Kiss the Streets of America
Good-bye
We are sewing and making things all the time
but this time it was to say good-bye to the
Streets of America.
We love candid shots of people or group
events. Also looking for old buildings, cars,
and trains to incorporate into our gallery.
We have some great photos of Disney Springs
2016 and some nice Christmas trees.
Just having fun at Disney World December 2016. Had to take my Donald Duck Cola bottle around the world at Epcot. The picture of
Joanie with Katelyn at Epcot. We stayed for the Candlelight Processional and Katelyn was singing in it. She was at the top next to
the star. We went to Disney Springs, it was formerly called Downtown Disney. We had to stop at a store and see our new friends Jake
and Stewart. Fun to talk to these guys and you have to try on a hat or two. Stewart said he loved his job because he could dress in
1950’s clothing. We got some nice pictures and got to see the new drone show. It was over 100 drones that had LED lights and they
would make a Christmas tree and then they decorated it with ornaments. You just have to stop at the bakery Amorette’s. We made
a new friend Jade. The first time we got to stop in was not long after
they opened. Jade showed us how to pipe scallops. She just started
on the side of her work stand and never messed up one of them. She
told us all about Amorette’s and we got to see them make large
flowers out of tinted white chocolate for the top of the cakes. You
just have to stop in to Amorette’s. It’s behind the the Lego store.
We went to the Glass Knife in Winter
Park, Florida. They have decadent
desserts and savory menu for breakfast
and lunch. We loved looking at the
history of the Glass Knifes and the
Knifes.
From the 1920s through the 1940s, Dur-X glass
fruit and cake knives were sold for use in
kitchens under a 1938 US Patent. Before the
wide availability of inexpensive stainless steel
cutlery they were used for cutting citrus fruit,
tomatoes, and other acidic foods, the flavor of
which would be tainted by steel knives and
which would stain
ordinary steel knives.
They were molded in
tempered glass with
ground edges. Now
this is very Vintage.

Christmas time at Disney Springs. What could be more magical? Not only does the sound of Christmas music fill the air, but
there are sights and smells you might not encounter any other time of the year. Even though it is Florida and you don’t have
the crisp, cold air, you still get that feeling that it could snow any time and that Santa’s visit is just around the corner. Typical
of Disney, they entire Disney Springs area joins in with the holiday decorating and the feeling of “good will to men” fills every
greeting as you stroll through the area.
