December 24 and some other days

december

I hate making hot cocoa for the kids even though they beg for it often.  I don’t know why, it isn’t very jolly of me.  It’s a mess and a pain.  The cups never come out of the dishwasher clean.  But we do live in Northern Minnesota where hot cocoa is very important.  So as a gift to my kids, I did it up big for Christmas break.

Because, really,  could my life be that much messier with a little hot chocolate?

A cup of hot cocoa with whipped cream, marshmallows and sprinkles is a nice treat on a cold day.  And since when has it been about me anyway?

Mmmmm! I love the candy cane hot cocoa. I discovered that for the first time this year. :)
