Mickey Beignets!

A staple for us at Disneyland are the Mickey shaped beignets. If we’re going to rope drop, we’re getting beignets. If we’re waiting for Fantasmic, we’re getting beignets. If we’re just in the mood, we’re getting BEIGNETS! You get it. When we saw that the Disney Parks Blog had released the recipe for these beignets, we couldn’t wait to try it and bring a little magic (and comfort) to our home… and kitchen!

If you want to try it yourself, you can find the recipe here!

Why We Love Being Annual Passholders

Processed with VSCO with l7 preset

Last weekend, we ended our day at the park with a purchase at the Castle Holiday Shoppe in Fantasyland. The cast member helping us asked if we were annual passholders (we are) and then she asked us what our favorite part about being an annual passholder is. We haven’t been asked that question in a loooonng time and it made us think…what IS our favorite part about being annual passholders?

Kenzie: “You can be a little spontaneous! Many times when Courtney and I have been down in Orange County visiting our parents (and the dogs), we’ve made a pit stop for some churros or popcorn. We used to do it in High School too, after class we’d go to Disneyland for the night and just hang out. No pressure, no plans.”

Courtney: “My favorite thing about being a passholder is being able to go to the park any time. We can go just for dinner or to catch a parade or show that we haven’t seen in a while. Also, we get to experience Disney year round, through every holiday. I can’t wait to see the park all decked out for Christmas! It’s my favorite”

Cody: “The Food. That’s not really an annual passholder answer but my favorite part is the food…”
