It’s true. I’m back! After a little over a year, THPB has returned with a brand new look and some new tricks up its sleeves. But more on that soon. Right now, I want to say thanks so much for stopping by to read today—which also happens to be my dad’s birthday. Yes, I did […]
Read MoreMy recent trip to Walt Disney World is further proof that no two trips are the same. It was nothing like last Wine & Dine when I felt more social over productive and I didn’t exactly follow this must-do list I made about a month before I was leaving. (Why am I always missing the fresh ice […]
Read MoreIn January, James and I were most looking forward to spending an entire day in Animal Kingdom. The park was open until 8; we had nowhere else we had to be and it was going to be awesome. (It was especially awesome when Amanda from Nerds in Wonderland caught up with us; it was not […]
Read MoreEvery since This Happy Place Blog started in 2011, the month of April has been dedicated to Animal Kingdom Appreciation. So here we are once again! (I know, I know… we just had Muppets but what can I say — I like themes!) Hope you’ll follow along this month for an eclectic collection of AK […]

To make the planning experience easier. To make […]
Read MoreIt’s literally been a month since I went to WDW for Wine & Dine weekend. Where oh where does the time go? I’ve actually been wondering when I would get some kind of recap in since I have a lot of holiday-themed posts scheduled for December already. But I thought I would start small & […]
Read MoreA few months ago, Katherine from Food Fitness Fantasy let the cat out of the bag. (Ha. We both have cute cats so this is so fitting.) I’m keeping one of my martini-filled promises and tagging along for her Wine & Dine weekend trip in a few short weeks. (It is coming up so soon!) I guess […]
