food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Hollywood Studios!
Hollywood Studios
And, we’re here to share SO MUCH merchandise that’s made its way into the park, so let’s dive right on in!
Although we’ve been picking up the Winnie the Pooh Loungefly Backpack in Disney World and getting ready to snag the Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Peter Pan’s Flight series on shopDisney, it’s that time of the year to start stocking up on school stuff!
Winnie the Pooh Loungefly Backpack
Since summer is coming to a close and the start of school is just around the corner, you can’t go wrong picking up a few Disney items to show off during the semester.
It’s been pretty fun seeing all our pals out and about in Disney World, looking as adorable as ever!
Winnie the Pooh Frolicking Around!
Although we’ve been watching the new Character Cavalcades and hopping on our favorite attractions once again, we have especially loved grabbing new Disney merchandise to add to our growing collection back home.
It seems like most of us know a little girl or two who dreams of becoming a Disney princess someday — after all, how could you NOT want to join this Princess party-on-wheels we’ve seen rolling through EPCOT recently!
Princess Promenade in EPCOT
But what the Disney princesses WON’T tell you is how itchy their dresses can BE! As much as our little ones would love to wear their princess dresses to the parks all day, they can sometimes be hot and pretty uncomfortable to wear for more than a few minutes on a hot summer day!
We’ve made a special trip back to Mouse Gear at EPCOT today to see if any new Minnie Ears had arrived! If you recall, we hit a rainbow-colored jackpot last week when we discovered these gorgeous new Sparkly Minnie Ears with ACTUAL pieces of Mickey-shaped confetti and glitter inside of them!

And it looks like today ANOTHER sparkly new set of Minnie Ears have arrived! We knew our sequin senses were tinglin’ for a reason!
The NBA is finishing up the season on Walt Disney World property.
Grand Floridian NBA Blue Wall
We’ve been keeping watch on the big blue wall at Disney’s Grand Floridian. The NBA set up camp behind the blue barrier to isolate players from the public. While isolated, the players got some pretty cool amenities like loads of video games and private pedicurists. We visited the wall a few times to try and catch a glimpse of the other side. Something definitely caught our eye today! [Read more…]
We’ve miss walking down Main Street and popping into our favorite Disneyland restaurants.
Disneyland’s Carnation Cafe, a Main Street USA Landmark Since 1955
But, even though we’re not in the parks, we can still have one of the classic dishes from the iconic Carnation Café. Whether you’re a fan of dill pickles or bread and butter pickles, you can fry and serve up Disneyland’s Fried Pickle recipe along with a house-made zesty dipping sauce.
If you’d have told us we’d be buying sweatshirts in Florida IN JULY a few years back, we would’ve told you you were NUTS!
Neon Splatter Spirit Jersey
But after seeing the newly redesigned Hocus Pocus Spirit Jersey and Neon Splatter Spirit Jersey last week, here we are, once again, falling in love with yet another Spirit Jersey! We just can’t seem to resist ’em!
Just a few days ago we were quacking up over the new Daisy Duck Loungefly collection! Our only complaint is it’s almost TOO fabulous — if such a thing could exist!

But these new Loungeflys we just spotted on shopDisney this morning have us seeing STARS! Check out the latest arrivals that have just flown in below!
Yes, you absolutely read that title right! We’re talking about bathrooms. Restrooms. Loos. Potties.
Restrooms in Animal Kingdom
Although you might encounter some lines every so often (it is Disney, after all), there are still spots around the parks that are both quiet AND wonderfully Imagineered! We feel it’s our duty to get down and dirty and share the secrets of the BEST bathrooms in Disney World.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
