Dumbo live action review

by Leave a Comment

It seems that whether we like it or not, Disney is going to continue making live action versions of basically every animated film they’ve ever created.  Even movies featuring animals have been no exception, with The Jungle Book coming out a few years ago and The Lion King up this summer.  Dumbo has not escaped […]

Harambe Market review

by

One of my favorite places to eat is Animal Kingdom. I love Tiffins for a great sit-down meal, but it is a signature restaurant so it’s a bit pricey – luckily there are plenty of other good options! If we want to enjoy some drinks I’ll do Nomad Lounge and share appetizers. For quick service […]

Coronado Springs review

by

For my trip in February that was over the Princess race weekends, I was leaning towards staying at a moderate resort. I knew that I wanted a little more space and comfort than the values (having a bigger, comfier bed and a hot tub were important when I was running so much!), but I didn’t […]

The Plaza Restaurant breakfast at Magic Kingdom

by

When we decided to do a breakfast on our Magic Kingdom day, there were a lot of places we could have gone – but since they started doing breakfast at the Plaza recently and it was something I hadn’t tried before, we decided to eat there! Three of us met for a late breakfast (around […]

Captain Marvel review

by

I’ve been pretty excited to see Captain Marvel because there were a lot of things about it that looked promising – a cool female superhero, a retro 90’s vibe, and of course an adorable cat!  I also expected it to be another fairly typical Marvel origin story, and it was that. But I really enjoyed […]

Be our Guest – new signature menu

by

Be our Guest has been one of the most popular restaurants in Disney World since it opened. If you want a dinner reservation at Be our Guest, you pretty much have to be flexible and ready to go 180 days ahead of time. Due to its success they began offering lunch and breakfast quick service […]

Terralina Crafted Italian review

by

On my most recent trip to Disney I decided to try another Italian place – one of the newest, Terralina Crafted Italian. I need good places to carb load before a Disney race, and since the Princess Half Marathon was the next morning it seemed like the best time to try it! Terralina is located […]

Book review: Lost in a Book

by

I’ve been very into any sort of twist on fairy tales lately, and as Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite Disney movies I was excited to get my hands on this! Lost in a Book by Jennifer Donnelly actually doesn’t tamper with the “original” Disney story at all – it takes place […]

Once upon a Dream book review

by

Once upon a Dream is another one of Liz Braswell’s darker fairy tale/Disney retellings, this time tackling Sleeping Beauty. I’ve previously read the Aladdin one (A Whole New World) and Beauty and the Beast (As Old as Time). I’m not as fond of the movie Sleeping Beauty as those two, but that just means I […]

Mary Poppins Returns review

by

    Okay, I might be a little late in the game, but I finally got around to seeing Mary Poppins Returns this past weekend! I don’t know about you, but it is so difficult for me to find time to go to the movies when the holidays are happening. We have 3 different families […]
