Wordless Wednesday: FREE Entertainment!


It’s no secret a trip to Walt Disney World isn’t cheap. You might be surprised at how many free things there are to do in and out of the parks. World Showcase at Epcot has a ton of live entertainment daily. These performers are in Italy and are a must see! Just be prepared to possibly becoming part of the show.

Karen grew up in the Boston area and traveled to Disney World many times with her parents and sister. Always staying at the Fort Wilderness Cabins gave the trips a feeling of a home away from home. It also started the tradition of attending the Hoop Dee Doo Review on each trip! Somehow that show sparked her interest in the Disney College Program. Which she did in the fall of 2002, working as a hostess @ Captain Jacks in Downtown Disney. Now as an adult, Karen finds herself traveling to the parks on a yearly basis! Photography has always been a hobby of Karen’s, but over the past few years it has become her passion. It’s even taken her to her favorite place! The Make a Wish Foundation sent a family to Disney for a week and Karen was lucky enough to be their photographer of choice! She got to tag along and photograph their memories being made. She hopes to get that experience again someday! You can find more of Karen’s photography on her site www.KPportraits.com.

Thrifty Thursday: Epcot International Food and Wine Festival 2012

Epcot International Food and Wine Festival: six words that are sweet, delicious music to every Disney foodie’s ears. 

Walking around the World Showcase, sipping and snacking, is a great way to spend an afternoon (or two … or three) during Food and Wine, but it’s not exactly the most cost-effective way to get your Disney dining done. 

But never fear! I’ve been to the Food and Wine Festival, and I’ve got you covered. Here are my top five picks for the thriftiest treats at this year’s festival: 

Pumpkin Mousse from Hops and Barley (Mouse on the Mind)1. Pumpkin Mousse from Hops and Barley (American Adventure) 
Not only is this the cheapest eat on my list at $1.50, it’s also my all-time favorite Food and Wine snack. Yes, it’s small, but there are four or five good bites here, and every one of them is delicious. It’s got cool, creamy pudding,  chewy craisins and a little bit of crunch from the oat crumble topping. Perfect, delicious and thrifty.
