"This week, my daughter and I stayed close to home and went to Mix n Lix.\n\nThis is a quaint little frozen yogurt tucked away in a corner shopping center just off of Shea Blvd and 92nd. When we arrived, there were no other patrons in the shop, so we were afforded the opportunity to see the entire shop for what it really was...super small. To give you an idea of how little usable space there is inside, you can only use one of the doors to get in. The door on the left remains locked in order to make room for a contemporary floor lamp.\n\nDon't get me wrong...they really have tried to make the most out of the space. There is wrap-around seating along the front and side windows, as well as a nice little table for three placed up against the far wall. They also have two tables outside on the patio, which, in the event that this place is busy, could offer you some respite.\n\nThe yogurt itself was still pretty decent. Being the only two patrons in the room, we received the shop owner's full attention as we made our way towards the dispensers. He could tell that we'd never been to his establishment, and he was fully engaged to make sure that we got exactly what we wanted.\n\nThere were only 10 flavors from which to choose, so that made our decision a relatively easy one. We opted for the Thin Mint Oreo Chocolate...an excellent choice if I do say so myself. We made our way over to the toppings. There was a decent selection from which to choose, though not as robust as some of the places we've been to date...I'd say it was, at the very least, adequate. \n\nWe ended up adding 2 gummy worms, a scoop of cookie dough, a small scoop of mini Reece's Pieces, and a scoop of sprinkles. When all was said and done, we spent $5.00 for the half-full cup and all of those toppings. To top it all off, the owner was kind enough to give my daughter three frosted animal crackers (one for each member of our family) out of the kindness of his heart.\n\nHis kindness didn't go unnoticed...but, his establishment is just so small. What to do? I hate being conflicted..."^^ . "1"^^ . . . "5"^^ . . "3"^^ . "2012-10-28T00:00:00"^^ . "2"^^ .
