Sprinkles

So what if it’s a crisp fall day out? There’s free frozen yogurt in West Chester! According to NBC10, California based Sprinkles is opening a location in West Chester, and to commemorate the occasion they’re giving away free frozen yogurt with free unlimited toppings! We’re pretty excited because we’re big  Red Mango and even bigger Pinkberry fans – neither of which have hit the Philly area, YET.

Daily Candy is pointing the way to Tide’s Loads of Hope Campaign, which is working towards helping those effected by natural disasters.  You can help by purchasing Tide with yellow caps or by purchasing one of their cute t-shirts. With products like that, helping couldn’t be easier. Daily Candy also has a write up on these interesting rose thorn earrings from Lee Hale, available at Egan Day on South Street.

We also peeped these boots from Sorel on the Nordstrom.com website – they’re cute and look like a great alternative to Uggs for seriously icy or snowy days.

Save the bees! Whales! Pandas! Whatever!

No really, one last thing. Apparently May 12 is honeybee-ice-cream awareness day or something like that:

Come in for a FREE scoop of any Bee-Built ice cream flavor at participating Häagen-Dazs® Shops between 4-8 pm. * Please call your nearest shop in advance to check that they are participating in the offer.

We called up the only Häagen-Dazs in Philly proper (at 242 South Street) to check on it, and the answer was an incredibly annoyed sounding “Yes.” It was the the kind of “Yes” that would sound completely natural followed by “Mom, God,” and preceded by that person’s mother asking if the Häagen-Dazs employee had remembered to put in her retainer, because seriously, Häagen-Dazs employee’s parents didn’t spend thousands of dollars on braces because they liked the way Häagen-Dazs employee’s teeth looked before.

But it was a “Yes” nonetheless! Free ice cream for all who don’t mind standing in line half an hour, woo! Sorry, Häagen-Dazs employees, I scooped ice cream when I was 15 and it was a crappy job then, too. You have my sympathies for the next four hours or so.

Wonkette: Save the bees, eat free ice cream
