There's no "A" in Yogurt. But there is one in Yogart.

Last weekend, we went to the mall - an activity that always elicits a giggle from Pie Girl because, seriously, the mall? Anyway, we were there for two reasons: to see Stardust (very good, by the way) and to try some frozen confections from a vendor she had told me about - a vendor I was skeptical even existed. The name of the place was purportedly "Humphrey Yogart," and they sold frozen yogurt (er, yogart). I couldn't believe the name. It has to be the worst pun EVER. Plus it sounds like something you'd see in Sam & Max. You know, sandwiched between a Stuckey's and some sort of mega-grocery store that advertises free mealworms with every purchase. But I assure you, it's true: Humphrey Yogart does exist (and is apparently a west-coast chain). We brought along the camera for documentation only to find that the batteries were missing. Dammit, who put them in the charger? And what sort of a silly place is that for batteries? Thankfully their concoctions are about as delicious as their punny name is awful, so I'm sure we'll be back soon. And when we return, I will try to get a photo and post it up here soon, preferably Photoshopped to include Sam & Max.
