food IS a theme park
Okay, so we know a LOT of you out there appreciate Disney World’s Resort Refillable Mugs.
Resort Refillable Mug
Not only do they let you fill up on your favorite non-alcoholic beverages WHENEVER YOU WANT at your Disney World hotel (or at any OTHER Disney World hotel), but they also make great take-home souvenirs. Like who doesn’t need more Disney mugs, right? Well, there’s a pretty cool hack we know about refillable mugs that we wanted to share with you.
Things have changed A LOT in Disney World.

We’re visiting the parks without park pass reservations (well, those of us with date-based tickets, anyway). We’re park hopping when we feel like it. AND we’re using the Disney Dining Plan, which has finally returned after FOUR LONG YEARS OF DESOLATE OUT OF POCKET PAYMENTS.
But we used the brand NEW Disney Dining Plan in the parks on debut day, and we learned a LOT. So we’re going to fill you in on some of those weird brand new Disney Dining Plan rules that are a little bit different from what you may be expecting…as well as some of the old rules that you might not remember!
Working at Disney World is an unforgettable experience filled with MANY highs. However, like with any job, you can experience some lows and regrets.
Cinderella Castle
Being a Cast Member at Disney World can truly open you up to a world of Disney most people never get to see. From knowing all the ride secrets to filling our brains with an endless amount of Disney Parks know-how, Cast Members have a wealth of Disney knowledge that goes unmatched. With that said, like everyone else, Disney World Cast Members are still susceptible to having regrets once leaving the most Magical Place on Earth.
To stay on property at Disney World or not. That is the question.

When planning a trip to Disney World, whether you stay on property or not often is a debate between you and your budget. We won’t lie. Disney World hotels come at a premium, so if you’re looking for an ultra-affordable option, preferably for a single person, you have another option available to you, and stays there are under $30!
THIS IS NOT A DRILL — new desserts have made their way to Disney World!
Amorette’s
Amorette’s Patisserie in Disney Springs is a hotspot for classic and contemporary pastries, along with champagne, specialty hot chocolates, Disney character-themed petit cakes, and even wine slushies! Their long list of offerings is about to get larger, as they recently announced the addition of several new desserts to celebrate the new year!
Disney World at night (and after regular park hours) can be a GAMECHANGER!
After Hours at EPCOT
With the cost of Genie+ rising, massive crowds during certain times of the year, and staving off the heat on top of all of that during the summer months it’s easy to see why so many people would opt to do an after-hours event at Disney World instead. Lucky for you we’re naming off every single one! [Read more…]
We’re really sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
We’ve got a not-so-great update about Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney World, and it has to do with the return of the Disney Dining Plan.

2024 is shaping up to be a great year if news like this keeps on comin’!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
We’ve already seen the Disney Dining Plan return, Park Pass Reservations disappear for some ticket types, and Park Hopping ditch its 2PM restriction, so how could this week possibly get any better? Hey, guess what? IT JUST DID. One of our all-time favorite snacks at Disney’s Animal Kingdom just made its glorious return after going MISSING for several months! [Read more…]
Raise a glass! The Disney Dining Plan is finally BACK. We’ve been counting down the days for MONTHS, researching the pros and cons, and answering your biggest questions. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. First, you need some context.
Full Spread at Yak and Yeti
The Disney Dining Plan is an optional vacation add-on that essentially allows Disney World hotel guests to pre-pay for their meals in exchange for Dining Plan credits. Then, once you’re in Disney World, all you have to do is enjoy your meal and apply those Dining Plan credits to your meal (as long as the restaurant accepts the Disney Dining Plan, that is). This option was unavailable for several years, but as of January 9th, 2024, it’s finally BACK, with a few changes.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
