 Posted: 01/22/05 - 16:16 Post subject: REAL hot chocolate!
You know the kind I mean: cooked in a pot on the stove, made with milk, sugar and Hershey's cocoa. MMMMM........am I the only one that still does this? That stuff in the packet just doesn't come close. Just made some--WITH marshmallows! YUMMERS!!!!
THIS is what makes snowed in days so cool.
