Fluffy loved donuts. In fact she ate donuts just about every day. But when Fluffy got a new job that required traveling, she was no longer able to get her favorite donuts from her favorite donut shop. Despite diligent searching as she traveled, she was never able to find donuts that satisfied her craving. What to do?

THE BIG E — but perfectly whelmed. 🎡
First lesson: GET THE UNLIMITED RIDE PASS.
The ticket math does not math. Your kid is going to want to ride the dragon roller coaster 10 times. Ask me how I know.
Finn needed a little help getting on but ended up absolutely owning that Midway. He had a BLAST.
Then we ate our way around:
Hot butter-dipped ice cream cone — beautiful, good, but I’m giving stewleonards the edge. This needed SALT.
fluffysdonuts banana cream pie donut — three bites of glorious excess. Bagged the rest for home.
goldenkdog Half + half — divine.
Bucket fries + corn dog — kid essentials.
New Hampshire apple cider slushie — refreshing, not overly sweet + one of my favorites.
And then we found The Front Porch and I was SOLD. Cute little shopping area with tastefulskin , fall magic, vtteddybear , permanent jewelry, a charm bar + more. Finn happily sniffed, tested and shopped his way through it with me.
BIG E LESSONS LEARNED:
Go on a weekday.
Go EARLY.
Get the unlimited ride pass.
Park at Gate 9 — we paid $10.
Save room for a bakery box on the way out.
We left tired, happy + completely unstressed.
And Finn slept like a BABY.
That might be our biggest Big E win yet.
