I cheat on TCBY

Today was the first REAL day of my 100 dishes challenge. I went to Tasty-Yo in what I consider to be the yuppy part of Charlotte. Now, I don't know all the areas of Charlotte, but this is pretty yuppy, correct?

Ahhh well, at least we're protecting the environment. My mission was simple - eat a cup of the Blueberry Acai Yogurt. Unfortunately, this flavor will be served on only Saturday and Sunday of this week! Instead I ate peach mango and it was delicious!!

I got it with granola as my topping. It was so creamy and sweet but also tangy - wonderful! I felt a pang of guilt as I enjoyed a yogurt that was NOT from TCBY, the company that gave me my first real job, but I'm sure they'd understand I'm trying to reach some goals here!

As I left Tasty-Yo and traveled to my appointment today, I stopped in at a pet supply store and met this charming fellow:
His name is Bo and he works (or sleeps - he didn't really assist me at any point) at Pawtique. He was up for a picture, so I leapt at the opportunity.
















My last stop of the day was Jim N Nick's BBQ near my old stomping grounds, Rivergate. My dish choice was the Pulled Pork BBQ Taco.
I got it with the chips and queso, as you see here. The taco itself is ingenious. BBQ, good; Slaw, good; Cilantro, good (no tasting like feet = good, for you Friends fans out there). I did NOT, however, put BBQ sauce on it like I was supposed to. I was engrossed in the book I'm reading on my Kindle and the taco was tasty enough without it.  Here is a picture of the taco solo:
Yummy, right?  All in all, I think day 1 was successful!
