MYO Yogurt Shop

Yesterday I drove to Cannery Row to get my favorite snack of all....frozen yogurt. I brought my lunch from home, but it was gone by 10:30am due to me skipping breakfast so I thought, "why not?" and off I went. Cannery Row is only a 10 minute drive from my office so, what the heck. MYO Yogurt shop (MYO=Make Your Own) opened not too long ago and is the only frozen yogurt shop in the whole Monterey Bay area. I think there may be one in Carmel, but that's too far to drive at lunch time. It was about 1:30pm when I got in my car and started for Cannery Row. I got an awesome parking spot with money already in the meter (so happy) and I strolled down the sidewalk, trying not to let on how excited I was that I finally was going to get a yogurt I didn't have to share with any kids. LOL I got in line and chose 1/2 Vanilla Cream and 1/2 Dutch Chocolate. They have an incredible "toppings bar" with every kind of topping imaginable. I got "my usual" almonds, chocolate chips, and white chocolate chips....and lots of them! Mmm....it was delicous! And for three bucks? What a treat! To top it off, if you're a local you get 20% off! That's right....20%. I think I'm gonna have to make a once-a-week trip to Cannery Row. I work hard. I'm worth it! I can spare three bucks a week. Shoot, that's cheaper than a coffee at Starbucks! Okay, I've talked myself into it. Next week I'll be more adventurous and try a new flavor...maybe I'll try a new topping, too. I'll keep you posted.
