ust kind of take things as they come, but I have really been wanting to work on that. I have been wanting/trying/hoping to set some time aside for a little more "me" time.I can't jump in my car like before and spend hours taking photos. Go to the open labs and use their dark rooms. Or even get on my bike and ride for hours in the mountains. So until Lucy is older and I can take her to do these things....OR...afford a babysitter. I have found new things to look forward to.
HOT CHOCOLATE
I love hot chocolate. I mean it...I really love hot chocolate! One of the things I love to do everyday is as soon as I put Lucy down for her first nap I use my hot chocolate maker. When I was single I had seen these machines before, but never bought one. But then, I got married and was able to enjoy my Bed Bath and Beyond gift cards for their fullest and got me a Hot Cocoa maker. It has been heaven since!

It has been heaven since!Seriously, this little machine is a blessings from the heavens above! It can take any crappy brand of coco and turn it into liquid bliss! I have loved this rutine so much that I have made it a daily thing...actually maybe I have made it a twice a day thing....please don't judge me :)
So for all of you hot cholocate conesieurs out there! Go out and get one of these beauties! Have the machine mix and heat you coco for you, then use the foam button the froth it up, pour your self a mug, sit on the couch, and soak up the moment!!!
Ooooh...that sounds gooooood. I may have to get myself one of these when we come back to Canada. Those picures are mouthwatering!

That looks really good! It has to be better than the hot chocolate I make for the kids from the packet.
ReplyDeleteYummm...
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about not being able to pursue your passions. I had to put several away for a while, like reading. But now that Emma is getting older, I find little bits of time for things. :-)
I would say cool but its HOT cocoa .. have you ever had it iced? YUM
ReplyDeleteI saw one of these and I was going back and forth about getting it. I actually think I might if the hot chocolate comes out that good.
ReplyDeleteA hot chocolate maker?! Sounds heavenly!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmmmmmmmm! I love hot chocolate too! I simply must get one of those hot chocolate makers!
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know there was such a thing. We are big hot chocolate drinkers here, so I'll definitely have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so god, I had no idea there was a Hot Chocolate Maker LOL
ReplyDeleteI just buy SWISS MISS AND dump it in a mug with boiled water LOL ! How chic a hot chocolate maker would be though!
ReplyDeletePS My baby had the BUMBO too but do you know they are now on RECALL?
Those pics of the hot cocoa look so warm and cozy. Mmmmmm.
ReplyDeleteExcellent read! it really has taken the edge off my day i really like your blog!
ReplyDeletegreat job today!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, have you tried the Hot Cocoa Hershey Kisses? They're pretty good.
ReplyDeleteOh maaaan. Somehow hot chocolate just makes everything better, doesn't it? One of those small pleasures you can always make a little time for, even if you don't have time to take on some bigger things at the moment.
ReplyDeleteOh Hot chocolate..mmmmmmm.......are you a marshmallow in the hot cocoa girl or whip cream? For me it has got to be marshmallow...the mini ones.
ReplyDeleteI long for the days when I could spend hours in a dark room. I totally understand!

ReplyDeletesounds delightful! it nice to have a treat for yourself. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite things as well . . . but we misplaced our cocoa maker during our move (a year ago!) However, I recently unearthed it!! Time to get it working again!
ReplyDeleteYummmy....I enjoy a nice "special" hot chocolate after skiing or playing in the snow!
ReplyDeleteWhere. Do. I. Get. One?! I LOVE HOT COCOA!!! Even in the summer when the air conditioning is on. I'm sure you'll have TONS of cocoa up in Alaska all year round!
