    Halloweentown Themed Dinner

    August 27, 2023 /

    This week, we’re kicking off the spooky season with a special Halloweentown themed dinner! Halloween starts early in our house – too early some may say.  But the way I see it, if Halloween parties are taking place at Disney, then we should be celebrating too! So, to kick-start the Halloween season, we enjoyed a themed dinner to the Disney Channel Original Movie – Halloweentown! To create our Halloweentown dinner menu, I took inspiration from the characters and fun food references in the film. So, grab your broomstick and a witch’s brew as we share our Halloweentown dinner and movie night! Town Square Jack-O’-Lantern Cheeseball The giant jack-o’-lantern in the…

    This week, we enjoyed a shark-themed dinner while watching the cinematic classic – Jaws! My family is all about sharks this time of year.  With Discovery Channel’s Shark Week programming and SharkFest on Disney+ we just can’t seem to get enough of these incredible animals.  Through these programs, we understand that sharks aren’t the man-eating villains that Hollywood would have us believe.  But we still can’t help but love a good shark thriller.  And no shark film is as infamous as “the one that started it all” – Jaws! Now I’ll admit, this themed dinner is a change of pace for us.  Leading up to this point, we’ve enjoyed dinners…

    This week, we enjoyed an Avatar themed dinner inspired by the food and drinks at Walt Disney World’s Pandora! Pandora World of Avatar is a themed land inspired by the film.  This exotic and strikingly beautiful area celebrates the culture of the Na’vi and their relationship with nature.  And to commemorate the release of Avatar: The Way of Water on Disney+, I decided to make some of our favorite dishes from Pandora for a special dinner! Pandora has two dining locations: Satu’li Canteen and Pongu Pongu. At Satu’li Canteen, guests step inside a former RDA mess hall, now adorned with Na’vi art and artifacts.  On the menu you will find…

    Sanaa Dining Review

    May 11, 2023 /

    This week, we’re sharing our dining review of Walt Disney World’s hidden gem – Sanaa! Sanaa is located in Kidani Village at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge.  As the name implies, this stunning resort is themed like an African lodge and houses gorgeous African artifacts and artwork.  And outside on the savannah, guests can view free-roaming animals such as zebras, giraffes, and gazelles.  There is so much beauty throughout this resort, and dining at Sanaa is a great excuse to explore it! Sanaa offers two distinct dining experiences.  In the mornings, guests can partake in the Kuamsha Breakfast, a casual quick-service option that requires no reservations.  For lunch and dinner, however,…

    Earth Day is a time to celebrate the beauty of our planet and learn how to protect it.  And this week, I’m sharing ways you can celebrate Earth Day as a family! Earth Day is an important time to teach kids about how our planet takes care of us, and why it’s so important to take care of our planet.  It’s never too early to start teaching children these important lessons.  And one of the best ways to educate kiddos is by modeling positive behaviors yourself!  By getting kids involved in caring for the planet, you are encouraging them to continue these practices as they get older.  So, here are…

    We’re covering all the Star Wars-themed sips and eats available in Galaxy’s Edge with this foodie guide! Located at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Galaxy’s Edge is every Star Wars fan’s playground.  This themed area is a bustling outpost located on the remote planet, Batuu.  Visitors can browse the lively markets, build their own droids and lightsabers, evade the First Order, and even pilot the Millennium Falcon!  But one of my favorite aspects of Galaxy’s Edge is the food! Galaxy’s Edge is known for its rich theming and storytelling, and that attention to detail is also present in its galactic fare!  There are tons of unique offerings here that can’t be missed. …
