Hello, and Welcome to MW! It bothers me that the term "giveaway" could even be used to remotely describe what RAK is. The person who created this wonderful idea is Dahulagirl - a beloved friend to many here in the MW community and a beloved family member. She passed away yesterday. So, when you see posts mentioning a "RAK" here in the lounge from this day forward, please remember to think about kindness, generosity, and selflessness. That is what a RAK is to me. Thank you Dahulagirl. You are an angel who will be missed. - Alicewhoareyou  543.9 #213 6:23PM

Bump bc a year ago Carsland was ALL the talk. The chance to preview it was pretty cool. Remember how exciting it was to see sneak peek pics, speculate and then finally how cool it was when our MWers went, took pics and shared with us. A new land! Wow! Thanks disneyland and thanks MW for sharing with us kids at home all over the world! - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1839.5 #43 8:46PM

Hi. Will you guys be doing one of these again? Also do you need a parking pass to park at Hojo if we aren't staying there? - ceecee32  185.7 #1836 1:33PM

If I finish packing for utah by then :) - MayBie  1864.3 #42 5:40PM

I posted this question earlier, but no one has commented. Is this the first time Disneyland hosts Dapper Day? - OynnhoJ  92.5 #3160 4:14PM

Dapper Day is independently organized and not associated with the Walt Disney Company. I believe it is the second annual Dapper Day for all Disney parks, but there is also one in the fall for Disneyland only. - Geekery  227.1 #1308 8:57PM

This was also included... :-) Loaded Baked Potato Soup (Serves 6) 1 pound bacon, roughly chopped 1 medium yellow onion diced, 1 large carrot peeled and diced 3/4 cup diced celery 4 large Russet potatoes peeled and diced 4 medium red potatoes diced 1/4 cup flour 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock, Coarse salt, freshly ground pepper, to taste 4 cups heavy whipping cream Optional garnishes: chopped chives, bacon bits, sour cream, shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese 1. In a 6- to 8-quart stockpot over medium heat, fry bacon until crisp. 2. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels, reserving half for garnish. In bacon fat, cook onions, carrots, and celery until the onions are translucent. Add potatoes and cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. 3. Whisk in flour and stir constantly over low heat until the flour is cooked and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add chicken stock and half of the bacon. Season with salt and pepper. 4. Over medium-high heat, bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 25 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. Mash some of the potatoes for thicker, creamier texture. Add whipping cream and simmer for 5 minutes. 5. Adjust thickness by adding water or stock. Soup should have a creamy consistency. 6. Season to taste and garnish with toppings. Cooks’ notes: Soak diced potatoes in cold water until ready to use to keep them from turning brown. To make bacon easier to chop, lightly freeze.

Ok, in the interest of knowing myself, I Googled that corn starch substitution. http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/glutenfreecookingtips/qt/Corn-Starch-Tips.htm Basically, cut the amount in half, so a 1/8 cup corn starch, and mix it with some of the broth before you add it, so it doesn't make lumps. If it were me, I'd probably skip it, and just use more potatoes mashed up. 8) Hope that helps! - ThatKimberly  335.5 #461 8:26PM
