food IS a theme park
Hello, everyone, from Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Hollywood Studios
It’s a big, bright, beautiful day, so we’re wandering around the park to see what’s new since the last time we visited.
We would never have thought so many Disney attractions would get their own movies, but so far we’ve seen the success of a full series of movies based on Pirates of the Caribbean, as well as a lesser successful film based on the Haunted Mansion (although that film is reportedly getting a reboot!).
Space Mountain
There’s also a Jungle Cruise movie on the way (in case you’ve forgotten). But now another Disney attraction reportedly has a film in the works: Space Mountain!
After several weeks (months?) of seeing bigger crowds in Disney World and more and more folks not adhering to strict mask wearing rules (it goes over your nose y’all), Disney World is laying down the LAW in their newest signage!
Here’s the background — according to Disney’s current rules, all guests ages 2 and over must wear a face mask at all times in the theme parks, except when at a Relaxation Station or when actively eating or drinking and stationary.
Tie-dye Mickey Face Mask
Whether you’ve got a DFB mask or a Disney mask or one of the many other face mask designs out there, it’s important that you follow Disney’s specific mask requirements during your stay. And today they’re getting SERIOUS.
We’ve spotted lots of fun and different shirt designs over at Uniqlo in Disney Springs.

But now YOU can be the designer of your own truly unique and customized shirt at this spot!
We’ve got lots of new stuff coming your way from our stroll through Disney Springs today. Soon, you’ll be seeing some new goodies at Uniqlo, and we just brought you a sundae custom-made for Chocolate Lovers at Ghirardelli.
Ghirardelli Midnight Reverie Sundae
But among all the new fun finds, we couldn’t help but notice something missing. Actually, make that a few things, as a couple of major components are missing from a counter service spot that has long been serving guests in the Disney Springs Marketplace… [Read more…]
It’s no secret that we LOOOOOVVVEEE chocolate here at DFB. And we’ve had a lot of wonderful chocolately snacks at Disney World, including chocolate waffles, chocolate cupcakes, chocolate caramel brownies, and more!
Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop
So you can imagine we’ve spent a good amount of time at Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop at Disney Springs, although we have to admit we hadn’t been there in a while!
Need a Disney engagement ring delivered to your door in two days? BOOM. Amazon’s got you!

Ever wondered about the PRICIEST Disney stuff you can score on Amazon Prime? We were doing some much-needed retail therapy and decided to daydream for a bit. Sure, some of the results were fairly unexpected, but that’s not really the crazy part. It’s the fact that you can order all of this super bougie (and super weird) stuff and have it shipped to you in a couple days. Luxury buyers and window shoppers, come see what we found!
From Halloween balloons to Halloween merch, we’ve been enjoying ALL the spooky season offerings at Disney World!
Halloween Balloons
We’ve also been on a quest to find delicious Halloween snacks around Disney World, and today we spotted one particularly spooky treat we just HAD to try!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party might be canceled this year, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be plenty of fun things to do on Halloween, even if you’re stuck at home!
Jack’s Nightmare Cavalcade
If you’re in the parks on Halloween, you’ll be treated to Halloween cavalcades, which include characters from The Nightmare Before Christmas, but on Halloween night, you can attend a virtual Nightmare Before Christmas concert in your costume (or pajamas — your choice!).
Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort will reopen to guests on October 14th.
Disney’s Coronado Springs
You may recall that just last summer, the addition of the Gran Destino Tower brought new dining options (along with over 500 rooms) to this Resort. And today brings news about which dining locations — both in the Tower and throughout the rest of the Resort — will reopen to guests at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort next week. [Read more…]
