A little over a year ago, while stuck in traffic, Kevin and I were listening to a Disney themed Podcast.

The guest on the show was talking about how they wrote a book about Disney through a company called Theme Park Press. I sat there, while getting frustrated with the traffic, and thought that I could do that. I could write a book about Walt Disney World.

I then decided to combine my two loves, Walt Disney World and my daughter, and contacted the publisher at Theme Park Press.

And now about a year later, the rest they say is history!

Now I am super excited to say that “Mousekatots,” your official guide on how to do your Walt Disney World vacation with minimal meltdowns, is officially on sale!

Available in both Kindle and paperback, “Mousekatots,” leads you through every step on planning a memorable Walt Disney World vacation with your toddler.

So far, things have been going well. The major test will be in a few weeks when the summer season is in full swing.

Rumor Watch: Rizzo’s Pizza

A rumor has been floating around that the former Pizza Planet, located in what is being called Muppet Courtyard, will be reopened and redesigned as Rizzo’s Pizza.

It will feature a heavy Muppet theme surrounded around the cheesy rat, Rizzo and his pals.

We will have to wait and see if this pans out.
