Memories

One of my favorite places to go hang out and eat is at Jandy's Frozen Yogurt Shop in Calhoun, Ga. With frozen yogurt being one of my favorite desserts, Jandy's is a perfect place for me to go! The environment is very chill and the shop is so much fun! From the karaoke to the decorative wall and floor designs, there is no way possible to be bored or unhappy there. I remember the first time I ever took my baby niece, Reagan, to Jandy’s. This “eye cream” (ice cream), as she likes to call it, is every childs dream, and boy was she in Heaven! Of course, she went straight for the chocolate flavored yogurt. (It’s her favorite every time we go there.) When it came time to pick out her toppings, Reagan’s eyes lit up and the biggest and most beautiful smile shot across her cute little face! (When she smiles, she looks so much like my brother, who passed away in February. It brings back so many good memories.) Any one would be able to tell that she wanted every single topping presented. She took her time looking back and forth between the strawberries, captain crunch cereal, chocolate and vanilla syrup, crunched up fruity pebbles and graham crackers, chocolate chips, and all of the other toppings. Finally, after minutes of contemplating, giggling, and pointing out the “pretty colors”, Rea-Rea settled for the topping that stood out the most: sprinkles. That particular visit, I enjoyed red velvet yogurt with cheesecake bites as a topping. (My second favorite, next to coconut yogurt with fruity pebbles.)

                After I paid for our yogurt, we went and sat down at a table (the chairs spin in circles, so naturally we both loved that) and enjoyed our delicious dessert. About halfway through, Reagan spilled her yogurt all over her dress! She simply looked down at the mess, got wide-eyed, said “Oh no!”, and licked the yogurt off of her fingers! I did all that I could to not burst out in laughter. I don’t think she minded the mess; she was a little bit preoccupied with Dora the Explorer on the television behind me.

                She’s definitely my little bundle of joy and that was one of my favorite times ever going to my favorite place eating my favorite dessert.
