She recently appeared at my door and asked, “How would you like to photograph some treats?” I think I proved a person can travel faster than the speed of light as I grabbed my camera. Patrice wheeled over a cart full of Valentine’s Day treats that were recently introduced at Disney Parks .

That is probably why I found myself drawn to four new shirts arriving this Spring at Disney Parks . The shirts feature outlines of Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy that are filled with words that describe their personalities. They were created by the same team that introduced the infamous Turkey Leg shirt (just wait as more great shirts are coming this year… do I smell a Dole Whip or is that a Churro?).

Wait a minute though, you might be thinking. What was that thing about Annette being Queen of Walt Disney World Resort?

In particular, I love when Disney merchandise gives a nod to the past . There is a new Dooney & Bourke collection arriving in October at Disney Parks that draws inspiration from a rather humorous side of Disney – the comic strip. I spoke with Susan Foy , a graphic artist with Disney Design Group and self-proclaimed handbag aficionado, about this new comic-inspired collection.

This festival, known as The Disney Honors , is a non-competitive experience for middle and high school choirs, concert bands and orchestras ensembles that focuses solely on education and artistic growth. I am excited to announce that The Disney Honors will be held on February 28 – March 3, 2013. It will be held again at the Walt Disney World Resort.
