Snow Day!!

Snow Day!! Well we have about 4-5 inches of snow, and for here that almost shuts the city down! Camden was home from school today so we have spent the day relaxing, playing in the snow and of course drinking hot chocolate! We strolled through the neighborhood enjoying all the snow falling down around us.

Rosalee enjoyed her first time in the snow and came home and shortly afterwards fell asleep.

Rosalee all tuckered out from our walk in the snow!

So simple hot chocolate:

4 tbs sugar

4 tbs cocoa powder

3 1/2 cups whole milk

1 tsp vanilla

a dash or two of cinnamon

Whisk in your pot the milk, vanilla, sugar and cocoa powder. Stir it really good mixing it all! Turn heat on low, still whisking. Is it all mixed up yet? Let it simmer on low for about 5-7 minutes or until it is hot enough for you. Pour into your favorite mugs and sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on each! Serves 2-3 depending on size up mugs!

Note to self drinking hot cocoa while wearing 3D glasses makes it even better!

Simple and good enough to warm your toes on these snowy days!
