My Favorite Thing

Tonight for our Enrichment activity in my ward, we celebrated our favorite things (inspired by Oprah's Favorite Things episodes). We were asked to bring our favorite thing, and then we shared and traded our items. It was really fun! I came out with a beautiful periwinkle hydrangea in a fabulous green container! I couldn't be happier with my gift.

Well, it took me a while think about what my favorite thing is. I went to get it before I went to Enrichment, but I got off work so late tonight, that the store was closed when I got there. So, I went across the street to WalMart to get the next best thing. I took a container of Stephens' Gourmet Hot Chocolate, mint chocolate truffle flavor! Mmmmm....

Originally, I wanted to share my love of my hot chocolate mini-mixer, but had to go for the hot chocolate mix instead. There is nothing better on a cold day, like today with its morning snow, then to sit back and relax with a great cup of hot chocolate. I just love it! But ever since I got my $5 mini mixer, my hot chocolate just tastes so much better! It mixes it perfect, and I've learned the trick to not having the chocolate mix residue left on the bottom of the cup either. I just love my mixer! I highly recommend purchasing one to anyone who enjoys hot chocolate. I think it even works great on smoothies, etc. Its called the Norpro Deluxe Cordless Mini Mixer and can be purchased at Spoons 'N Spice.
I know that this sounds like a sales pitch, but it kind of is even though I won't reap the benefits of your purchase unless you invite me over for hot chocolate next winter. Anyway, I just have to share it because it is just that great!

It comes with the four different heads. I've only used the two metals ones, but together I get a creamy, frothy hot chocolate to die for! You'll definitely have to try mine if you're too scared to spend the $5 to get your own. But warning, you may become addicted... :)
