Trigger Warning: Infertility

The last two years have been painful. My family and I went through some devastating experiences. I've had good faith in Jesus for most of my life, but during these moments, it can very hard to speak to anyone or be hopeful. I do know however, He has started healing the cracks in my heart and these are the verses I will refer to when things feel hard.

Even the darkness is not dark to You, and the night is as bright as the day.
Psalm 139:12

​Nothing is scary to God. One of the scariest moments I encountered was waking up from surgery in Tennessee. My gynecologist believed I had Endometriosis, but during the surgery to look for it, they found nothing. For a period of time, I really thought I was making up my pain and being delusional. I was heartbroken and scared that no answers were coming.

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
2 Corinthians 3:17

One of the biggest lessons I learned was that I deserve freedom. Freedom from my physical pain. Freedom from my guilt. Freedom from the things I missed out on. God has taught me my freedom is worth fighting for and that when I ask Him for help, He will give me rest. 

We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 
2 Corinthians 4:8 

I love the visuals of this verse. It is especially cool how it describes different stages of pain. We may be pushed to extreme circumstances, but God is not far.

I remember mornings when my eyes would sting and feel sore, because of how much I cried the night before. If you have been hurting for a long time, healing is still possible for you. You can let Jesus in, even if it's only one piece of you at a time.

Thanks for stopping by. Healing is tricky and not really that fun, but I thought I'd fill you in on what God has been teaching me.

I expected to have fun at Disney World, but I didn't expect their food to be as good as it was! Epcot, known for its eating around the world tour, had some of my favorite food out of all the parks. Let's jump into the best things I ate!

If you're a fan of blondies, you will love this butter bar! We found this yummy treat at Karamell-Kuche in Germany. It was the perfect combination of salty and sweet! After we picked our treats, we headed outside to snack.

Germany was so pretty in the evening! The buildings were crowned with terra cotta steeples and adorned with colorful painted shields. I highly suggest stopping at Karamell-Kuche, it definitely has some of the best food in Epcot!

My husband, Trey, and I love dumplings! We'd probably eat them for supper every night if we could. Disney World had some of the best dumplings I've had! Lotus Blossom Cafe in China is a great place to snag really delicious dumplings. Their soy sauce to dip them in was next level too!

Lotus Blossom Cafe was SO good. This is an awesome spot to grab dinner, their entrees looked super appetizing as well! They have a decent amount of seating area, so this could be a good spot if you're with your family. If you're not sure what to eat at Epcot, stop at Lotus Blossom Cafe!

TIP: Fan of fried dumplings? Don't miss out Mr. Kamal's stall in the Asia section of Animal Kingdom! 

This thing takes me back to the days where I'd spend hours at the pool with my sister! It was like the best day ever too when we had an extra 50 cents to get a rainbow snowcone, which meant extra flavoring. 

Kakigori is like that, but much sweeter, especially when you add sweet milk on top! I ordered the strawberry and even though I wasn't sure my first few bites, I was hooked once I got used to the taste. You can find Kakigori in Japan at the Kabukicafe! This is one of the best Epcot snacks hands down.
​

If you're looking for a BOMB breakfast, you don't even need to head to a sit down restaurant. This cheese danish from Joffrey's Coffee & Tea was one of the prettiest and most delicious things I ate on this trip!

It was super filling and most items at Joffrey's are super affordable, compared to breakfast at quick services around Epcot. Ugh, I wish I could buy these in bulk! Joffrey's has amazing coffee too, so it really is the perfect morning stop before you hit the rides.
​

Eating at Disney was so fun! So, don't eat before you go! I hope this list helps you map out unique things to eat in Epcot because there's a lot of fun stuff! I have buckets full of Disney content, so more is to come. Thanks for reading y'all!
