Creator's Key Takeaways

The merchandise this year did not disappoint. cute loungefly, great mug, but there's a figment plushy with his holiday sweater, and I love it.

One of the best parts of the entire festival though, of course, the candlelight processional.

We got a layered mix of tropical and classic flavors that somehow all worked together.

This is one of the best bowls we've ever had. The flavors were packed with island freshness.
