I think the ones that let you serve yourself different flavors have helped resurrect them. I love to fill me a cup of several flavors and weighs about 5 pounds!

We had a ...Isn't it funny how things go around? We had a ton of frozen yogurt spots up here... they all folded. Now they're springing up again, I'm sure because of the Greek Yogurt craze. And I love Greek yogurt, it's a treat by itself.<br /><br />I'm an ice cream girl, though. Like Jan, if I'm treating myself I'm doing it with ice cream from Abbott's Frozen Custard up here. That's my reward for just about ANYTHING!!! :)<br /><br />The cake: MISSY!!!! I did Beth's wedding cake like that, with the smooth icing and tiny dots, only her frosting was pink. I wanted a "Cinderella" cake because she was wearing a Cinderella type dress, so it worked beautifully. Love it and God bless the Whitleys! Now I'm thinking of Steel Magnolias while my buddy Kathryn is watching 1776 for the FIRST TIME EVER....<br /><br />Clearly her parents have neglected her!!!<br /><br />You know what else is resurging around here? Fitness centers. They were big... then waned... and now we've got a huge LA Fitness being built and another one... I forgot which franchise... but it's getting a big new building too.<br /><br />Always an education in watching how things come and go! Missy, I loved this!Ruth Logan Hernehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550734775151341968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-1336057595104156542013-07-05T14:01:21.064-04:002013-07-05T14:01:21.064-04:00I miss grits.

YUMMY.<br /><br /> The grit chips made me laugh! I had a hard enough time finding real grits to make so my kids knew what they were.<br /><br /> I love peach anything and that froyo looks amazing.<br /><br /> And the magnolias and the cake!! I'm pinning that to my Southern Pinterest board. I have one called "What I love about the South". So beautiful!!<br /><br /> Love this post, Missy!Mary Jane Hathawayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996627730074514978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-8515536512813444042013-07-05T11:40:57.237-04:002013-07-05T11:40:57.237-04:00European bread, too!

You've reminded me about my favourite chocolate bars from the UK. Fry's cream or mint or orange. Decadent dark chocolate with soft fondue flavoured filling. Sigh. Now I'll have to go hunt one down and they aren't easy to find these days. Oh -- and UK jellie tots. And flakes. And chocolate buttons....rats I knew I shouldn't have ducked back through the café doors.Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-73588956606297819502013-07-05T09:47:51.484-04:002013-07-05T09:47:51.484-04:00You have brands I've never seen before!

I doubt if they'll even try to market those in the north...<br /><br />I've never tried one of those frozen yogurt places. We have several in town, but I have friends that own an ice cream shop. Their Italian ices are fabulous, so when I want a treat, I go there :)<br /><br />Fun food discovery? My daughter's friend from Norway was visiting last week and the girls went shopping at a Scandinavian store. Mia bought my daughter a bunch of Norwegian snacks that the store carried - mmmmm! <br /><br />My favorites are called Keks. They're wafer cookies covered in chocolate. Yes, kind of like Kit Kats, but the cookie is flatter and larger. And the chocolate is...well...European.<br /><br />Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-14243955410885452142013-07-05T08:49:30.916-04:002013-07-05T08:49:30.916-04:00Kav, you're right.

I miss frozen yoghurt! There used to be a YogenFruz close by but not anymore. :-( And I find the frozen yogurt you get in the grocery store just isn't the same. :-( :-( Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.com
