Cap'n Crunch vs Fruity Pebbles

The Upper West Side, near work, has become a hotbed of confectionary madness. With a sister Magnolia Bakery right down the block, that makes 5 cupcakeries and with a newly opened PinkBerry that makes almost 10 ice cream/ yogurt joints. Great for dentists & trainers, but terrible for my borderline diabetes.

Today was my first visit for the infamous PB. The store isn't bigger than a mall Haagen Dazs kiosk and was packed with sugar crackheads like myself. I went the safe route and ordered a Green Tea smoothie. Nice, mild and uneventful although very refreshing on this 50degree day. Next time I'll venture onto a topping excursion experiencing what I've always dreamed of- cereal on ice cream.
