When I threw my Inside Out themed birthday party, I may have gotten just a little ambitious with the cake. I was searching Pinterest for ideas and came across one that I loved. However, it certainly looked complicated and above my limited baking experience. Nevertheless, it would be so cool if it worked! I decided […]
Lighthouse sandwich recipe from Columbia Harbour House
While I’m not vegetarian, I do find myself often favoring healthy foods. Sometimes this is a conscious choice, and sometimes it’s just my preferences – I happen to love things like fruits, veggies, and hummus! One of the more popular vegetarian meals I’ve heard about in Disney is the Lighthouse Sandwich at Columbia Harbour House. […]
African Stew recipe from the Mara
One of my absolute favorite places to eat at Disney is Animal Kingdom Lodge. They have one quick service location (the Mara), two regular table service restaurants (Sanaa and Boma), and a signature restaurant (Jiko). All have menus that are inspired by the flavors of Africa and India, and I can’t get enough of those […]
Winnie the Pooh’s honey milkshake
Is there a rumbly in your tumbly? Just like Pooh Bear, I’ve always been a fan of honey. I remember going to the ecology center near my house as a child where they kept bees, and buying those honey sticks they have. Sometimes they had different flavors, and you can’t beat a sweet treat like […]
Make a Winnie the Pooh cake
Every year my library hosts an “Edible Book Contest.” The idea is that the kids make anything edible (usually a cake or cupcakes) that is inspired by a book. As a judge and an adult of course I’m not allowed to enter the competition, but I still like to make something if I have the […]
Brazilian Cheese Bread recipe from Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival

Star Wars recipes: Unite for a Healthy Galaxy + giveaway!
I received compensation by Dole in exchange for my honest opinion in this blog post. We are less than three weeks away from the Princess half marathon right now, which means my training has been in full swing for awhile! One thing that I’ve started concentrating on in 2018 to improve my running is the […]
Le Cellier Cheddar Cheese soup recipe
I don’t know where you live, but I’m going to guess it’s cold there. Even in Florida they have weather in the 30’s right now – and some areas even got snow! Here in Pennsylvania it’s usually been about 10 degrees when I get up in the morning. When I got into work the other […]

If you’ve got a group of Disney loving friends, I have some ideas for how to throw a Disney Christmas party that everyone will love.
