food IS a theme park
If you’re like us, you’ve got a favorite ride at Disney World. Wait! Don’t tell us. It’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, right?!
Cosmic Rewind
And since it’s your favorite ride, surely you’ve noticed the strange phenomenon that happens every single time without fail, right? It always happens like clockwork, so let’s talk about it and try to figure out why it happens! Let’s find out!
We’ve talked frequently in the past about what happens when Disney characters enter the public domain.
Winnie the Pooh
Mickey Mouse in his Steamboat Willie form entered the public domain at the beginning of 2024, but before even that, Winnie the Pooh became public domain back in 2022. Now that Disney no longer exclusively owns the rights to Winnie the Pooh, people have been doing some WILD things with his image…including making horror films!
Disneyland Park is getting a big change!

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is replacing Splash Mountain in both Disney World and Disneyland, and we’ve been watching the construction on both coasts for a while now. But along with the updates to the ride, it looks like Disneyland is going to get some new shops!
One of the best simple pleasures in life is visiting Costco and taking your pick of the grab-and-go food options.

They say that grocery shopping is best done with a full belly. Costco helps ya out with that issue by having a pretty impressive food court so that you can fill up your stomach before shopping. Although, we will admit that even when we grub before we shop, we still end up with unnecessary but delicious snacks. Anyway, have you ever wondered what Costco executives opt for out of the seemingly endless food court options? Well, we can’t say we have either, but now we know — and now we’re interested.
It may only be March, but it’s never too early to start planning your fall trip to Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
You can start making plans for your vacation pretty early, booking hotel reservations and deciding which rides and attractions you want to prioritize. We’re expecting Disney to make some announcements about its Halloween festivities pretty soon, but we’ve already found a SECRET HINT about a popular parade that will be returning this spooky season, and we think you’ll be super excited to hear it!

We’re constantly on the hunt for new shows and movies to watch!

Thanks to the era of streaming, we have SO many choices at our fingertips. That’s why we like to stay updated with the new shows and movies coming to our favorite streaming services, especially Disney+. And if you were hoping to stream Disney’s newest movie, we’ve got some important news!
If you’ve been looking for the perfect bag to take to Disney World, we’ve FOUND IT!
New ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Bags
Disney just released three new bags online, and we honestly can’t decide which one is our favorite. We’re calling it now — these new purses are gonna be POPULAR.
Have you realized that America’s Funniest Videos (AFV)Â is on Disney+ for all your laughing pleasure?

AFVÂ has been around for a LONG time. It was the kickstart in the 90s that made documenting everything in our lives normal, and the trend has continued into today. After 34 successful seasons, the show is still going strong, and we don’t see it slowing down any time soon, especially when we notice signs in EPCOT asking for our vote!
So, we’ve been seeing a trend in Disney World recently.
Splash Mountain
Over the past few years, we’ve seen some things close FOREVER at Disney World. We witnessed the last EVER day of Splash Mountain. We watched Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser open and then close only about a year later. We were there when Country Bear Jamboree performed its last show (okay, not TECHNICALLY its last show, but the show IS changing, so it feels like we were saying goodbye). Although many fans have been upset with these closures, we’ve noticed something interesting.
Disney World uses paint in some really unique ways!
Using paint to conceal the Cosmic Rewind building
From varying the color of sidewalks and curbs so that people don’t trip walking down Main Street, U.S.A. to painting utility boxes and light posts in “go away green” so that they’re less noticeable, Disney has been known to use colors to subtly affect your in-park experience. But we don’t have to be that subtle in our homes! And if you want to paint your home just like Disney World, we’ve got great news.
