I Heart Menchie's

Today's favorite moments included . . .

. . . enjoying Menchie's frozen yogurt with my family. Twice. Ironically, my favorite combo on today's menu involved not yogurt but sorbet: ginger lemonade sorbet swirled with raspberry pomegranate sorbet. Mmmmm. No toppings - I take mine straight.
