What's your favorite Disney "tchotchkes" ?

[georgemoe]

During Pete's mini-rant on todays PC, Kevin mentioned tchotchkes. Love that term. What's your favorite?

I'm gonna say for MK it's Dole Whip and Corn Dog nuggets.

You got some?

Well, I wouldn't consider food to be "tchotchkes". It's a great Yiddish word for "knick knacks". You know, things you'd display in your curio cabinet or on shelves and tables.

I don't think I'd want to display a Dole Whip in such a way unless it was a fake model of one. (And even so, I don't think I'd want to display that. Heh.)

Agreed the term is used out of context but I like it just the same and it can apply to "items" of edible types.

Our Mickey Mouse hands that we had Mickey sign when DD was 3! We don't display them, but that's one of my favorite things/memories from Disney.

I have had the corn dog nuggets....

I think they might hold up as a "knick knack".

They would look smashing next to a twinkie.

My daughter's answer would be plush "anything". She is a stuffed animal/character freak. I, however, always like nice key chains. I like something that I can see/use everyday. While key chains might technically not be a tchotchke, it is my favorite.

Pens.... lots and lots of pens

Antenna toppers. I'm a sucker for antenna toppers

Pens.... lots and lots of pens

This reminds me I need to look for some fine writing instruments. I'm always looking for my favorite "any old" pen for work and it always needs replacing. Not sure if there are decent/value writing instruments available at the parks but I need to investigate.

I could eat my corn dog nuggets with it as well.

I agree with Annette - antenna toppers rule!!

I start my day always with my coffee....served in one of many favorite WDW Mickey mugs

I used to collect those little metal ride cars. I don't think they make them anymore. I have Peter Pan, Haunted Mansion, Mr. Frog's Wild Ride, Mattahorn, El Rio de Tiempo, Small World.

I am so bad with magnets. I have litterally 1000s of magnets and decided years ago I don't like them in my kitchen. I wish I had a spare fridge in a seperate room to put them on. I have been known to buy doznes. My goal this trip is to only buy one, a year one, and n o more no matter how cute they are.

 

[PrincessKsMom]

And pins! Don't forget the pins! I have to have them when I'm in WDW, but other than that, they very rarely come out of my jewelry box

 

[JenEeyore]

Frames!! Always have to come home with a new frame for a fav pic from that trip!

If I could figure out how to bring home a Mickey Bar (those choc/van ice cream bars) would bring that home too!

 

[Halloweenqueen]

Plush, tons of plush. My kids sleep under a mountain of stuff!

 

[MickeyMomOfThree]

Oh, I do the frames too. I get at least the year one every trip. In fact, on our last trip I got the stomach flu on our last night. I was to do all our shopping the next morning but was still sick so couldn't go, I was not thinking straight and didn't get my frame. I am still so sad that I have a year frame from every trip but 2006. I look on E-Bay all the time, I would do anything for that frame.

For me, it's the mugs! For my kids, they'd say the spinners! I think we have about 6 now!
