In weather news, our seemingly endless Indian summer is over. Winter has arrived. I wore my goose down coat for this first time this season. It's time for all those winter terms: wind chill, lake effect, flurries, snow. Normal stuff.
Which brings me to hot chocolate. I made a cup of ambrosia this evening: I place a heaping tablespoon of Belgian hot chocolate mix (dark chocolate and sugar, in granules, no milk) into a mug, then poured in some boiling water (not too much), and whipped it with my little hand-held frother. It tasted sublime, but I went one further. I topped it up with a spoonful of vanilla ice cream.
Heaven in a mug.
ooh yum & you know what? it is cold here today - 11 degrees C - how silly our weather is lately but it is cold enough for one of your hot chocolates xoxo
ReplyDeletei love making stationery, too!
ReplyDeleteheaven in a mug sounds delish.
3 of my favorite things...stationary, handwritten letters, and heavenly hot cocoa! Your stationary ideas are wonderful! I have always been drawn to paper too...when in college I would go to the university bookstore and buy stationary sets and notecards. I still have the wierd "Ziggy" stationary from the mid-70's! I never used it...hmmm...wonder why? The ambrosia chocolate sounds fabulous. Have you tried Aztec Hot Cocoa? xxxooo
ReplyDeleteSuch a simple idea, cleverly thought of, and creative!! I like this idea!! Thanks for sharing it!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this stationery. It is so beautiful. You are so imaginative and creative. Tres bien idee!
ReplyDeleteYour stationery is gorgeous - I am a fanatic about paper too. Like you, I have tried to cut back, as I use it less frequently. But nothing can match the joy of handwritten notes! They'll never go out of fashion. And your hot chocolate sounds fab!
