Wow, Edna, you must just be rolling in dough to afford that! I realize you don't have to pay for hotel fees and plane rides, but that's still gotta be pretty expensive. Those types of amusement parks are notorious for being extremely pricey!

Pardon my ignorance (the only time I was ever at that park was when I was seven years old), but how much does that pass cost?

Well they have a yearly pass that is over $200, it covers for parking and discounts in reataurants and stores. Then They have another one call the seasonal pass is a little bit less but they have blackout days for when the pass get busy..(wich I really dont care for going then anyways). That one has the discounts on restaurants but doesnt include the parking!

Thanks, Edna. I'm hoping to take the family there in about two years or so. Since my little one will be three in September I want to wait until she can enjoy it a bit more, although my oldest is beginning to complain since he'll be twelve in December. Decisions, decisions...........

Actually, it would be great if TD members could post something they learned or tried with their cakes (unless I missed this in the TD rules). Even if it is just a sentence or two about something...I think many of us would really appreciate that... icon_rolleyes.gif

That would have to happen AFTER the voting.. hence voting blindly... nobody will know who's cake is who's to be fair (except the poster of the cakes of course but we aren't allowed to vote)

Good morning, all! So that's what tutes are! icon_lol.gif I thought you were bringing out the trumpets to announce your arrival! icon_lol.gif Hence my question regarding the spelling "toot"? and whether or not it came from a musical instrument. icon_biggrin.gif

Edna, I'm sorry to hear that you have Lupus. Does it affect you in any other way besides being zonked out after all the cakeks?

Christi, your stacking cake came out great.

BTW, I got to attend our first meeting of the NJ Cake Club yesterday. We had a terrific time. Just wish my commute had been terrific as well. It was suppose to be a 45 minute drive each way according to mapquest, but I think the directions were off a bit. Got a little lost going there and it took closer to an hour to get there and coming home I got very lost and the nice man who accidentally rear-ended me at a stop sign was nice enough to show me how to get to the Garden State Parkway. Once there I called my DH to find out how to get home. lol It was an adventure and I got a rose and a rose bud out of it (as well as a lot of new friends)! lol Oh, I made it home in about an hour and forty minutes!

Oh yeah, no damage to me and just a very slight scratch to my...er...DH's bumper (I was driving his car).

Well we have the minivan (registered to my hubby) that I use daily as I have the three kids, and the four door sedan which hubby takes to the train station and uses regularly (but somehow we registered under my name). Being that he was home with the kids yesterday, I took the car and left him the van.

Funny the way things work out. Of course the car is only two years old! And the van is already seven, so guess which one I'd love to replace. lol
