Warm Cocoa!


In the spirit of the cold weather I think it's important to let everyone know about my favourite hot cocoa recipe!


What you'll need:
2 tablespoons of sugar
2 teaspoons of cocoa
1 dash of salt
1 cup of milk
1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Directions to make this delicious warm drink:
 1. Add sugar, cocoa and salt in a large cup
2. Heat milk in the microwave on high for 1 minute
3. Pour milk into cocoa mixture and stir
4. Stir in vanilla

Optional: whip cream! and/or marshmellows

Additional recommended step: Break out a book or a movie cuddle up and enjoy! :)

The Fault In Our Stars

I can't string enough words together to express how great this book is! I honestly think it gives the realest interpretation of what it would be like to be a person living with a life threatening disease. It's incredibly well written, guaranteed to tug on your heart strings and make you fall in love with the characters. However, if you're not of the reading type you're in luck because they've also made it into a movie! 

Check out the video for a sneak peek into the lives of two modern day, star crossed lovers. (The movie is just as great as the book!)
