Yesterday I had to go downtown so I met up with Alden and Jessica to celebrate Potbelly Wednesday on a Tuesday. Jess made a comment when we walked into Potbelly that inside it “smells like FeedBurner.” I couldn’t agree more. We went to Potbelly every week when I worked at FeedBurner and the smell and memory will be tied together for a very long time.

After Alden and Jessica went back to work (ha ha) I went to try out Berry Chill, which is our version of Pinkberry. I visited Pinkberry once while visiting New York back in November and really liked it. I couldn’t remember exactly where Berry Chill was so I just used Google SMS to figure it out.
Berry Chill is basically the same as Pinkberry. The inside is set up the same. You order on the right, slide to the left past the toppings, pay and pick up your order on the left. There are very few tables inside and a couple outside. I accidentally got the pistachio yogurt, which is the only one with fat in it. For toppings I got raspberries, almonds and mini chocolate chips. I didn’t taste the tanginess that I remember in the Pinkberry yogurt, but it may have been because I got a flavored yogurt and not the original. I’ll have to go back! Too bad it’s way down on State & Ontario.

One thing I liked about Berry Chill is that they used plastic, reusable dishes and spoons. Nicer to eat with and better for the environment. Also, the spoon changed color when it got cold.
Dallas and I were out this weekend at 
. There are also a ton of other things you can do like find movies or get the weather report or find out airline information, but I mostly just use it for finding businesses.
