Though I officially left my full-time job on Wednesday, I just couldn’t stay away from my former coworkers and met up with a group of them at The Lodge downtown for happy hour this evening.
I feel fortunate in that I left my job on a positive note and have received support and well wishes from everyone. It has been really nice and I hope to keep in touch with everyone and swing by the office every now and then. I’ll miss Foodie Friday too much to stay away!
Butter Beer Frozen Yogurt
After happy hour I had plans to meet up with my friend Katie for a hot date at Delish, a frozen yogurt shop located in Baldwin Park.
We decided to meet there because I told her about the Harry Potter-esque butter beer frozen yogurt I tried at Delish last Sunday and she was very intrigued… And rightfully so!
I filled my cup with a combination of butter beer, cake batter and strawberry frozen yogurt and topped it with Butterfinger pieces, granola, yogurt pretzels and mini marshmallows. The marshmallows were the same kind of little marshmallows found in packets of hot chocolate with mini marshmallows and I was in love!
I swear every single time I eat frozen yogurt, my love for the creamy dessert is further strengthened.
Cookie Time
The rest of this happenin’ Friday night will be spent baking cookies! I was bit by the baking bug and couldn’t say no.
See ya in the morning!

yum and yum! it’s always nice to meet new friends via work too! 🙂
I love frozen yogurt. I think it’s the toppings that I like the most. 😉
I completely agree! I def. go for all of the yummy toppings
Such a sweet day! I’d love to try that butterbeer frozen yogurt! I always think of butterbeer as a lot like caramel or butterscotch 🙂
And yogurt pretzels are just too good…
yes! I am loving the fro yo plus cake dinner 🙂
Man, I am craving frozen yogurt now. I wish we had a place that offered awesome toppings here but we don’t. When I went to Hawaii I made sure to stop at Pink Berry in the airport. Loved it!
Leaving on a good note is always reassuring 🙂
It makes such a difference to leave your job on a positive note! I left one last year and I still hang out with my old co-workers when I make it back to town.
I’m really intrigued by this butterbeer fro-yo! I was down at the Harry Potter park in January, and I LOVED the butterbeer!
Haha I had the need to bake today too! I made M&M cookies yum! Guess us Illinois girls think alike lol
I like to see a few former coworkers — it is nice when you can bond with people you work with and stay in touch after you (or them) leave the company.
I’ve been craving fro yo lately. Must go soon!
Fro yo is my favorite too! I am dying to try some in cake batter flavor! If you come to NYC, there are tons of Fro Yo trucks all around the city.
I want froyo…right now. Chocolate covered pretzel topped, too. 😉
Enjoy your evening!
The frozen yogurt looks AMAZING! I’ve noticed you usually pick more than one flavor…do you mix them together or do you keep them separate and eat them individually?
a bit of both actually! i eat the majority separately, but the last five bites or so all mixed up!
I think I’m about to ask a dumb question…what flavor is butter beer? I don’t think I’ve ever heard of it…does it have something to do with harry potter? Never read/saw it! Strange I know:)
i was thinking the same thing. What exactly does it taste like???
i would describe it like a butter pecan flavor. it’s amazing! and yes, it’s from harry potter. it was a drink they drank in the books and movies. 🙂
Haaa what a fun day! I can’t imagine what that butter beer froyo tastes like… how would you describe it?? Also, sooo random, but do you double-up on your froyo cups? I noticed that you did that when you got froyo another time… or maybe it’s just the cups from that particular place!? I know, such a weird observation 🙂
i do double up b/c it’s cold to hold! 🙂 i’m a weirdo, i know.
Do you have to pay extra for that? I know fro-yo places usually charge by weight.
You Floridians don’t know how lucky you are with all your froyo places! We have ONE self serve place and it just opened in Boston. I wish the fro to craze would get here and QUICK!
butterbeer froyo?! that sounds incredible!! 🙂
Frozen yogurt = deeeeeelicious 😀 😀
I love fro yo! Self serve is the best too because you can pile on the toppins
Oh gosh that combo of frozen yogurt looks delicious! Gimme gimme gimme mmmmm!
The frozen butter beer at Universal was yummy, so I’m sure that fro-yo would be too! It’s almost like a cream soda float flavor… and would pair perfectly with those cookies! =)
you should seriously smuggle yourself into your old office just to hit up Foodie Friday all the time! think of it as just getting more material for your blog? hehe.
really now, do you have to post all the delish pix of your fro yo because every time i leave your blog i end up not just craving some but NEEDING some!! and who can argue with the body??
kudos to the bakefest following, again, we need to invent some app that lets you take a bite out of what is posted on the screen….flashforward and i’m an obese Jaba the Hut style girl being craned out of her apartment. jk.
You had me at butter:) But beer too…I need to try this!
Yum…frozen yogurt!!
fro yo, smoothies, ice cream, gelato, soft serve–> order of preference? I’m not even going to try and choose favorites!!
The cookies, the froyo…. too delicious.
That yogurt combo looks delicious. I would totally be intrigued by that flavor of fro yo!
It’s great you can j-keep in touch with your former colleagues, they sometimes can be of great support!
And I love this cup too, the mini marshmallows yum!
So jealous of all your fro yo places! Mini-marshamallows rock!
Some of my best friends are co workers, how could they not be? We spend more time with them than almost anyone else.
Isn’t it wild the flavor combos you can justify via fro’ yo?? The other night I had banana, irish mint, euro tart, and the most BIZARRE toppings ever.
And yet… it never tastes bad!
Butter Beer frozen yogurt sounds so good!!
We must have a blogger meetup when I get back from Europe! I’m so sad I missed you at the Lodge, that would have been so neat to meet each other 🙂
Definitely let me know when you have time to get together!
Oh and I can add you to the Orlando blogger email list if you’re interested!
Butter Beer fro yo DOES sound intriguing….is it good??
I had peach frozen yogurt last night and it was so delicious. I’m missing pinkberry though. Since I live in Canada it’s nowhere near me 🙁 but that’s what I really craving last night (the peach one I had was a good substitute though)!
Butter beer fro-yo?! That’s awesome! I went to Harry Potter World at Islands of Adventure a few weeks ago and, of course, I had to buy the frozen butter beer. All I can say is, what a *MAGICAL* (and super sweet) creation!
By far the most interesting frozen yogurt flavor combo I’ve EVER heard! Very Harry Potter-esque! Thank god there were no ear-wax flavors (yes… that’s the flavor Dumbledore tried in the movie.. yes, i’m a freak)
I have been dying for froyo and this doesn’t help haha. Would love to try butter beer flavored!
I am such a Harry Potter fan and Butter Beer is the only reason why I want to go to the Harry Potter theme park! I always imagined Butter Beer and the pumpkin juice when I read the books. So lucky you got to have a fro-yo version of it!
butter beer? what is that?!
The friends I have made at my current job really are the best parts of work. My job brought me back in touch with a high school buddy and we are now much closer then we were in high school.
I love frozen yogurt. Never thought I would. However, I can’t eat it too often, a lactose issue. This place by work has a cheesecake flavor. So worth the upset tummy.
reading this just gave me a blast from the past! i grew up in orlando and i recognized one of your coworkers as a girl i went to school with, what a small world!
aw, you know katie!?
