Yes when I was little I was scared of sharks in the pool!! I know exactly what Molly was talking about! I was a fearful kid 😂

@lighthouse_23_ Жыл бұрын

Yes! Same! My imagination would run away with me and when I swam to the deep end of our pool in Florida I also imagined a great white shark there. That water was deep at 9ft and darker then the rest and in that moment there was no one else in the pool, I remember that as a small child!

@sethduffy8140 Жыл бұрын

Yup same here, but it wasn’t just for sharks it was also turtles, I remember a hotel once having mosaic tile turtles and I blame that for my imagination running away with it

I was also a kid that was scared of the imaginary, but very real shark in the deep end of the pool. It was only ever there of I was in the pool by myself though.

I thought the strawberry sauce was disgusting. I was expecting it to be a "creamy-type" texture, but instead was all chunky-like. It was gross. The chocolate ganache (or whatever it's called) was good though.

Just want to tell you how much I appreciate all your hard work, and effort yourself and the rest of the Mammoth club put in to all of these wonderful videos. I enjoy your videos very much all three of you together. Then having videos with Alan are just great, and to top it off have videos with just Molly GREAT! I look forward to all of these videos. Thank you mammoth club for all your hard work. Your all much appreciated.( but love Molly) 🤤

I just got back from my first trip to POFQ and it will NOT be my last. My daughter and I loved how compact it was, easy to get to the food/drinks from anywhere, ONE bus stop!, and beignets. Can't be beat for moderates and worth the small amount more over the Values, for us at least! LOVED IT!!

Just had the perfect Molly day at CA Disneyland parks. Lobster Nachos at Lamplight Lounge, eating Mickey beignets, while watching Fantasmic and Wondrous Journeys Fireworks. P.S. It was the first time I actually got to see the new fireworks since I always go on weekdays or with small children who can't stay up late, and Molly is absolutely right. It is literally the best fireworks/show I have ever seen at Disneyland ever! I absolutely got choked up too.

As a pastry chef I can say Molly is correct-a beignet batter is different than a doughnut. And fully agree that they are amazing! Also side note that was not true king cake either, I’d say it was cinnamon coffee cake with icing resembling king cake. Thanks for another amazing video! Also this is my request for Alan to recreate that burger at home. I love his instagram food posts

And probably most important, we were a lovely boat ride away from Disney Springs, of which my family is a HUGE fan! I would definitely stay there again.

Yes! As a kid, I was always scared of a potential great white shark in the deep end of the pool. Sometimes I was concerned about one in my bathtub too. Obviously not logical. But…with no one mentioning this fear, my kids have also been concerned about sharks in pools.

@jenniferduehring7311 Жыл бұрын

OMG! You are so right!! Beignets are definitely different than a donut. Beignets done right have a slightly different texture and weight (yes, they don’t taste as heavy and they don’t weigh as much) than a donut. That’s because their ingredients are slightly different. They have more eggs and more yeast. That makes them lighter, puffier and with a middle that has a doughy bounce. Thanks for reminding me of the goodness of having the powdered sugar on (and all around) them. And I agree - savory might be nice but the classic is best! Cheers to the bag shake!!

My fiancé' and I were actually staying there at the same time as you guys! We were at Hollywood Studio's during that storm. She insisted on the French Quarter instead of Shades of Green and I'm so happy she did. The quick service and the drinks are fantastic, the jazz music playing sets a calm and relaxed environment, and the resort is so small and quiet that it really helps feel like we were getting away from the chaos of the parks. Plus beignets and a latte from the café' is the best way to start a Disney morning.
