What could be better on winter night than ice cold deliciousness in the form of self-serve frozen yogurt?
Verry Berry is delicious – if you live in Richmond you must check this place out. So many flavors and toppings, so little time.
My bowl filled with chocolate, coconut, and strawberry topped with strawberries and roasted almonds. So yummy!!
Since my cousin and I are both obsessed with this place we decided to meet up to enjoy a sweet snack while catching up. Twas a fun little get together for a Thursday eve.
Do you eat ice cream when it’s cold out? Obviously, you know my answer to this one.

After the basketball game on Saturday I was a tiny bit sad- we were competing for the number one spot in the CAA but lost! It didn’t last long because I was instantly cheered when Isaac suggested that we grab some fro yo at a new place across from the stadium – Very Berry! It’s a self-serve yogurt shop with a variety of flavors and toppings to choose from. I ended up gettinga mixture of the espresso, chocolate, and peanut butter flavors with kiwi, strawberries, blueberries and a cherry for toppings.
Frozen yogurt sounded really good at the time but it was cold outside and we had quite a ways to walk until we got home. I ate about 1/2 of my yogurt on the walk and decided to stop because it was making me extra cold. It was around dinner time when we got the yogurt so even after having dessert I was still hungry for something more dinnerish. I ended up making a quick salad to eat while I waited for some b-nut quash fries to bake up.
I also had 2 glasses of pinot grigio at home and an Amstel light at a bar. We came home and called it a night. Sunday I woke up feeling fine, ate some banana oatmeal with one of new purchases from Whole Foods- Peanut Butter Co. Cinnamon Raisin Swirl. They were giving out samples of this PB on Wasa crackers, along with a coupon. I had seen the Cinnamon Raisin Swirl before and wanted to buy it, but always said I would wait for it to go on sale because it’s pricey. Well after having one three samples of it, I had to buy it- plus they were giving away $1.00 off coupons. I couldn’t resist.
I went to the gym for an 11:00 class, but it packed – I guess people are still sticking to their New Year Resolutions- so I deicded just to do some cardio and a few stregth trainings exercises- my abs were killing me from an awesome abs class the day before! I came home famished. I whipped up some hummus in the Vita- Mix (love this machine) to make a hummus wrap with lettuce, brocolli, and red peppers. I had a blood orange (oranges are tasting so good this time of year) and grapes on the side.
Isaac and I went to go see Slumdog Millionaire. I definietly recommend going to see it- Isaac and I both really enjoyed it!
Back to work this morning and I actually made myself get up and go the gym before work on a MONDAY.. yippee). We’re heading to the vet tonight right after work for Olive’s shots. Poor baby!
