Please accept this rose…
Originally posted Spring 2020 “Tale as old as time…tune as old as song…” Sorry, couldn’t help myself. If you grew up in the 90’s and are even the tiniest Disney fan- you know that this rose is from “Beauty and the Beast”! In Disney World you can visit the Beast’s castle by eating at Be Our Guest restaurant in the Magic Kingdom. That’s just what we did for our sixth evening of our Disney staycation.

Taquitos in Epcot
Originally posted Spring 2020 *Post may contain affiliate links TLDR: Easy taquito recipe inspired by the Mexico pavilion at Disney’s Epcot. I tweeted out a hint as to our Disney destination today, where do you think we’re going? Did you guess Epcot? Good job! Bienvenidos a Mexico! Epcot is occasionally my favorite park. Even though it sometimes gets a bad wrap as the educational or boring park, it has a lot of the best food in all of Walt Disney World. Had I been feeling more adventurous I would’ve tackled fish n’ chips or the fanciest of French food for our Epcot dinner…but we’re in month two of quarantine and…

Pandora Pinterest Fails
TLDR: Recipes from Pandora at Disney’s Animal Kingdom So far our Disney week at home has been full of all hits, no misses….until I “took” us to Pandora in the Animal Kingdom. For starters this is what the tiny one did to my kitchen: Recovering from that, I set out to make the food of Pandora from Satu’li Canteen and Pongu Pongu. Steamed Cheeseburger Pods The beautiful picture above (compliments of http://Disneydishesblog.com) is what a cheeseburger pod from Satu’li Canteen looks like. It is a bun stuffed with ground beef, cheese, ketchup, mustard and pickles. I decided to make my own baked version of this park favorite. Cheeseburger Stuffed Crescent…

Make Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats at Home!
Disney World Staycation This post finds you smack in the middle of our Disney staycation, compliments of Covid. Each day we “visit” a different part of the Walt Disney World Resort. Our homeschooling lessons are also inspired by Disney! For the sake of readability and organization I am going to do a separate post on all of our Disney homeschooling activities. You can find them here and here. In the meantime I will continue with our daily food updates this week! Today we once again concentrated on the Magic Kingdom (see yesterday’s menu here) and made homemade Mickey Mouse Rice Krispie Treats. Later we will enjoy dinner “at” The Plaza.…

Our Disney Staycation-Day 3 Sleepy Hollow & Casey’s Corner
I hope you have been enjoying our “travels” to Walt Disney World as we stay in the safety of our quarantined home. The kids are fully on board with the fun and even made themselves Magic Bands today!

We will be eating our meals from Sleepy Hollow and Casey’s Corner in the Magic Kingdom. First up-lunch. Sleepy Hollow Sleepy Hollow is a quick service/snack restaurant in Liberty Square of the Magic Kingdom. We fell in love with the place on our first…

Making Magic-One Meal at a Time
Originally posted Spring 2020 Since we can’t go to Disney in person I am bringing the Disney magic home to us! After our super successful brunch we “traveled” to Disney Springs for dinner to eat at Chicken Guy. See my awesome & realistic decor below: L has been obsessed with Guy Fieri for a very long time. He was so looking forward to going to his restaurant during our trip. It wasn’t even in our original plan but L was so insistent we made room in the schedule. We’ve even watched YouTube videos reviewing the menu items! Luckily for me, the menu is pretty simple and easy to replicate. We…

I’ll take my Corona with lime…
Originally posted Spring 2020 Embracing the situation and figuring out how to enjoy Disney World from home. The Coronavirus, Covid-19, will define the year 2020. It has brought with it death, destruction and disappointment. We are so very lucky at my house to be safe & able to work from home. However the multitude of things we are missing out on is getting hard to explain to the kids. First dance competitions, basketball playoffs, 5th grade graduation, time with family, birthday parties, weddings… and perhaps the worst for the kids, we are missing out on a Disney trip. This trip has been in the making for a year and a…

The Disney Flag…
Originally posted Spring 2020-Note: All advice is the opinion of this blogger and is pre-COVID-19. As more is known about WDW (Walt Disney World) operating procedures I will try to update these posts. UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2023 Overwhelmed at where to begin planning a Walt Disney World vacation? Never fear! The Chaos Manager is here! Read on for my favorite planning resources for Disney. I realized that I’ve been writing (or thinking about writing) this blog for a year and a half now and have yet to let my Disney flag fly. Well, I’m flying it high now, we are definitely one of those Disney families! ***Some links are affiliate links…
