Solving Winter Blues

Winter always has my emotions in a jumble. There are so many good things about winter time, but I'm sure there are just as equally enough bad things to say about winter. Some people can say without any doubt that they either love it or hate it. But for me, I'm stuck in the middle.

PROS:
Snow makes everything look better
Snowmen
Ice-Skating
Snow Angles
Snuggling up for a good movie

(my sister-in-law's car, the week before Christmas)

CONS:
Slushy and icy roads
It's so cold
I can't or at least I don't want to go running outside
It takes longer to get to work
Praying that you wont get stuck every time you stop at a red light
Cleaning off the pile of snow on your car every morning.

Well, you can see my problem.

So I came up with a solution, so that no matter how you look at it, it makes everything better. A nice steaming cup of Hot Cocoa. That's my answer. We got a Cocomotion Hot Chocolate Maker for Christmas, and it is one of the best inventions out there. It also comes with a book of fun recipes. A must have for any home. I highly recommend it.

So on days that you are feeling a little down, a little blue, a little weary, grab yourself a cup of your favorite hot chocolate, snuggle under a cozy blanket, and put on your favorite movie. It will make everything around you seem just a little bit better.
