2Girls1Snack: Frozen Yogurt

Bwog Staff 0

(that's not the actual quotation. please don't hate us for lying ron swanson)
2girls1snack
in the words of ron swanson: 'there's only one thing i hate more than lying. and that's frozen yogurt. which is ice cream that's lying about being yogurt.'
tbh if you want real frozen yogurt at this point just buy a cup of yogurt at morton williams and let it sit outside for a couple of hours
the first 2girls1snack of the year may also be the coldest of the year - just like winter storm jonas
