food IS a theme park
As if we needed another reason to stock up on Disney merch!
Mickey Plush
From adorable accessories to must-have mugs, it seems like our Disney collection is constantly expanding! And now, we have ANOTHER reason to snag a few more items from our wishlist!
We’re heading to a galaxy far, far away!
Millennium Falcon
We’re super excited about the new Star Wars hotel, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser that’s currently under construction outside of Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Once it’s completed, the hotel will offer guests an immersive Star Wars experience that takes theming to the next level!
Now downgraded from a hurricane, Tropical Storm Isaias is drawing close to the Florida east coast.

On Saturday, a pre-landfall state of emergency was declared for the state of Florida. While Isaias has been downgraded to a tropical storm, it is still sustaining winds of 65 miles per hour as it approaches the Florida coast.
We’re taking you on a trip to a jungle in a faraway place…well, Adventureland in Disneyland to be exact!
Bengal Barbecue
Bengal Barbecue has been serving up bacon-wrapped asparagus and Tiger Tails for just over 30 years (!!!) in Disneyland. And, thank GOODNESS for that!
It’s the home to some delicious eats like Poke Bowls, the Jungle Julep, and that incredible Kalua Pork Sandwich. But, most importantly, Bengal Barbecue grills up some of the BEST kabobs and skewers you can get on Disney property!

You may not be flying to Disney World this year due to the current health situation. So, if you’re hopping in the car to head to Disney World we have a few fun things to help keep the kiddos entertained!
Disney’s Minnie Vans Service
Although sitting in a car for a few hours (or more!) might seem boring, you don’t need Fairy Godmother’s wand to make your road trip magical!
Now that EPCOT is open, that means we’ve been spending all our time exploring a newly re-opened park (and waving hello to Pooh and his sweet butterfly net)!
Morocco Pavilion
Disney has put multiple health and safety regulations in place to keep guests and Cast Members safe during this time. While we’ve experienced temperature checks, hand sanitizer stations, and more around the parks, everyone is also required to wear face masks whenever they’re on property.
Although we’ve been grabbing as many Dole Whips and Mickey Pretzels (with plastic cheese, of course) as possible since we’ve been back to Disney World, there have been quite a few menu changes in the parks during the re-openings.
Magic Kingdom
While multiple menu items are available for guests to snack on again, we were SO sad to see treats like the Kakamora Float, I Lava You Float, and Peter Pan Float disappear from Disney World for the time being. And we’ve missed them tremendously!
Since we’ve been back in a newly re-opened EPCOT, we’ve spotted Anna and Elsa out in the Character Cavalcades, gone to the Relaxation Station at Akershus, and hopped back on Frozen Ever After back-to-back.
Norway Troll
Speaking of, while it’s well worth making a visit to the Norway Pavilion to visit Arendelle with Anna and Elsa, there’s a new pair of Mickey ears that will have you running that way! [Read more…]
Oh, hi. 👋 Did you know there’s HOCUS POCUS COOKIE DOUGH???!??!?

Yeah, we’ve seen Hocus Pocus EVERYTHING the last few Halloween seasons, and we’re even seeing these witchy sisters pop up already this year (check out this super cute mug!). But we’re so excited to share that NOW, my friends, it’s time to REALLY take your Hocus Pocus celebration to the KITCHEN! (FYI, we heard about these cookies from an awesome reader, but thanks to @candyhunting on insta we know that the original spotter of these goodies was @tamisclock!)
Downtown Disney has re-opened to guests so they can visit their favorite stores and restaurants in the district!
Downtown Disney!
Although we’ve been happy to dine at spots like Tortilla Jo’s and shop at the World of Disney for new face masks, due to Disneyland’s delayed reopening we haven’t yet been able to visit their parks and resorts. And while reservations had originally been available for select Disneyland hotels in August, it now looks like we might have to wait a little while longer before we will be able to visit!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
