giveaway reminder and a yummy fall chocolate!

just a fast post today, and not a picture in site! lol i wanted to remind anyone who has a desire to enter my giveaway. Today and tomorrow are the last days! Click on the link on my left side bar .


we had our book club last night. it was a blast! i love these ladies that meet together to discuss the books we read.....or don't get read which was my case this month....lol i almost didn't go because i didn't have the book read. i would have missed a really good time.

i have a fun cold weather goodie to share with you. no picture yet, so you are just going to have to "imagine" it. you just have to try it!!! it's easy sneezy.

ok, make some hot chocolate....and keep it scalding hot, if you're not going to be serving it for awhile, keep it hot in the crock pot.

when you're ready to serve it, pour it in over sized mugs and add a scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream.....

this is truly soooooo gooooood.

our dear friend who hosted our book club last night served this to us. we drank it out of antique mugs, which made it taste even better i'm sure! lol she served it up with vanilla wafers, but said short bread is also good. the combination of hot and cold is delish! i am going to make this for lbc and my grandkids, and then i will have pictures. i think it was better than a marshmallow by far, but that's good too!

another dear friend has told me how to make a button, but i haven't taken the time to sit down and get it done.... but there is still a link on my side bar for the gratitude-attitude challenge if you want to join in the challenge.

today i'm so very grateful for my daily walking partner. my mom. i love her so much and i'm so grateful she moved here. to the back of beyond to be close to me. i truly am a blessed woman!

halloween candy sticks are still coming up in a another post.......:-)
