I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Tony Awards tonight. Plus, I beat everyone in my household at Tony Awards bingo! 😁

Have you seen the new Disney Annual Passholder exclusive beverages for summer? And even better - this year’s iced coffee koozie you get if you try them all!?

So cute. I’ve been excited for this and the photo doesn’t disappoint! The characters riding the monorail = adorable 🥰

I’ll start the challenge this coming week - what about you? ☕️ 🧊 ✨

POLL: I’m seeing a lot of restaurant advertising lately using AI photos - how do you feel about AI in place of real photos of the restaurant’s real food??

🐚 The plot of The Little Mermaid in under a minute:
Disney princess timelines are unmatched. 😂

And let’s be honest… Sebastian spent this entire story trying to keep things under control and absolutely nobody listened. 🦀

What’s your favorite Little Mermaid scene - in the movie OR the ride at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World?👇 ✨🌴

✨ Resort Spotlight: Disney's Riviera Resort ✨ Even if you're not staying here, Disney's Riviera Resort is absolutely worth a visit. Inspired by Walt Disney's travels through the French and Italian Riviera, this beautiful Disney Vacation Club resort combines elegant European charm with Disney storytelling and some of the best transportation access on property thanks to its dedicated Skyliner station. 🚡

A few of my favorite things here:
🇫🇷 The beautiful courtyards and waterfront views
🚡 Easy access via the Disney Skyliner
🎨 The breathtaking mosaic murals inspired by Peter Pan and Tangled (seriously, don't skip these)
🛍️ La Boutique, where you can often find unique resort merchandise and hidden treasures—including the elusive French Minnie Mouse bag charm I was hunting for on this visit!
☕️ Le Petit Cafe for coffee and pastries

One of the things I love most about Walt Disney World is that there are so many experiences beyond the parks themselves. Some of my favorite Disney days include resort hopping, exploring hidden details, grabbing a coffee, and taking time to appreciate the incredible theming Disney puts into every corner of the property.

Have you visited Disney's Riviera Resort? 👇 If not, add it to your Disney resort hopping agenda! ✨🌴

I already miss the Flower & Garden Festival at EPCOT - my favorite! - but am getting excited for the Food & Wine Festival menus to drop later this summer.

— If you could bring back one item from last year’s Food & Wine Festival, what would you choose?? —

(I’ll go first: the Korean bbq wings 🤤 I probably had these 10 times last year. Haha)

I feel like I’ve started off ‘43’ the right way! I had a wonderful birthday yesterday. We got my favorite candy, I did a lot of reading and coffee drinking early in the day, my Dad stopped by, Tony surprised me by coming home early and with lots of flowers, he and Liv took me to one of my favorite local restaurants in Sarasota (Comida) for a delicious dinner, we grabbed tea from 7Brew on the way home, blew out candles and had flourless chocolate cake, and ended the night getting my sister Jordan, and my niece and nephew from the airport for a visit! ❤️ It was a great day and I’m looking forward to the year ahead. Xoxo

Brick's Smoked Meats is one of those places we stumbled on at the right time. My husband and I were out exploring downtown Sarasota, had worked up an appetite, and Brick’s appeared out of nowhere. We could smell it as we got close….delicious, just like it tasted! 🤤

The appetizer was perfect - I could eat a boat load of those deviled eggs and bacon burnt ends. The entrees were super good as well and the collard greens were one of my favorite parts of the meal. And even though the menu clearly says 1/2 pound (of pork), I really underestimated the size of the portions. You absolutely will leave stuffed, and possibly with a to go box!

If you enjoy smoked meats, you’ll love Brick’s. We’ll be back for sure! ❤️
