I loved everything from the food to the service to the atmosphere but what really blew me away was the dessert. As always, I chose the chocolate option on the menu, and I was certainly not disappointed. This is definitely one of the best things I’ve eaten on Walt Disney World property and one of the best desserts I’ve had in general. If you are a fan of chocolate, you definitely need to try it during your next visit!

Goodbye, January 2023! You’ve been such a wonder Goodbye, January 2023! You’ve been such a wonderful month for me! 🤍 This year, for the first time ever, I decided to start the year off with a focus on only myself. I spent a large part of January celebrating my birthday this year! From delicious dinners and coffee dates to hiking and surprise secret adventures, this month has been full of celebrating and I’ve embraced every single moment of it. After a few years of not feeling quite like myself due to anxiety and depression, it’s great to feel like ME AGAIN! 🎉 I love her and she’s BACK, BABY! In addition to celebrating myself as much as possible, I also honored my mental, physical, and spiritual needs with lots of rest, intentional movement, meditation, and reflection. 

My word for 2023 is community and now that I feel like myself again, I’m so excited to spend the year pouring into my community, while still remembering to fill up my own cup first.

I love being able to explore all of the little pat I love being able to explore all of the little paths that exist in Animal Kingdom. All of the gorgeous greenery in this park makes me feel happy, balanced, and calm. Whether it’s a quiet moment at a waterfall, watching birds enjoy the beautiful weather, or trying to see how many different types of plants I can spot, it’s such a peaceful place to spend the day. 🌳🤍

Adventures in Manhattan

Those of you who follow me on instagram and twitter probably already know that I spend a great deal of my time in New York City. Last week I was in the city for a bit of a “work-cation” and I had an incredible time despite the freezing cold. The highlights of my trip were definitely seeing Pippin, spending time behind the scenes at Good Morning America, getting a chance to hear Seth Meyers run through his monologue, and finally getting a chance to visit Huffington Post Live in person. The absolute highlight of my trip was meeting Norman Reedus at Huffington Post Live but I will share more on that tomorrow.

If you find yourself in the city anytime soon, I definitely recommend seeing Pippin. It’s everything a Broadway show should be. The music and dancing were amazing and I found myself actually holding my breath during the stunts. I was extra happy to be able to see one of my former neighbors perform (all that noise he made doing flips upstairs really paid off)!

Late Night with Seth Meyers was looking for audiences to run his monologue by, which was a unique and awesome opportunity. We happened to be in the NBC Experience store looking for a Stefon shirt when we were approached by some of the interns who work for the show. Every day they give out a certain number of tickets so that people can come watch Seth live as he tests out his monologue jokes. It’s fun, free, and a great way to see some of the building now that the studio tour isn’t running. In fact, we were able to meet the writers of the show and Bobby Moynihan while we were there.

Being on the set of Good Morning America was such an amazing experience and one that I will never forget. GMA doesn’t exactly have what you would call a studio audience. Instead, they have a small group of people who can watch the show while it is being filmed on an invite only basis. There isn’t anywhere to sit and they use every inch of the studio so you get shuffled around during commercial breaks, which only added to the excitement for me. I happen to know somebody who knows somebody, which sounds like something that people say in movies but is literally how I was able to attend the live show. There were only six of us in the studio that day that didn’t work on the show and four of those six were with me. I was most surprised to find how relaxed everyone is before the show starts, how low George Stephanopoulos speaks, and how much gum he chews while working (he blew a bubble during a commercial break)! Also, Liam Neeson (the guest that day) is way taller than I could have ever imagined.

I managed to do a few work related photo shoots while I was there even though my hands were freezing but I definitely shot less personal work than I usually do around the city. My hands were simply too cold to constantly have my camera in my hand and, to be honest, I worried if my camera could take some of those temperatures at night. All in all, I think I got a good amount of work to add to both my personal and professional portfolios but I am definitely looking forward to being back soon, when a little more of that snow has melted away.

One of my all time favorite traditions is going to One of my all time favorite traditions is going to see all the human sized gingerbread displays at @waltdisneyworld. They are all beautiful but the gingerbread house at Grand Floridian is my favorite. I love how you can smell it as soon as you walk into the lobby and I love taking a gingerbread shingle home for the perfect Christmas movie snack! 🤍🎄
