Even the fanciest of cheese boards could use a sophisticated touch.

Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge

Sure, you could add extra fruits, spreads, and honey. OR, you could toss all of those aside and just marvel at the cheese board itself — especially if it’s Disney themed! So buckle up, because we’re going to a galaxy far far away!

We present to you the [not so fast] hunk of junk coming straight to your kitchen. The Millennium Falcon Cutting Board.

You can put it into hyperdrive and use it to dice up ingredients for your favorite dinner or stack it high with snacks and cheeses galore.

But we can’t get over the DETAIL. Someone must have waited a long time in line for Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run to map out all of those curves and panels.

It even comes with a natural leather handle so you can hang it up for storage orrrr as the perfect compliment to your kitchen decor. We spotted it for $49.99 plus shipping.

You can pick up your own cutting board here!

Guess What Epcot Update Just Hit the Disney World Website!

Do you ever have a nagging feeling that you’re forgetting something IMPORTANT like — oh say — a DATE?

Walt Disney World

With the big news that Disney World will be proposing its reopening plan tomorrow, we almost didn’t realize what TODAY IS!

Remember waaaay back before the Disney parks closed when Disney announced Spaceship Earth would be closing down to undergo a rather-lengthy refurb? Well, guess what, friends? That day is TODAY, May 26th!

Epcot’s Spaceship Earth

Learn more about Disney’s BIG CHANGES for Spaceship Earth here!

And rather sadly, when we checked Disney World’s website today, we couldn’t believe our EYES! After lots of rubbing, and maybe a few stray tears (it’s just our allergies acting up, we swear…) Disney has officially updated Spaceship Earth’s status as under refurbishment — SAY IT AIN’T SO!

Disney World’s Website

UGHHHH! We were soooo crossing our fingers hoping that Spaceship Earth might be SPARED! Or at least the refurb would be temporarily delayed so we’d have the chance to say goodbye to the version of Spaceship Earth we know and LOVE!

Disney World’s Website

Will we get the chance to say goodbye to Spaceship Earth? As of right now, it isn’t looking good!

Shout-out to our buddy @jim.disney on Instagram for pointing out this rather sobering bit of Disney news. We haven’t heard any official word from Disney regarding Spaceship Earth since the temporary closure, so maybe it’s just a computer thing?! We can still dream, right?!?!

Going Up!

We’ll let you know if we hear ANY more news the second we find out, but for now it seems like once Epcot reopens, Spaceship Earth might NOT!

Read about MORE construction projects at Disney World that could be affected by the temporary closure here!

Post date May 26, 2020

Now that Univeral Orlando has successfully had its plan approved to reopen its theme parks to the public on June 5th, Disney World is about to undergo the same process.

Cinderella Castle

Disney World will be presenting its plan to Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings at 10AM Eastern tomorrow morning. If accepted by the Mayor and his committee, it will be passed to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for final approval along with a possible reopening date for Disney World’s theme parks.

Mayor Demings said the highly-anticipated presentation will be happening tomorrow morning and that he’s already previewed Disney World’s plan this morning. “We’re looking forward to sharing good news about their plans,” Demings stated.

Disney World Monorail

Florida’s Orange County Economic Recovery Task Force will vote first on the plan before submitting it to the Governor’s office. SeaWorld is also expected to present its reopening plan tomorrow as well.

Magic Kingdom

In preparation for tomorrow’s big meeting, an Orange County Inspection team visited Disney World and SeaWorld today to determine if they were in compliance with recommended guidelines. We’ll continue to follow this story as it develops.

See what our experience at Disney Springs has been like since some of the shops and restaurants have recently started to reopen here!

News! Disneyland Could Potentially Reopen in Less Than a Month, Says California Officials

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date May 26, 2020

While several Florida-based theme parks including Universal Orlando have or will be resuming their operations soon, state officials have just announced if the situation remains stable, California’s theme parks will be permitted to reopen in Phase Three which could be starting as early as June.

Disneyland Resort

This includes major attractions such as Disneyland and Universal Studios Hollywood along with Knott’s Berry Farm, Six Flags Magic Mountain, SeaWorld San Diego, Legoland California, and other theme parks.

Just a day ago, California’s Orange County met the required criteria and was cleared to transition into a “full stage two” of California’s reopening plan.

Disneyland Resort

Previously, some counties had been allowed to resume “limited services” at some retail locations, allowing curbside pickup and outdoor museums to operate. Since yesterday, counties are now able to make their own decisions regarding reopening in-store retail as long as certain safety measures and precautions are being taken into consideration.

Disneyland Resort

As reported by the Orange County Register, California is now starting to shape Phase Three of its gradually unfolding plan, including when we might expect it to happen.

“Phase 3 is not a year away. It’s not six months away. It’s not even three months away. It may not even be more than a month away,” California Governor Gavin Newsom said. “We just want to make sure we have a protocol in place to secure customer safety, employee safety, and allow the businesses to thrive in a way that is sustainable.”

Disneyland Main Entrance

According to California Health and Human Services Agency spokesperson Kate Folmar, “The California Department of Public Health will issue detailed guidance with suggested modifications for how to minimize the risk of COVID-19 spread when theme parks reopen.”

In addition to California’s theme parks reopening as early as next month, other “higher risk” businesses including salons, gyms, movie theaters, sporting events, and religious ceremonies are also being discussed with limited capacity and several modifications. We’ll continue to follow this story as it develops.
