Pinkberry Frozen Yogurt

If you’re in Hingham today, head on over to the Derby Street Shoppes for the grand opening of Pinkberry frozen yogurt—a great summer alternative to ice cream!  It’s their very first store in Massachusetts!

I was hoping to attend since I’ve heard so many *yummy* things about their frozen yogurt but already have plans.  If you head over there, please let me know what you think!
