i heart yogurtland (& forty carrots too)
my last post brought on an intense craving for tart frozen yogurt.
a trip to bloomies for some forty carrots was in order.
i got a small plain froyo with strawberries, granola and coconut.
i love how they build up the froyo and toppings parfait style.
doesn’t it look so pretty? pretty enough to pay $7 dollars for?
ouch.
tom got a chocolate with reese’s peanut butter cups
the only downside to forty carrots is that it’s pricey. but what’s a girl to do when the craving hits? this isn’t LA and there aren’t yogurtlands around every corner 😦
yup, i mentioned yogurtland again. i’m telling you…i’m obsessed!
here’s the deal with the place…
you walk in and grab a cup
pick a flavor any flavor…
or get eight flavors. go as crazy as you want 🙂
(if the decision’s just too hard, you can also get mini sample cups…ask for like five and refill a couple times each :P)
then move on to the toppings bar
start with good intentions
and then give in to your inner cookie monster
(bottom right are two of my faves: mochi pieces and choco covered sunflower seeds)
admire your work of art and pay a ridiculously affordable 30 cents an ounce!
enjoy
and repeat
my sister is the cereal & animal cracker obsessed one 🙂
my fave toppings: strawberries, mango, walnuts, carob chips, and mochi pieces. oh, and a squirt of condensed milk…that stuff is good!
and lastly, this ridiculous concoction:
*sniff* how i miss it so 😦
This post is a yogurt-lovers dream 🙂 I have never heard of 40 Carrots but what a cute name! I love all the self-serve yogurt places…you get exactly the amount you want of everything, and I like the control 😉
oh… I love love love this place!!! like a disneyland for me! 😉
Quit torturing me with such fantastic pictures….is that 40 Carrots for real?!
WOW!!!!!! I want your fro-yo cup at the top. I never heard of that place but dayuum that’s pricey. Ugh but it looks so good. A squirt of condensed milk? That sounds awesome! I’ve never seen that. Don’t you love how all the fro-yo places have such funky decor?
Ohh and yes I think the “old” crush is a “new” crush! Gah!! I just want to hang out with him!! – this is how I KNOW I like him again.

SOFT SERVE frozen yogurt is my faaaavorite. This looks like my dream place. Oh. My. Gosh. I’m incredibly jealous.
I live near LA and have yet to go to a yogurtland! I’ll have to try it out.
