When I went to Whole Foods this morning I got an extra food bucket for lunch. This is a variety of salads – the highlights being tempeh and potato salad. Hit.the.spot.
Later I had half a watermelon and a Balance bar.
Then, I went to a Yogurtland date with Pam and Janae. This is was THE BEST. I have been looking forward to this all day week! Seriously.
A table full of Yogurtland. You’ll see that my cup is the most full. I’d like to think of the yogurt cup as half all full
Since Yogurtland is within walking distance to my house I try to be conservative with my visits and not get too crazy. NOT this time. I filled it up and devoured it
Tons of fro-yo, chocolate-y toppings and granola. I am not conservative with this visit
But it was a bittersweet meet up because Janae is leaving to go back home to Utah tomorrow morning She was just visiting for the summer with her in-laws.
A surprise guest appeared when Ben showed up to say, “Hi”. He quickly left for pizza though.
I couldn’t decide what to have for dinner so I’m chopping on popcorn with nutritional yeast while watching a really good documentary.
And I want to announce that this was the FIRST bottle of wine I opened by myself!!! I’m proud.
Question: Does opening up your first bottle of wine mean you have to drink the whole thing by yourself?!?!
Rachel says
I think the point is that if you open it yourself, you GET to drink the whole thing yourself. Own that wine!
janetha @ meals & moves says
You should have come to Utah with her 🙂
Paige @ Healthy Hits the Spot says
Yogurtland has the best prices and the nest taste! I’m loyal to YL too! Can’t get enough : )
Alaina says
Of course you can drink it yourself. How else are you going to reward yourself? 😉
Rosa - Fitness, Food, Fulfilled says
Yogurtland is the best! I totally love the Nutter Butter flavor with tons of chocolatey toppings. I could eat it every day. I see sprinkles!
Krissy @ Shiawase Life says
Do you know how long Yogurtland is going to have those Sanrio cups and spoons? I love them so much!!!!! Alas, we live in a place with no Yogurtland… but I am visiting SoCal in less than three weeks!!!!
runeatrepeat says
I’m not sure, but they have all different Sanrio spoons too! So cute.
Ida says
Those yogurtland cups are adorable. I can open a bottle of wine, but champagne freaks me out!
Allison says
I’m always totes jealous of your fabulous Yogurtland creations- they need to make their way out to the east coast ASAP!
Amber K says
I wish I could enjoy wine. Tastes like bitter grape juice to me. I’ve tried various reds and whites and all I can taste is “ewww sour!”
I wish yogurt places had smaller cups. They are just too wide! I know it’s so that you get more because you don’t think you’re getting much since they are so short. But I want a tall and skinny cup dang it! Then I get to feel like I’m eating a lot without feeling jipped. Just too darn expensive it is! But sooo delicious.
runeatrepeat says
You’re not trying the right kinds. I totally only like sweet whites and have searched them out 🙂
Amber K says
I’ll definitely keep trying, but so far I just haven’t had anything that wasn’t bitter or sour. Someone will tell me “oh you’ll actually like this, it’s sweet.” But then I try it and the tang just hits me. I think people are lying to me just to see my face… 😉
Ali says
I hope you drank the bottle girl!
Nicole @ Giraffelegs says
still can’t open a bottle of wine by myself…it’s one terrifying thought.
Pam says
So happy that you were able to join us! 🙂
Looking forward to a double date soon! 🙂
Have a happy Sunday!!
runeatrepeat says
Me too!
Jane @ Jane's Addictions says
Was it a screw top bottle? 😉
Jenn says
Yes, you have to drink it 🙂 It’s in the wine rule book.
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen says
I think it does! Maybe it’s just me, but opening a bottle of wine is incredibly satisfying 🙂
Sarah @ Food and Love Diaries says
Haha opening your own bottle of wine means you get to drink as much (or little) as you want… I’m always a fan of “more is better” 😉
Anna @ Blissful Whimsy says
We’re getting a whole foods soon and after seeing all tge fantastic food you get there..i can’t wait!
rumfunandsun says
Yes, absolutely! It is your bottle of wine and is not to be shared with others! It is like some kind of mystical Lord of the Rings crap or legal type thing where the first time opener of the wine holds all rights within, to forth and not to be given away lightly! 😉 Wow I wish that sounded better!
You deserve as much froyo and vino as you want after doing 19 miles girl!
janae @hungryrunnergirl.com says
SO SO GLAD WE GOT TO PLAY!!! Um, the all full comment made me laugh! So good to see Ben again for 5 seconds:) PS next trip here we are going to Whole Foods together!
Amelia says
I always add one of those pink and white frosted animal cookies at yogurt land too, such a trip down memory lane, and so good though I hate to admit it!
Amanda says
Yup, you have to drink it. Go to town my friend!
We live super close to a Yogurtland too. We usually resist but on the weekends all bets are off! I love the caramel almond one.
Karla says
My rule is, once the bottle is open, it has to be consumed that same day… regardless of how many people are around to consume it. Just saying.
Lisa @ Sunny Seed Stories says
You know, I actually considered bringing my favorite type of granola with me to put on my fro yo tonight. But I didn’t. Good thing there were brownies, cookie dough bites, bananas, sprinkles, Reeses, Heath, and Oreo pieces to fill in. 😉
Brittany @ Itty Bits of Balance says
Congrats on opening the wine all by yourself– it took me WAYY too long to learn :X
Sara says
I know you’re a Yogurtland devotee, but have you tried Menchie’s? I moved to the east coast from L.A. in December and miss Menchie’s more than the weather!
runeatrepeat says
I think I tried Menchie’s when I visited FL in Dec. But, I love Yogurtland. I’m loyal 😉
Sara says
I understand – it’s the same for me, but the opposite – tried Yogurtland once, but am loyal to my Menchie’s! 🙂
