My childhood was reminiscent of many things, but one main obsession that still gets my heart beat up and the adrenaline pumping is Hello Kitty. That’s right, the cute little kitty with a red bow and no mouth is something that this 21-year-old will scream in a high pitched voice over. 

So this summer, when I was just trying out Yogurtland for the first time, I saw a decal on the window of the door. It was a Hello Kitty shaped head with words in it saying “Coming July 21!” and my friends and I wondered, what’s coming? Will a person dressed in a Hello Kitty costume be sitting here to serve fro-yo in the near future? 

We eagerly awaited that day to find out what the Hello Kitty window decal meant. It turns out, Yogurtland was doing a Hello Kitty theme for a limited time featuring cups and spoons that have Hello Kitty and friends on it. There were four spoons to be collected, Hello Kitty, Chococat, My Melody, and Kerroppi and I had to have them all! 

I’m just one Kerroppi spoon away from completeing my set! If any of you collegiettes(TM) love the Hello Kitty characters, you’ll want to make a trip out to Yogurtland before this limited time offer ends!
