Epcot Food and Wine 2015

This year was the Food and Wine Festival's 20th anniversary!

So despite being very pregnant and sick I had to try and go... It's one of my all time favorite events after all. Disney and food? That's my happy place!

So the Husband and I drove over and while it was rough and I only made it for just under two hours I was super happy and fortunate to have been ble to go at all.

We came in through the back entrance so we started off in my favorite country for food, Canada!

Their beef filet with mushrooms is Aaahmazing if you eat meat! And the beer cheddar soup? THE best! Yummy!

It was pretty hot out but the World Showcase was still looking lovely!

I also snuck in a bumpie pic with the official festival sign for my son's future prosperity.

And the topiaries I got to see were on point as always!

It wasn't a good time of day for pictures at all (beautiful sunshine can make for some bad shadows) but here's the sweet Husband.

And because I'm so pregnant and it was so hot... We were grateful to have the air conditioned Chase lounge to sit in.

We actually ended up in here most of the time because it was just too HOT for me out there!

It's pretty neat though because it's actually up on the top floor of the American Pavilion in Epcot and the rest of the year it's off limits. So you feel pretty spiffy being able to go up there.

They also offered free charging stations, a special wine tasting you could buy, and unlimited free sodas and water.

Plus, you can look out the window and across the lagoon at Spaceship Earth. It's a good place to be.

Which is good indeed because after that, we went home. It was a very short trip but I am very lucky to be a pass holder so I can do stuff like this.

Despite not being there long we had a nice time!

And cooled off a little at the Boardwalk hotel before we left. It's our favorite because we got married there!

Now if only I can make it back again for a longer trip and try more food!

Kisses,

I'm Really a Mermaid...

So... I love Disney. I love mermaids and water. And I love the movie The Little Mermaid...

Which means I I just had to order these Little Mermaid inspired Mickey ears by Wicked Ears to wear in the parks!

A perk of being a pass holder is getting to pop in whenever able and to wear fun, fabulous, silly things you wouldn't usually wear as an adult.

And with all this sparkle?

These ears are truly fabulous!

Definitely go to the lovely Etsy store Wicked Ears and check them out if your a Mickey ear fan like me! Her work really ups the ante!

I can't wait to throw on some mermaid inspired Lilly Pulitzer and these ears for a park day when my preggo butt feels up to it!

Kisses,

K

Welcome October

Happy Fall Ya'll!

I'm hoping to get back to blogging again and I have sooo much to share! So much has happened! (New/ First home purchased, baby due in January!) But for now, baby steps...

October started off quietly and lovely.

 

Abby slept in while I unpacked more in our new home.

Then the Husband and I headed over to Disney's Fort Wilderness Lodge for dinner.

 

 

It's one of my favorite places to visit and eat. It just feels magical and calm there.

For dinner I had the Cedar Plank salmon... Sooo good!

All in all it was a lovely laid back day.

Here's to hopefully being able to blog again and to a happy autumn for all!

Kisses,

Hope everyone has a day full of treats and no tricks!

It's Not So Very Scary... Part 3

And the last post begins...

Pre-parade Phineas and Ferb dance party.

More castle shots.

My Mom as a Flapper.

My sister all smiles while waiting in the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train que.

Which is actually pretty cool...

It has gem sorting games.

And musical water games.

Then you enter the mine vault.

Spin some barrels...

And watch the gems!

After that we went for a second Haunted Mansion ride.

Where we were sure to bring some friendly hitch hiking ghosts home as the time had come to leave.

This "See Ya Real Soon" carved pumpkin sign is usually lit up but... alas not tonight...

 

The lighting as we left provided for a nifty photo op.

 

Then all was well that ends well.

Until next year Not So Very Scary...

Maybe soon some Very Merry?

Kisses,

It's Not So Very Scary... Part 2

Part 2... Mwahahahaha...

We continue with a devilishly delightful display of the season on Cindereella's Castle.

We wren table to view the show in front of the castle due to the crowds but at least we got a side view of the festivities and fireworks.

 

The show begins with stunning projections that dance and change covering the castle.

Many of them show classic Disney characters, villains, and references including the evil electric eels of Ursula from The Little Mermaid as seen above.

The whole thing is pretty magical...

And then the fireworks start...

And things get more awesome and more spooky as ghosts begging to cavort across the castle.

Then more fireworks...

Pumpkins.

Stripes and webs.

All the smoke from the fireworks really helped make things a bit more ghostly.

Evil eyes in the night.

 

And lastly the finale.

One more part to come...

Spooky kisses,

K
