One could say that as soon as you book your Walt Disney World vacation it becomes official but for me, there are certain things that must happen before it really feels official. Arriving in Orlando.   This one may seem obvious but the first feeling I get that my vacation has officially begun is when I see signs for Disney’s Magical Express.   I get so excited as I exit the plane and make my way to the motor coach that will deliver me to my happy place.   It’s the first sign of many that my vacation has officially begun.

Hey there, hi there, ho there, Disney Foodies! Who's ready to check out some new sweets and treats from the Magic Kingdom?

Happy Spring, Disney Fans!      Hope you're finding some rays of sunshine and the first peeks of buds and flowers out your windows. Spring is in full bloom here in Orlando, (just ask my allergies!), and my kids and I hit up one of our favorite springtime displays, The Grand Floridian Chocolate Egg Display ! Every year, the pastry chefs go nuts hand carving giant chocolate eggs into edible displays of Disney art. They are pretty amazing and the popularity of them grows annually. In fact, this year there are even eggs on display in other resorts too, like The Contemporary and The Yacht and Beach Club. Now, I haven't gotten the chance to check out any of the other displays yet, but I do have pictures to share of the eggs from The Grand, so let's check 'em out! ~~~~ Lilo and Stitch Front Lilo and Stitch Back Three Caballeros Front Three Caballeros Back Humpty Dumpty Front Humpty Dumpty Back Up Front Up Back Mary
