October 2024 Bits

This week I’m sharing a few new Bits that caught my eye. Nothing better than finding new must have pieces for your closet. I’ll say since loosing 20lbs shopping is way more fun! I just purchased this calf hair belt in a S/M which tickled me to no end! Of course I thoroughly enjoyed the Netflix series - Nobody Wants This - so much so I’ve watched it twice! I pre-ordered my instafriend Natalie Papier’s book as well as the latest Tears For Fears disc. I’m loving the home collection Anthropologie partnered with Met Museum on. I’m excited to read The Wedding People for book club - which is getting rave reviews and Ina Garten’s memoir is on my super short must read list.

Truly Magical!

Friends we closed out summer 2023 with a trip to Orlando Florida last week. We were fortunate that Hurricane Idalia didn’t impact us.

We visited Epcot, Universal, Hollywood Studios, Typhoon Lagoon and the Magic Kingdom. We stayed at the Beach Club Resort which is close to Epcot. We like to be close to Epcot during the annual Food & Wine Festival so we can pop over just to walk around and eat and drink from the many kiosks they set up or at one of the regular restaurants. We also had delightful lunches in the parks.

Here’s a peek at our trip. (I took over 400 photos!)

Our Last Day was spent at the Magic Kingdom

Disney is not for the faint of heart and I’m glad we only visit every five years. We have my sister and niece to thank for all their planning. My sister could be a travel agent for her exemplary attention to detail she started planning this trip a year ago. My niece stepped in with her first hand knowledge of Lighting Lanes; having visited the parks recently and got us onto every ride we wished to enjoy some more than once!

If you’re wondering my favorite ride is a tie between Peter Pan’s Flight in the Magic Kingdom and Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in Epcot. A fan favorite with the rest of the family was Tron in the Magic Kingdom.

These trips are what memories are made of! I feel truly blessed to have had such fun!

Til next time friends be well.
