Chocolate

One of the fun things about fall and winter is....Hot Chocolate!

One of my favorite wedding gifts was a hot chocolate maker. I've been waiting and waiting for it to get cool enough for hot chocolate. Well, the other night I pulled it out and tried it. It was amazing!

This is a great purchase!  So, if you have the chance to get one, do!  You just pour in the chocolate mix, water, and let the machine do the rest.  It mixes and heats and then shuts off when it is ready.  Clean up is really easy too.

A Cup of Tea

When it comes to a cup of tea, I think that I would have to agree with C.S. Lewis. He said, "You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me. "

I've been drinking good, sweet, ice tea for as long as I can remember. It was always the common drink at the Smith household. There was never unsweetened tea until health reasons called for a pitcher of sweet and a pitched of unsweetened.

As I got older, I learned to enjoy a nice cup of hot tea. Since coffee doesn't taste as good as it smells, I had to find something on those early mornings in the office. A cup of hot tea was just the ticket. My favorite tea, I just have to share. It's Enligsh Breakfast Tea. It always had just enough of a kick to stop me from falling asleep at my desk. So, if you have the chance, grab a nice hot cup of the tea, and enjoy!
