When someone says “Knott’s Berry Farm” a lot comes to mind… Boysenberries of course, fried chicken, the infamous Ghost Town created because of the massive lines for said famous chicken, and perhaps Peanuts characters. What may not immediately spring to mind though is the Liberty Bell or Independence Hall, even though an exact replica of…

“It’s Called a Hustle, Sweetheart”

If you follow me on Instagram you may have spied I recently completed a parasol inspired by Disney Animation Studio’s recent film, Zootopia, which I quite enjoyed. Well, the other day I finally took it for a spin and Disneybounded as Nick Wilde. Both Nick and Judy are currently at Disney’s California Adventure for meet-and-greets, however on the…

Goodbye to the Fantasyland Skyway Station

Sorry for the dead air as of late. I caught what has been going around down here, a late spring cold that had me laid up for the last two weeks. I’m finally beginning to feel better and can finally begin to focus on blogging again. Four years ago I wrote a post dedicated to…

Fantasia is one of Disney’s most classic films, albeit a strange film, as it is comprised of several shorts in which animation is set to classical music, and lacks dialogue. However, it remains just as enchanting over 70 years later. Every short is a work of art, but of course I can’t help but have…

While many were busy celebrating Mother’s Day last weekend, we were busy celebrating Patrick’s birthday, which happened to fall on Mother’s Day this year, just as it did when he was born. Now, that isn’t to say we didn’t think of our mothers that day! So don’t sit there thinking we totally ignored them! Anyway!…

Dapper Day!

Over the weekend I got to attend my first Dapper Day at Disneyland! And it was both amazing and overwhelming! But first, what is Dapper Day? Dapper Day is a twice yearly “unofficial” (as Disney has no part in the planning) event that happens at three Disney parks; Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and Disneyland Paris.…

Over the weekend we went to Disneyland and since it’s still my birthday month, I saw this as a perfect time to do a Ferdinand the Bull Disneybound, as I’m a Taurus and I had a Ferdinand Taurus pin! It was also a perfect time to debut my Ferdinand parasol! Ferdinand was one of the…

Last Sunday, Pinup Girl Clothing (or PUG, and pronounced like the dog, as it is affectionately called) hosted Pin-Up Parade in the Park, their themed day at Disneyland Park. It’s a day to celebrate pin-up style, while, preferably of course wearing PUG’s stuff, and enjoying the park with many, many vintage and retro loving gals. I…

“You’ve never heard of the Millennium Falcon?”

Over the weekend one of my friends celebrated her birthday, and as most of her friends are Disneyland annual passholders, she decided to have a get-together at Disneyland. She’s also a big Star Wars fan, so she asked friends to wear something Star Wars related. It was a perfect moment to showcase another parasol as well…

Knott’s Boysenberry Festival

For the last two weeks Knott’s Berry Farm has been celebrating its annual Boysenberry Festival. As a fan of all things boysenberry, I had to go! The list of unique boysenberry dishes was quite long, and it actually took two visits for us to eat all that we wanted to. But the fun didn’t end with…
