Disneyland Food Guide: For Treat Lovers

Can you believe this Disneyland food pictures are from all the way back in October?  I have been dreaming of Disneyland and figured it was time I needed to get this blog post done!  I love at each holiday Disneyland has the cutest treats to go along with the holiday!  All the pumpkin treats were too cute!  

This was a Micky Mouse pumpkin rice crispy treat!  It had white chocolate and sprinkles on top!  I love any of the rice crispy with white chocolate on them, and with the fun orange sprinkles, this crispy was perfect! 

Disneyland Food Guide: For Treat Lovers!

I always tell people, if you are only going to get one treat from the Disney bakery, a Fruit Skewer is always a good pick!  It is a huge pineapple wedge dipped in dark chocolate and it is amazing! My mom does not like dark chocolate, but she loves these pineapple skewers!  I have never found someone to not like them!  The combo a cold and juicy Dole Pineapple wedge, smothered in thick chocolate, is oh so tasty!  

My nephew Bryce in this photo got a chocolate Mickey cake pop!  They make the cake pop with marshmallow ears for Mickey! How cute is that?!  Bryce loved the chocolate pop and ate it all up!

Disneyland Food Guide: Cozy Cone Motel
Disneyland Food Guide: Cozy Cone Motel

Not only is The Cozy Cone Motel the cutest ever! But it has the best food and drinks!  We can never pass up getting a chili cone queso from one of the cones!  This is one item we never like to pass up eating at the park!  Something about a bread cone, and chili, oh so delicious!  I also really love the pretzels at one of the cone huts!  They are big fluffy pretzel balls and dipped in cheese, they are soo good!  I heard their popcone (popcorn) is delicious and has fun flavors but have not had a chance to try it yet!

Disneyland Food Guide: Churros

A churro is always a Disneyland must!  Our favorite churro cart is by the Hunted Mansion.  I swear there churros are the best!  If you are at California Adventure, our favorite churro cart is in Bugs Land! Also, I heard Disneyland now has Churro Ice cream sandwiches and different flavored churros right outside disneyland at Downtown Disney!  We have been need to go for a Disney trip just to try those!

Disneyland Food Guide: Flat Bread Pizza

One of Jakes favorite meals at the park is at Pinocchio's Village Haus.  He really likes their flat bread pizzas! Since it was Halloween Time, they had a few food specials, and this buffalo chicken flat bread pizza was one of them!  Jake and I both love spicy and hot food so we new we hat to try it!  Of course we loved it too!  When were at Village Haus eats, we sat at the exit where the Frozen characters were and we loved peeking in when people would walk out and see the fun going on there!

Disneyland Food Guide: Dole Whip

Jake always want a Dole Whip from the Tiki Juice Bar!  He would eat 10 of these everyday if there was not a million places we wanted to try and eat at Disneyland! Even if there is a wait for a dole whip, its always worth it!  P.S. Always order your Dole whip inside the waiting area for the Tiki Room is the outside line is long! There usually is never a wait in that line!

Disneyland Food Guide: Ruben Sandwich

Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe is a place we love to stop and eat.  Its also great for groups since they have a large selection of sandwiches, soups, salads, etc. to eat there!  We have loved every thing we have ordered there!  This was our first time trying the reuben sandwich.  There sandwiches are big and enough food for two!  The sandwich was delicious and we topped off our meal with a Matterhorn Macaron.  The Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe is the only place I know of at the park to get a Matterhorn Macaron and they are the perfect light, and fresh coconut white chocolate treat to go with any meal!

Disneyland Food Guide: Paradise Garden Grill
Disneyland Food Guide: Paradise Garden Grill

A new place we tried at California Adventure was called Paradise Garden Grill!  We have always seen it tucked in the corner, and were so glad we went to eat there!  They had lots of fresh meat skewers to pick from and was a healthy choice at the park!  Next time though I will probably get the chicken skewer. We will eat here again next time we go!  Also there is a lot of seating around this area and live music groups that come play, so its a wonderful place to enjoy a meal!

Disneyland Food Guide: Olaf Marshmallow Skewer

Olaf for the win!  Normally I don't jump to eat a marshmallow, but this Olaf was so cute I wanted to eat him.  He was marshmallows dipped in carmel and white chocolate.  I never guessed this would be the most magical combination every!  Jake and I both agreed it was our new favorite treat at the theme park!  In fact we loved it so much, we bought a bunch little marshmallow Olafs to take home to family and they all loved them!  He got raving reviews from the entire fam!

Snow White Poison Apple

We are always so impressed with the craftsmanship of the Disney Chocolatiers!  I mean, how rad is this "poison" carmel apple?!  We thought it was just perfect!  I love all the cute designs on the fun apples! 

Paradise Pier Ice Creamy Company

Paradise Pier Ice Creamy Company is always a great stop on a hot day! Nothing better than a swirl ice cream on a cone!

Disneyland Food Guide For Treat Lovers

Any time we pass a Disney bakery/candy shop at the park we can't help but stop in for a quick snack!  The black spider is a cakepop with gummy bear legs.  They do all flavors of cake pops and I got the vanilla kind since its dipped in milk chocolate and black sprinkles!  After I ate this cake pop my mouth was black!  Jake and I were cracking up!  It was worth it though since the spider was fun to eat and he was perfect for Halloween time at the park!  I decided though, I am not much of a cake pop girl.  The quality of it is fantastic, but I really love the taste of rice crispy or a carmel better.  I still cant resist buying the cake pops though because they are a work of art, they are so cute!

The middle item in the picture above is a Matterhorn Macaroon!  They are found at the Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe.  These are the perfect treat to throw in your bag because they are not messy and hold well!  Also for Disney prices, they are on the inexpensive end!  They sort of taste like a coconut girls scout cookie, but even better!

The item on the right is a Maleficent Rice Crisply Treat!  I thought it was so darling!  It was really tasty!  I have found though on the rice crispy treats, taste wise I like the ones with no chocolate on them or only white chocolate.  Then the crispy taste and marshmallows really stand out!

Disneyland Food Guide for Treat Lovers

After eating several Olafs, we tried pumpkin marshmallow skewers.  They were just as good since they had the carmel and white chocolate combo on them!  We never knew we would be so hooked on marshmallows!  Jake liked the Olaf one better since it didn't have sprinkles and just playing chocolate, but I liked the sprinkles!

Bangled Barbecue Bacon wrapped Asparagus
Bangled Barbecue

If Jake and I are trying to eat better, or we ate so much junk food and we are trying to eat a quick and healthy meal, we end up at the Bangled Barbecue.  The service is always exceptional here!  I always find the cast members to be fantastic, but every time we have been at the Bangled Barbecue the service has been off the charts fantastic!  We have tried all the skewers multiple times and love them all! I also think the price is great and you get full on healthy food choices! They are also a great snack!

Carthay Circle Restaurant at California Adventure
Carthay Circle Restaurant at California Adventure

Jake and I made reservations at Carthay Circle Restaurant at California Adventure for our first time!  Ever since this restaurant was built we have been excited to eat here! I am so glad we finally got to go.  I do have to say though, we were both disappointed.  The service was great, but the lighting was a little to dark.  I don't know if it was an off day, but it was kind of hard to see in the room, and I always love to see my meals.  The presentation of the food is always so beautiful at Disney restaurants I was bummed I couldn't see all the colors of the food on the plate.  We got a pork chop dish that we kept hearing great reviews about, but didn't love it.  It had a few too many flavors going on.  It was a great sized dish big enough for Jake and I to split, so that was nice!  Next time we go I want to try a few different dishes and find one we love.  I am not giving up on finding the perfect meal at Carthay Circle!

A few weeks ago Jake and I were so lucky to have my mother, sister Hayley and three of her darling kids stay with us for almost a week!  We were in heaven!  We love when ever family is able to come visit!

One day while they were here we were able to a Tulip Festival!  The kids loved seeing the flowers and had fun running around!  We ate at some food trucks and had a great time enjoying the sunshine! Nothing better than a day outside in the sun with the ones you love!

Thank you for stopping by today! Have a wonderful week!

I don't know if there is anything better than having a little "you" time and relaxing!  And even better, hanging out with the one you love!  One of our favorite places to go to when we are spending time at the Montage Deer Valley Resort is at the Spa!  These pictures are from the Mosaic Pool Spa where men and women are both able to hang out.  There are private men's and women's areas that have a steam room, sauna, whirl pool, and meditation/lounge with snacks and so much more!  It was all so dreamy and the perfect place to rejuvenate!  

These areas at the spa are complimentary for guests which is a plus!  We have been lucky to enjoy some lovely resorts in our day, and this was the first time we have stayed at a resort that the spa areas didn't add an additional charge onto our room! We liked that!  They also had a kids swim time for this large pool in case you wanted to come enjoy an indoor pool with your kiddos!  They also had a really nice outdoor heated pool too :)  On a side note, they had complimentary fitness classes as well that we really wanted to try and didn't get a chance!  We were so impressed they had cycling, yoga and a beautiful gym for guests!

Next time we visit I want to make an appointment for a couple's massage! I think it would be worth it! Or take a soaking bath!  They had the most beautiful copper tubs in front a lovely fire place! There were so many fun activities to do at the resort that we didn't get to fit everything in we wanted to!  We took a tour of the Spa and were overwhelmed with the beauty and how much time was spent in the detail of the place.  The design of each room was so well thought out and stunning.

Our favorite part about the spa was the art.  There is an artist in park city named Fatali.  His photography is so surreal.  All his pictures have a peace and elegance to them.  Every picture I have seen of his is so inspirational.  He takes pictures of landscapes and makes them look magical!  In the Montage Deer Valley Resort Spa,  Fatali's work is hung up in several locations in the spa.  When we walked into the spa rooms and saw many of his pieces of art on the walls, Jake and I instantly fell in love with the spaces!  With the dark wood and crafts-man style decor, the spa was perfection at its finest. 

Thanks for stopping by the blog! We hope you have an amazing rest of the week!

Its all about that FRINGE

A few weeks ago, Jake and I went on a random adventure to Montana/Yellowstone.  We were so glad we went!  We are already planning another trip to go someday we loved it so much!  We went off season so not everything was open in Yellowstone, but what was open in the Northern part of Yellowstone was super neat to see!  Someday we hope to explore the whole park!

Jake had recently surprised me with this awesome fringe coat from All Saints.  When we both looked at this river, I was so glad I was wearing this coat!  It was the perfect place to run around in it and take pictures!  To make it even better is that we saw a bison!  I wanted to see one so bad and was so shocked we saw one within minutes of being out and exploring!

When Jake and I go on adventures we always make sure to pack some Palladium Boots!  They are always the perfect shoes to go exploring for any type of weather or occasion!  We are loving there new spring styles and the lower cuts on their traditional boot!  We can't wait to share some more spring Palladium Boots with you all soon!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Hope you have a fantastic week!

When Jake and I stayed at the Montage Deer Valley Resort one thing we loved is they had really neat and unique board games that you could play in the lobby.   Our favorite was the Vintage 3D Clue game!  I grew up playing this game, so it brought back some very fun memories for me!  I love playing board games with Jake!
