Favorite Morning Pick-Me-Up

Yes, this coffee tastes just as good as it sounds. Who knew Tjmaxx carried such amazing gourmet coffee?

Homemade Hot Cocoa

On a cold and rainy day in Pittsburgh, there is nothing better than some warm hot cocoa.  I have always used the run of the mill Swiss Miss instant packs of cocoa in the past, but a few weeks ago, I was forced to improvise when I couldn't find any in the pantry.

 I combined two tablespoons of Hershey's cocoa powder and two tablespoons of sugar with warm milk and topped with marshmallows.  I will never go back to packaged cocoa again after tasting the warm, chocolaty, goodness that I created!

It tasted so good, that I was halfway finished before I could even bring myself to take a picture.
