Epcot Food and Wine Festival Must Have Foods

It is that time of year my friends, the freakin’ Epcot Food and Wine Festival! This has become an annual trip for my husband and I with our friends and we look forward to it all year long. Disney World is already the happiest place on earth, but add some bad ass foods, delicious wines, beers and spirits and it blows it out of the solar system. There have  been a few trips where I haven’t been able to make it all the way around the world in Epcot. It wasn’t pretty, and throwing up your guts in Morrocco’s fancy bathroom…

Frozen Gift Guide

Disney’s Frozen is the hottest thing ever and it’s no surprise the world of merchandising has capitalized on this immensely! My girls are constantly asking me for anything Frozen-related. The past couple months, the stores have been adding more and more Frozen merchandise to the shelves and they typically are flying right off! Not surprised at all. So just some friendly advice – if you see something Frozen-related and are contemplating getting it – just get it! More than likely the next time you go back for it, it won’t be there. To avoid any toy aisle fights, I found…

We spent the toddler’s 3rd birthday in the most magical place on earth – Disney World. The kids love it, we love and it is only 3 hours away so why the hell not, right? Well, as we were herding through the crowds of Magic Kingdom, I couldn’t help but people watch and observe all things grand. And by grand I mean crazy. I was shocked, awed, disturbed, surprised and entertained all at the same time. When we were driving home, I couldn’t help but think about everything I saw while in the most magical place on earth. – That…

Disney Dining: Where To Eat Part 2 – Character Lunch at Tusker House

Posted by in May

I have been meaning to write this post since our return from Disney last month! Now, dining at Disney can get extremely pricey and we were on a strict budget this trip. We found a great snack shop in Magic Kingdom but what about in some of the other great parks? I did some research and saw rave reviews for Donald’s Dining Safari Lunch at Tusker House in the Animal Kingdom, which also is a character lunch. So since we were heading to Animal Kingdom, this was a no brainer. With all character dining – and seated dining for that…

Disney Dining: Where To Eat, Part 1

Posted by in April

On our recent trip to Disney, we had all intention of doing it the economical way: packing breakfast, lunch, snacks and drinks and bringing them to park. Lets face it, it can get pricey with a big group when it comes to dining at Disney World. Well, we accomplished a portion of that goal! We brought breakfast foods to eat in the hotel before we left for the day, packed our backpacks and bags with snacks and lunch for the kids. We had all intention of going back to the hotel and eating sandwiches there while the kids napped but…

Mickey Mouse Trauma: Our Experience with Character Dining

Posted by in April

So this past weekend the family took a trip to the happiest place on earth – Disney World. We thought it would be the perfect place to celebrate our 2 year old’s birthday. I mean, what kid wouldn’t want to spend the weekend of their birthday there?! We are fortunate enough to only live 3 hours south of Orlando so making a last minute trip there isn’t too difficult. So we figured this would be a great way for her to enjoy time with her BFF cousin for her special birthday, considering she is beyond obsessed with Mickey Mouse. Everything…
