Disneyland Last Drained  ----

---- its Rivers of America seven years ago, so workers found a lot of accumulated stuff when it drained the green-dyed waterway in January. But the most unusual item by far was a computer tower, said Dan Chambers, a project manager at Disneyland. Workers are unsure how the tower and several discs got in the water path around Tom Sawyer Island.

Here are some of the other items found in the rivers:

* Half of a canoe from Davy Crockett’s Explorer Canoe ride.

* Dozens of plastic swords.

* Mardi Gras beads. The items were part of Tiana’s Showboat Jubilee, a show on the Mark Twain Riverboat on the rivers in the fall.

* Hundreds of cellular phones and walkie talkies.

* Hundreds of baby pacifiers.

* Hundreds of Mickey Hats.

* Too many sunglasses to count.

Rumors So Far, but…. ----

1.    Following the success of the live-action version of "Alice In Wonderland", Disney has made a seven-figure deal for the story of "Cinderella", which is also to be a live-action film.

2.    Disney is also going to be releasing a remake of "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea", (didn’t they already can this project??) directed by David Fincher

3.    as well as "Maleficent", which will be made by Tim Burton.

Your Land of Mickey Recipe :

Get the grill goin’ – and keep it hot!!

Sweet Florida Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Disney’s Vero Beach Resort

Ingredients:

  • 2 Pork Tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Sauce Marinade:

  • 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and minced
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 2 green onions thinly sliced (including tops)
  • 1 cup bottled cocktail sauce
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup Dijon style mustard
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar

Directions:   

1.    Prepare pork tenderloins by trimming them of any silver skin and fat; butter-flying them by cutting lengthwise down the center but not all the way through.

2.   Place tenderloins in a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set aside.

3.   In a microwavable bowl combine the garlic, lime zest, lime juice, green onion, cocktail sauce, brown sugar, mustard, honey, oil and vinegar. Stir to combine well;

4.   Microwave on high about three minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool slightly. Reserve 2/3 cup of the sauce marinade, cover and chill.

5.   Pour the rest over pork tenderloins in baking dish, taking care to coat evenly. Cover and chill for 4 to 6 hours, turning occasionally.

6.   When ready to grill, remove tenderloins from the baking dish and discard the used marinade.

7.   Grill over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 145 to 150 degrees, basting regularly with the 2/3 cup reserved sauce marinade.

8.   Remove the tenderloins from the grill when cooked. Let the tenderloins rest, loosely covered with foil, about 5 minutes before slicing thinly to serve.

Makes 4 servings. ******************************************

TEASER – 31MAY10

Weekly Trivia:

Q: What is Disneyland’s oldest (non-attraction) entertainment?

A: When Disneyland opened in 1955, there was lots of entertainment. One group stayed with the park and is still there every day: the Disneyland Band!!.

The band was originally hired for a two-week run, but has stayed.

The band has a repertoire of more than 400 musical numbers and has marched more than 3,500 miles marching around the park, according to the Disney Parks blog.

Members of the band will many times play in smaller groups, depending on the season and needs of the park. The two current smaller groups are the Hook & Ladder Co., which plays on Main Street U.S.A., and the Royal Street Bachelors in New Orleans Square.
