How to drink cocoa...

Nah, we ain't fancy.

Get Swiss Miss. Get it in a can, it's cheaper! You're gonna put like 2.5 to 3x the amount those idiots tell you to use. Cram it in there. Add hot water. (That comes right out of the coffee maker.) Add giant honkin' thing of marshmallow fluff. Use grader and shave some baker's chocolate on it. Maybe add a sprig of spearmint. Maybe...

If it's after snow smashing, add liberal amounts of Dr. McGillucuddy Peppermint Schnapps or, if you want to get retarded, add Ice 101 to taste.

(Wait until I tell you my fancy socks trick!)

That's fancier than I prefer. We just do a pack and a half of swiss miss and add hot water. Marshmallows are optional. Then again I'm in the Deep South were snow is considered an anomaly.

The missus is a chocolate snob and makes fancy cocoa with bars of chocolate and milk.

Not gonna lie, it's pretty good. It's also a fuck of a lot of work. She uses like a double boiler and it takes like an hour. (She's crazy. That's why I'm with her!)

Jeez, first snow of the season and all this. A little cabin-fever maybe? Are you cleared for smashin'?

I already smashed snow. It was fun but not very much snow. It was maybe 5" in some places and 3-4" elsewhere. Down in the valley they didn't get much and what they got is melting and will turn into ice tonight. So, stay off the roads unless you want to have fun.

Snowbanks, drunk-bumpers, aren't up yet. They'll be up soon.

We've got snow coming all weekend, for the most part. One day will warm up to the 40s, but my elevation will keep snow probably - and there's snow scheduled after it.

With any luck, I'll have snow until next May or June.
