food IS a theme park
We love Disney World. We love the rides. We love the entertainment. We love the FOOD. We love the sights. The SMELLS. It’s a great time!
Main Street, U.S.A.
But what if we told you that you could smell like Disney World? Not the weird smells, of course. We’re talking about the fresh-baked scent of the Main Street Bakery or the sweet, floral scent of Pandora in Flight of Passage. Well, after a little research, we found some perfumes that will remind you of all the BEST parts of Disney World!
Disneyland’s reimagined Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree is finally open so you know we had to head over and grab a bite or several!
Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree
Disneyland is turning its Critter Country land into Bayou Country, which will conclude with the opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in November. A major piece of Bayou Country will be the Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree — formerly known as the Hungry Bear Restaurant. After several months of refurbishment and retheming, we headed over to the NOW-OPEN Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree to try its new menu and check out the changes!
There are always new things coming to Disney World and old things being refurbished! Disney World is constantly changing, and that is part of what makes it magical, but it isn’t so magical when you don’t realize something is scheduled to be closed.
Test Track is undergoing refurbishment
If you are heading to Disney World this week, there are a few closures you will want to know about. We don’t want to be caught by surprise when something you wanted to visit isn’t open.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays
Between Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights, and of course, the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, there’s just so much to see and do! But, if you’re planning to visit the Festival of the Holidays this year, we’ve got some bad news to share with you.
The 2024 holiday season hasn’t even begun, but yes it’s true — it’s already time to start planning your 2025 Christmas trip to Disney World!
Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade 2023
The holiday season is one of the busiest times in Disney World. With lots of families heading to the resort to celebrate the season, things tend to book up super quickly. And that means you need to be on the ball when it comes to planning your trip, even if it is still over a year out!
There are some extras in Disney World that many visitors always think are worth paying extra for.
Refillable mugs
That includes Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass, as well as upgrades to preferred rooms at some Disney World hotels, the Disney Dining Plan, and more. One of the most popular paid perk, though, could be the hotel refillable mugs that let you pay one price and get unlimited refills on drinks like soda, coffee, and tea throughout your hotel stay. Well, that perk just got a bit more expensive.
Okay, so we already know a lot of changes are coming to Magic Kingdom.
Magic Kingdom
In 2025, Magic Kingdom will finally get a nighttime parade again (and we can’t wait). But there’s also a huge expansion coming to the park, which will include a new Cars area with TWO rides in Frontierland PLUS an all-new Villains-themed land. However, one BIG change is coming even sooner than that — NEXT WEEK. And well, we have to say, We ARE READY.
Could an innovative Disney World hotel take the resort to a whole new level?

Universal Orlando’s Epic Universe has been making waves since it announced an opening date of May 22nd, 2025. The new theme park will feature several themed lands and a brand-new hotel — Universal Helios Grand Hotel — INSIDE the park. It’s been a popular practice to compare the future of Universal Orlando to Disney World’s future, which begs the question: will Disney World try its hand at putting a hotel inside one of its parks?
Hey, friends! We’re back with another DFB Video covering all the latest Disney news!
The Cake Bake Shop
We’ve got thoughts from the first day of Lightning Lane Premier Pass in Disneyland; Epic Universe tickets are on sale NOW, and are the giant cake slices at The Cake Bake Shop worth the hefty price tag? We’ve got the tea (or should I say pink hot cocoa?)

You ever think back to those magical moments you had at Disney World? I know I do!
Happily Ever After
I’m talking about those times when you were zipping about on your favorite rides, eating the most delicious of foods, and, of course, watching the fireworks light up the skies above Cinderella Castle. Now, we all typically like to bring back some kind of souvenir as a reminder, memento, of the incredible time we had a Disney World. Speaking of those souvenirs, I try not to have any regrets, however, there’s this one Magic Kingdom souvenir I had to leave behind and I still think about it to this day!
