I recently spoke with my friend, the talented Michael Christian. Michael is a Texas native and is a successful struggling actor (his words, not mine) and author. He recently published The Princess, which was published twice and an homage to Snow White. The difference is the artwork. Pirates Lair, another one of his books, was published in England by Austin McCulley Inc.His works can be found on Amazon and he can be reached on Facebook.I know you will enjoy listening to him.

This is a great addition to the shoulder Porgs and Baby Groot, and this one can go trick-or-treating with you! – https://dlnewstoday.com/2021/09/photos-new-the-nightmare-before-christmas-zero-shoulder-plush-appears-at-disneyland-resort/ Feedback Hi you guys, loved this weeks discussion topic since I have celiac disease and must eat gluten free. Disneyland does an amazing job and I always find great food. Just wanted to throw out another tip if people ask, the special diets phone number currently doesn't work but you can email special.diets@disneyland.com and they answered my questions and I was actually able to pre order gluten free Monte Cristo sandwiches 2 weeks before our reservation at Blue Bayou. And when we got there our waitress already knew our order it was wonderful! ❤️ Monica
