And while I will be the first to ... Read More

REVIEW: There’s a New King in Town

... Or is there? Before I begin, I think it’s important I say that, like all of the most recent films produced by Disney, I wanted this to do well. I want nothing less than the next great film from the most successful media company there has ever been. That being said, these are my ... Read More

  • 💚💙The insta-famous Blue Milk/Green Milk combo! If you can’t decide which to try of these frozen, non-dairy concoctions, try both (and get an extra cup if you want to mix them like above!) which would make Aunt Beru and Luke Skywalker proud...I think? 😆 . 💙The blue milk is a blend of coconut and rice milks with flavors or dragon fruit, pineapple, lime, and watermelon. To me, this tasted like a Hawaiian air freshener smells...or Fruit Stripe gum haha. . 💚The green milk is also coconut and rice milks with mandarin orange, passion fruit, grapefruit, and orange blossom. To me, this one was like a floor cleaner smells 😬 maybe it was the grapefruit, I dunno, but this one was even less appealing to me. . Both of these come in alcoholic versions, the blue adds Bacardi Rum and the green adds Corazon Blanco tequila. I tried the blue with alcohol Saturday and you can’t really taste much. (thanks to @vegandisneyfood for these descriptions check site her out!) . My recommendations, if you aren’t a big fruity flavored person (which normally I am!) is maybe have a sip of a friends just to say you’ve tried it haha. And if you’re looking for alcoholic options, I’d stick with Oga’s Cantina which will be a better bang for your buck. . You can also get a light up souvenir sipper so you can carry your favorite around with you if you are a fan of these drinks. Scroll to see prices and the sipper! . Have you tried either? What did you think and which is your favorite? Let me know in the comments below!
  • So nice to finally see some blue skies and #BrightSuns in #Batuu yesterday! Had an amazing time drinking and eating and exploring with @vegandisneyfood (@amandatinney), @mousesteps Denise and @mousestepsweekly Jeff! I also bumped into so many old twitter pals I haven’t seen in ages @heatherw25, @mrbrettyoung, @disdug, had a @schmooferino sighting, @ryno1185 and I shared our love for Ewoks, and ran into (almost literally) @ashleyeckstein from @heruniverse too! (And probably more I’m forgetting) Such a fun day at #GalaxysEdge 💫🌔✨ . I’m trying to decide if I prefer Batuu in the day or night...which is your favorite so far? #TilTheSpire!
  • My favorite section of #Batuu was the Market area. In all of the previews and presentations I’d seen of Galaxy’s Edge, this seemed like the most unique and intriguing, and it did not disappoint. The amount of detail that is in this small section is mind-boggling. It is open-air and HOT, even at night but that only adds to the authenticity of the space. I can’t wait to go back and explore more. Here are a few photos just of the top of the marketplace (I love lighting shots what can I say) as well as a peek at Ronto Roasters, the area behind the market and the entrance to the market at night.
  • I know Galaxy’s Edge has been covered far and wide, and even tho I am an original movie fan, I wasn’t *incredibly* excited to see this new land. However - I was really blown away by the the details. Honestly, it didn’t matter to me that it was Star Wars, but the fact that I had that vague familiarity made it seem more comfortable and welcoming. Anyway, I’ll have a blog post up soon with my thoughts but I just wanted to share some of my nighttime photos. ✨Rising Moons! 🌕

  • Sci-fi Dine-in Theater has always been a favorite in our family. The menu has changed many times over the years, but the atmosphere is always a wonderful time capsule and I hope it never changes. 👽🤖🍿🚙🎬 . Have you been to Sci-fi? What’s your favorite part? The food? The movies on screen?
