Disney and Walmart Team Up for Your Holiday Feastings!

 



How fun!

Walmart has released a few new items for our kitchens this holiday season.  Two appliances - an Olaf waffle maker and a Mickey Mouse Instapot - are now available for purchase.




The Mickey Mouse Instapot comes in three colors - Black, red, and white.  The Olaf waffle maker cooks Olaf waffles in sections so you can pose him however you want on your plate!

Disney has always been gracious lending out their characters for kitchen appliances.  In the past, we have seen Mickey Mouse toasters, waffle makers, and pancake molds.  Now, with the addition of Frozen characters to appliances, we can have a well-rounded and MAGICAL dining experience!




Here are some product details.  Olaf Waffle Maker:

  • Bakes Olaf the Snowman waffle pieces
  • Illuminated power and ready light
  • Easy clean non-stick baking plates

Mickey Mouse Instapot:

  • Instant Pot Duo 6-qt.

Happy shopping, cooking, and dining!

Disney on Ice's Frozen Lights Up Atlanta!



Welcome to Arendelle!

Yes, Frozen's fictional Norwegian town came to Atlanta this week, and you still have time to visit it this weekend.

Before I give this brief review, let me state up front - we were 30 min. late to the production due to the horrendous traffic in Downtown Atlanta.  When we arrived, we found we were not the only ones late; this show is PACKING in the crowds - our show looked to be almost completely sold out.  So, all that said - please make sure you leave in plenty of time for travel, traffic, and parking.

As with all Disney on Ice shows, as you enter the arenas you are bombarded with Disney music and souvenirs.  Included are all types of assorted Frozen paraphernalia, so come with deep pockets or an iron will power - items included the obligatory snow cone cups and cotton candy items along with Frozen dolls and t-shirts.

This Disney on Ice show follows the movie pretty much to a "T."  You will know definitely know all the words and music.  Each time a new character from the film arrived onto the ice, cheers ERUPTED from the crowd.  One of my favorites was Svan.  Who doesn't love this reindeer?



As with all Disney productions, quality is top of the line -- fantastic ice skaters, costumes, lighting, and special effects.  (If you are lucky enough to sit on the lower level, snow falls from the ceiling for most of the show.)



As I stated above, the ice show primarily follows the movie script, so children will know when each song is coming.  One of the highlights of the show is, of course, Elsa singing, "Let it Go."  As the scene started coming together, you could feel the rumbling in the air and hear all the children starting to murmur with excitement.  Before you knew it, the first few notes of, "Let it Go," played, and the whole arena erupted in cheers and screams.  I was sandwiched in between three little girls who sang from beginning to end at the top of their lungs (mostly off-key, but grinning profusely the entire time).  It is definitely hard to hold back tears when you are faced with magical Disney moments like this!

I was sitting on the second level, so my video was not the best.  Here is a clip from YouTube to give you a sneak peek of this magical moment:


Another favorite part of Disney on Ice for me is the bookending they do with core Disney characters.  Since I missed the front end of the show, I was ecstatic to see Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and a host of other Disney characters close out Frozen.


One other character note:  While Anna, Elsa, and Kristoff have been in the Disney Parks for a while now, this is the first time we are treated to Svan, Olaf, Hans, the trolls, and even the Duke of Weselton.  Nice to see all them in person!

Other fun effects include pyrotechnics during some scenes along with those scary wolves chasing Anna and Kristoff through the woods (yes, the wolves are on ice too)!

Overall, this Disney on Ice show is fabulous.  It doesn't travel far from the movie script, and that is good since all of America has seen this movie way too many times to count anymore.  It is a fun day or evening out for the whole family.

I mean, who doesn't enjoy a good sing-a-long combined with a Disney on Ice spectacular?

Disney On Ice's Frozen plays Atlanta's Philips Arena through TOMORROW.  You can still get tickets through Ticketmaster or the Philips Arena box office.

FROZEN Merchandise Still Available at Zulily!


Click here to visit Zulily's Frozen event!

Zulily's Frozen event is still going on.

Truth be told, Zulily always has Disney stuff (sometimes even Frozen merchandise, as I posted a week or two earlier).  Just do a quick search on their site, and all of it will show up.

I like Zulily because they have low prices a lot of times and because you get rewarded for referring your friends to the site.  I've gotten a few **FREE** things over the years (including awesome things like Toms shoes)!

This sale is extensive - school supplies, vinyl clings, books, clothes, posters, DVDs, Jelly Belly candies, pet items...the collection is all-encompassing - that is for sure.  You really will want to take a peek at it, if you haven't already.  I was surprised at the vast array of items they are selling, most of which I have never seen anywhere, including Disney!

What are you waiting for?  Click on the caption above to visit Zulily and immerse yourself in the magic of Frozen this summer!

Here are a few examples from their collection, but don't wait.  The event ends in two days!
