Hi, friends! This is the weekend I would normally be celebrating the fourth anniversary of This Happy Place Blog. I can’t believe it. Four years almost feels like a lifetime ago. It might not also be a total shock that I’m feeling some growing pains when it comes to this blog and how I want […]
Read MoreWell, we took a small break last month from KILL REFURB MARRY just to prep for this one… kind of. I’m not cramming and don’t this the night before. Nope. Not me. Not Estelle. Now if you are asking how do you kill extinct attractions at your favorite Disney theme park… you’re at the right […]
Read MoreGreetings, pals! Hope you are doing well. Kill Refurb Marry is a game that Melissa of Mouse on the Mind founded last year where we pick a topic and tirelessly stress over which to discard, change, or keep forever. It can be painful, but it’s also wonderful and month after month (we host these the […]
Read MoreI have no idea what it is (winters’ fingers prying onto New York maybe) but I have been aching for a Disney vacation lately. I know I just got back from one in January but that already seems eons of years ago. (See? The cold ruins everything.) I’m making the best out of it here. […]
Read MoreKill Refurb Marry Day is always a good day. I like this subject a lot. I crowd-sourced a bit on Twitter before I wrote this and reasons why people love sidekicks seem to range from loving the actor who voiced them to remembering those feel-good characters.Which sidekick would you want for your best friend and which […]
Read MoreWell, we all have to turn thirty sometimes. Right? RIGHT? Ahem. I’m well-rested from an extended trip to Orlando (thanks to “blizzard” Juno)… even a week later. So I say that’s a pretty good trip, huh? I plan on talking about my November and January trips super soon (I’m going to stretch out these recaps […]
Read MoreWe’re BACK! Did you miss us? I mean, it’s only been a month so you don’t have to act obsessed with us or anything. (I kid, I kid.) Melissa & I are pumped for a new year of snarky and creative posts. So tell your friends! Tell your mom. Let’s make this the biggest year […]
Read MoreHere we are again. Another pesky year comes to an end. It’s difficult to sum up an entire year when you are in denial that it’s just about finished, and a new one will be starting. 2014 has definitely been an interesting one: full of new experiences, lots of change, and, as always, many lessons […]
Read MoreDrinking coffee and shopping are two activities I practice at home, and must be a part of my vacation too. In the case of Disney theme parks, the shopping has been better than the coffee situation until recently (thank the java lords for Starbucks) and there are a few shops I must frequent on every […]
Read MoreA note: I don’t know if you could tell but I like tradition around here. It’s just part of the reason why I’m happy to have Josh of Mousterpiece Cinema stop by during each holiday season with his Disney-themed gift guide. Here’s to another great year of films and passing them on to family and friends we love. […]
