food IS a theme park
Shopping alert! Disney Loungefly bags? We love ’em. Minnie ears? Adorable! Spirit Jerseys? They’re a BIG hit! Well, what if we told you Disney had a NEW collection online featuring ALL of our favorite Disney essentials?
Loungefly bags
It’s official! Disney just stopped the best new collection of the season. Wanna see? Let’s go shopping!
Have you ever wondered what it might be like to LIVE in Disney World or Disneyland?

Imagine waking up every morning to Disney magic all around you — how amazing would that be? Well, Disney is kinda bringing that concept to life with its residential communities. In 2022, the company announced Storyliving by Disney, which seeks to create communities with HOUSES YOU CAN BUY that will let you live within the Disney magic 24/7. Right now, two communities are in the works, including Asteria in North Carolina and Cotino in California. Well, we’ve been following Cotino’s construction progress, and we’ve got a new update!
We are a little obsessed with Disney Food…like, well, that shouldn’t come as a HUGE surprise because we are the Disney FOOD Blog.
Disney Springs
Sure, we cover other big Disney news, but we always come back around to the food we love, including Mickey waffles, Corn Dog Nuggets (or Mini Corn Dogs, as they’re now called), Cheeseburger Pods, Dole Whip, and more. We also get EXCITED when new snacks drop in Disney World. So you can imagine how fast we ran to Disney Springs to try two new menu items at Chicken Guy! (which is one of our fave quick service locations in Disney Springs!).
Magic Kingdom is about to be VERY busy — and we don’t mean with people.
Frontierland
A lot of construction will be coming to the park soon, as Rivers of America and Tom Sawyer Island get converted into a Cars-themed area as part of a Frontierland expansion. Disney has plans to also build a Villains-themed land in the park, too. PLUS Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will be closed for a whole YEAR probably due to all the construction, but also for updates of its own. Well, ahead of that closure, we just spotted some NEW construction in Magic Kingdom. Folks, it’s really happening!
Don’t fall for it, people! That wall of Minnie ears in Disney World is awfully tempting, but there are lots of ways to get a cute Disney accessory without paying full price.
Minnie Ears
In fact, after years of experience, we’ve rounded up the four most common items we regret impulse-buying in Disney World. Good news — there’s a BETTER WAY!
BIG changes are happening in Disneyland. Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is opening soon and is now going through its early previews.
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Construction on the new Haunted Mansion queue and gift shop is still underway. Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree recently opened in what will soon be Bayou Country (goodbye, Critter Country). A new Coco ride and Avatar land is on the way. However, we just took a walk through Disneyland Resort and we noticed some recent changes that we’re excited about!
At this point, a Stanley tumbler is more than just a water bottle. It’s a utility item. It’s an accessory. It’s a place to stick your stickers. It’s a motivator to keep you hydrated. Simply put, it’s an essential!

The Stanley brand knows how to keep things fresh, too, and its latest collaboration with e.l.f. is PERFECT for people who are never far from their go-to lip product. Let’s go to Target and see what’s new!

Extra, extra, read all about it! Seriously, we’re sure Disney World hasn’t had a wink of sleep because it has dropped so many new updates this week. If you’ve missed out, this is your chance to catch up!
Cinderella Castle
I’m back again with another round of WHAT’S NEW UPDATES AT DISNEY WORLD, a rundown on all the epic news and updates that happened at Disney World this past week. This week, we got the 4-1-1 on over 120 restaurants INCREASING in prices, 38 NEW snacks announced, and a highly anticipated restaurant soft OPENING!
I’m going to tell you a little story about how I was basically raised to be a sucker for Disney pins, and it is through no fault of my own that I am now a pin collector.
We love pins!
My first trip to Disney World happened when I was two years old. Aww, a junior Disney fan in the making! Naturally, I loved the princesses, the characters, and the souvenirs. In fact, I took Disney pins seriously from a young age. I traded for a Snow White pin that I still have to this day. I bought some Disney princess pins in the gift shops. I was hooked. It’s not my fault that Disney got to me at a young age! Well…years later, I’m still buying and trading pins. My collection has grown over time, and (unfortunately) the prices have grown, too.
With so many restaurants for you to choose from at Disney World, it’s fair to think that not all of them are created equal.
Magic Kingdom
So it’s understandable why we can get overwhelmed with all of the choices available to us. Now, we’re here to help you out, which is why we are constantly giving you our two-cents on these Disney World spots (we hate to see you have bad experiences on your trip), but this time we thought we’d have you to tell us which is the worst Disney restaurant at Magic Kingdom! Let’s go.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
