My favorite EPCOT festival is almost back, and I can’t stop oogling over all the details. The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is where I have to literally set a budget for myself because between the incredible merchandise, artwork, and food, I could easily spend a million dollars (and no, this is not an exaggeration).

Disney just dropped the menus (THE MENUS, PEOPLE!), and apparently, I need to raise my budget this year because this food looks incredible.

The Festival of the Arts runs from January 16th to February 23rd and will turn EPCOT into a colorful world of art. The food is some of the most beautiful of any EPCOT festival, and just wait till you see the menus.
