food IS a theme park
Guess what? Celebrities are sometimes just like us and they love Disney World, too!

And this is why you can often see celebrities hanging out in the parks, whether they’re there in an official capacity, or just having fun with family and friends, or celebrating a special occasion. But if you want to go celebrity spotting at Disney World, there are certain times you just might spot them!
Happy Holidays to all our DFB Friends!
Chocolate Peppermint Cookie Sandwich from The Mara
It’s hard to believe the holiday season is almost over, and 2022 is right around the corner. We’re looking forward to seeing some fun New Year’s treats, as well as welcoming a New Year at Disney World. But that doesn’t mean we’ve stopped monitoring menu changes at Disney World restaurants, so here’s what’s changed this week.
It’s that time of the year when the weather starts cooling off a bit and we even start thinking we might even need a sweater at night (yes, it DOES happen occasionally in Florida).
Soup is good food.
It’s also the holiday season, which means while we’re enjoying all the fun holiday decor at Disney World while we start buying ALL the new holiday merchandise, we also want to eat serious winter comfort food. And you know what we’re talking about, right? SOUP! We want soup!
What says holidays more than fun holiday cookies? And we have CERTAINLY had our share of them (hello, EPCOT Festival of the Holidays Cookie Stroll!).
We love cookies!
But perhaps the most iconic of holiday cookies is the gingerbread man, but we love it when Disney puts a new twist on that old favorite. Now, we’ve seen plenty of Mickey Gingerbread Cookies, but now, Disney has shared how they’ve made some Pooh-inspired gingerbread cookies!
Happy Holidays to our DFB Readers!

We’re back with another video, and we thought we’d spread some holiday cheer by telling you about some of our most hilarious stories from Disney World. So sit back, enjoy some Christmas cookies and maybe even a cup of hot cocoa or eggnog and get ready to laugh!
Last year, we really missed the Candlelight Processional, which is one of the best parts of the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays.
Candlelight Processional
The event, which has a celebrity narrator tells the story of Christmas while backed by a live orchestra and choir, is a must-see during the holidays at Disney World. The Candlelight Processional returned to Disney World this year after a year off, but among the celebrity narrators, a fan-favorite was missing: Neil Patrick Harris. And now the actor has commented on having to miss out on this year’s event and he commented on next year’s event.
Hello, DFB Friends, and Happy Holidays!
Holidays at the Magic Kingdom
Can you believe that it’s almost 2022? Soon, the holiday decorations at Disney World will be coming down and we’ll be gearing up for Valentine’s Day treats! But in the meantime, we’re still checking out everything at the parks, including Magic Kingdom, so let’s get on with some updates!
It seems like Disney World drops new 50th anniversary gear almost every day. Which means we’re going to have a LOT more merchandise available by the time the big celebration ends in 2023!
Disney World 50th anniversary Trinket Tray
Most recently we’ve seen miniature replicas of the 50th anniversary gold statues, ANOTHER 50th anniversary spirit jersey, and some rather expensive Luxe logo loungewear, but more merchandise is out there — and we just found some NEW 50th anniversary clothes on shopDisney that will keep you nice and warm this winter!

Disney’s history as a company goes back so many years that there are PLENTY of stories to uncover about Disney Parks, Disney Movies, and the man himself, Walt Disney.
These mysteries even have Goofy perplexed!
And there are a lot of questions we have about Disney-related things — like why is there a terrifying Jack in the Box at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort? Or why did that scary clown pool slide ever exist at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn? Or why did Disney ever think The Enchanted Tiki Room: Under New Management was a good idea? We’re digging into Disney’s biggest…unsolved mysteries (dun dun DUN!).
