Week in Review ~ 1/29/12

Welcome back to another Week in Review of Focused on the Magic!  We've had a really busy week, so let's take a look at the roundup of posts from this past week.
  • On Sunday we Revisited the Writer's Stop in Disney Hollywood Studios. Great cup of coffee and carrot cake, Yum!
  • Monday's post was Happy Chinese New Year with pictures of the beautiful China Pavilion in Epcot at Walt Disney World and my taste for Chinese beer!
  • Our Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop the theme this week was wildlife, and I shared pictures of the majestic tigers on the Maharaja Jungle Trek in Animal Kingdom!
  • On Thursday I shared 5 fun things from My Disney Bucket List!
  • On Photo Flashback Friday we flashed back to 1997 with a memorable picture of the first E~night & Buzz Lightyear's soft opening and a few fun factoids.
  • Saturday was Foodie Fare day with a DIY Disney Park Apple Strudel Recipe, detailed pictorial instruction and made complete with a Disney Parks video!

From around the web...
I read a very interesting and candid interview with John Lasseter on TotalFilm.com. Ever wonder about those Hawaiian shirts? Loved this quote from the article..
 I try and stay focused on what is important; the stories, the characters and the audience. Our role is to entertain people, and I hope, to make people laugh.  John Lasseter
New this week on Focused on the Magic...
In an effort to always improve Focused on the Magic, I introduced new blog bling this week: 
  • New linked social media Mickey head buttons for Google+ and Pininterest were added this week. Now we can stay even more connected:)
  • A new button was introduced for the Photo Flashback Friday Blog Hop. What do you think? Your feedback is always appreciated..
  • I brought back the weekly roundup button. Goofy's review button will return after I go through my recent Toy Story faze;) YeeHa!
  • All in a name: If you follow me on Facebook you may have noticed my name change to, Debra Ann. In an attempt to keep my kids, who are on Facebook and Twitter, from having to *friend* their mom and all her Disney friends, I have tried to avoid using my last name. I chose Deb -short for Debra. S - for my last name. Dis - which I thought at the time was Disney enough for my friends and obscure enough to make my kids happy. It has caused no end of confusion as a name, with messages asking me for my real name. On the boards I'm usually DebºoºS but that didn't convert to Facebook or Twitter well. So, I am now officially Debra Ann...or until the kids catch up with me;)  
    Coming up next week...
