We’re expecting snow in a couple of days; perhaps the first big snow of the winter season. That means  a few things must be readied — hot chocolate mix must be made, coats, gloves, and scarves must be gathered, and the fireplace must be prepared for a warm fire. 

Even at 16, Ben loves playing in the snow, and since he was a little boy, these are the things I’ve had ready for big snow days. In the past, I would have run to the grocery store for a box of those little packets of hot chocolate mix. You know the ones with the ingredient list that begins with corn syrup and ends with ingredients I can’t pronounce. With our attempts to improve our health came a new way to make hot chocolate. And it really is easier and quicker to make than a run to the grocery store.
