We explored Captiva Island Florida yesterday, and now we’re ready to tackle Sanibel Island! This bigger island – also just off the coast of Fort Myers – offers a TON of dining and recreational spots that’ll keep the whole family entertained from dawn until dusk.
These savory sausage bites are a perfect pairing of meaty sausage with melty cheese. The Italian flavor packed into these petite packages was inspired by San Diego’s Gaslamp district, a historic region known largely as the seaside spot where fine diners and club-goers comingle. The Italian charm in the area has recently localized quite a bit into the adjacent region known as Little Italy.
Do you read the Artemis Fowl series with your kids? Our oldest son is totally obsessed, so we’re working with Disney Book Group today to create an Artemis Fowl printable fairy book that gets the whole family in on the action!
I’ve talked about having a personal computer separate from my work computer, using kids messenger programs, and even trying voice control with TV. We’re BIG on tech around here.

I decided to take copious notes to share with fellow Disney cruisers who may feel the same way. Here are the in-the-know Disney Cruise Line tips to help you travel like a pro.
Smart home gadgets have LONG been a conversation piece around here. We’ve shared how we keep our home running with the help of a smart refrigerator, automated lights, video doorbell, and internet hub. A few readers have emailed asking for a complete list of connected smart home items we use to keep things running smoothly while we travel.
