I just spent the last two days polishing off an entire package of semi-sweet chocolate chips so at the moment, I’m not interested. But thanks for asking! 😃 ---

I don’t like marshmallows in mine, you can have 'em. I’ll just have a shot of Bailey’s, or Peppermint Schnapps. MMMM! ---

I’ve got Mickey Mouse Chocolate/Peanut Butter Hot Cocoa standing by. With chocolate syrup as well, in case I need something to sweeten the pot. I’ll take it outside and put it on the sidewalk to heat it up… ---

When I was about 10 years old I went to a Cubs camp for a week. One night we were given hot chocolate while sitting around a campfire. I took a sip. It was _SO_ hot that it burned my tongue and the top of my mouth. I’ll never forget the feeling. Now, every time I have a hot chocolate I get the exact same feeling in my mouth upon having the first sip. ---

Ah yes. The joys of super heated liquids. I’m not sure that the hideous sensation of having blisters form on the roof of your mouth is necessarily one that I would call pleasant. ---

My brother made some french-style chocolate yesterday. Half and half and cream and chopped dark chocolate. Oh my, was it ever sinfully good.
