit a gallon of milk in? Two half gallons? Also I have my ADRs but any suggestions on great quick service dining? We are going to try to hit Pecos Bills this year - we've never tried it before. We are going for 9 days from June 4-12, arrive farily early on the 4th and leave fairly late on the 12th. My son is about to turn 15 and still feels the Disney magic as strong as ever.
Thanks!
Welcome! I'm always glad to see new readers. What the heck is wrong with your husband? John acts like he doesn't care if we go to Disney World or not but then asks me if the rates are out yet so we can book the next one.
Hey, our trips will overlap by a day! 9 days at Disney is great. We like to take some time to spend at the resort and CBR has some fun stuff to do.
I used Garden Grocer last year and will be using them again this trip. I don't know for sure that a gallon of milk would fit in the fridge but I know that a half gallon (probably even two or three) would fit in fridge.
My favorite counter service eateries:
Magic Kingdom:
Pecos Bill's for darn sure! Love me some sauteed mushrooms and onions and the cheese sauce for dipping my fries.
Pinocchio's Village Haus has some decent pizza and their chicken strips are good.
Epcot:
We are wimpy eaters and stick to either Liberty Tree Tavern in World Showcase and Electric Umbrella in Future World.
Animal Kingdom:
Pizzafari has a really good chicken caesar salad. Yummy! John also likes the Italian Stack Sandwich.
Flame Tree BBQ has good everything.
Hollywood Studios:
I'm not too big of a fan of the Hollywood Studios counter service food. So, we usually eat at Toy Story Pizza Planet so I can at least get a salad with my pizza.
