    Chocolate Banana Pops

    July 7, 2022 /

    Inspired by Frozen Banana popsicles at Disney World Magic Kingdom at Disney World Lake Buena Vista, Florida Looking for a great way to cool off and satiate your sweet tooth? Look no further than this addictive snack that is a big departure from your normal go to’s. Prepare these frozen banana treats and be a hero in your neighborhood or party sphere. We were first introduced to this delightful treat while wondering around the Magic Kingdom at Disney World in Florida. They apply a bit more chocolate (which I am still trying to perfect their recipe). But here is our Loft Kitchen take on it! All you need is: 2…

    Weekend Exploration in your own backyard!

    June 5, 2022 /

    So often we hear people saying that “Until guests come to town, they never experience or take advantage of their own city in which they live. It is so easy to give into routine and shuffle from school/work/kids sports or regular trips to the store and hobbies, that we often neglect the benefits and events in our own radius. Always dreaming or planning to venture off somewhere that we are not can sometimes lead to not seeing and appreciating the beauty of where we are now. I have spoken to several people who live in New York, who have never been to the Statue of Liberty, The top of the…

    Panama City is not just for Spring Breakers anymore!!!

    April 8, 2022 /

    Inspired by travels to Panama City, Florida. Many years ago while taking a RV trip down from Michigan to Key West Florida for a Christmas vacation, we stopped in a small little town on the Gulf that offered so much unexpected charm and beauty that my Dad claimed right then and there that we could stay right here and not continue on down south to our destination of Key West. It was a chilly 58 degrees (which seemed like a heatwave compared to the Michigan air we had just escaped days before) and he proceeded to dive right in the beautiful cool waves. I had to admit, from that moment…

    A Visit To The Green Isle We here at Holiday Rising understand the meaning of tourist trap. There have definitely been a few things along the way that afterwards, we felt like really weren’t worth it. It happens. That being said, sometimes tourist traps can be worth it. Sometimes you can over think things, and try to “Be like the locals,” but you wind up missing some of those experiences that truly impress what the culture is, and miss out on a fun experience. There is a reason they are tourist traps in the first place, right? We always try to get a good mix of local knowledge, and tourist…

    Colin’s Grilled Specialty Pizza Inspired by Uncle George’s Lounge at the Volcano House Hotel Volcanoes National Park, Hawai’i, 1 Crater Rim Drive, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, HI There are so many wonderful amazing restaurants and beautiful sights to see on the Big Island of Hawai’i. At the top of our list collectively is Volcanoes National Park. It’s Ace’s absolute favorite national park. It’s also a family favorite because of the ability to do so much all in the same vicinity. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is on Hawaii Island (the Big Island). At its heart are the Kīlauea and Mauna Loa active volcanoes. Extending from sea level to 13,681 feet, the…

    Washington D.C. Words can’t express what an amazing time we had at this museum in D.C. Emotions ran the gamut from high to low, but every single one hitting a direct and profound button inside each of us. After talking about our experience at the end of the day in the museum cafeteria, each of us were left with different experiences and takes on the day. But all of us were moved to a point nearing tears. Of course, it is impossible to wrap up the sum of the African American/Black experience in one building in one outing, however we must say that the totality of everything inside this beautifully…

    When You Wish Upon A Star…. For years now…oh, and we mean MANY years, (over 40), we’ve been blessed with the ability to go to the fabulous magical land of Disney World in Lake Buena Vista Florida. Our family was even among the very first to ever grace the grounds in their inaugural year.  We certainly adopt all of the fascinations, childlike nuances, and excitement every time we go back.  Heck, we even moved to Orlando just so we could become Annual Pass Holders. The sheer joy of watching a child’s expression when they experience it for the first time is something that fills your heart with glee.  It is…
