There was a lot of excited young ladies on the Mainline last Thursday when celebrity favorite Pinkberry opened it’s first Philadelphia are at the Bryn Mawr Square Shopping Center (763 East Lancaster Avenue)

 Lindsay Gordon, Carrie Schaeffer, Dagny Tepper and Joely Simon couldn’t wait to get their free yogurt from Pinkberry, which was handed out from 6Pm til 10PM (actually a little later as the people kept coming.) the world’s leading yogurt retail, and arrived 3 hrs before the store opened it’s doors.
