2 Ingredient Hot Chocolate Mix


We're checking another item off of the Fall Bucket List today!
DRINK HOT CHOCOLATE
#FallBucketListMCD

I made my favorite SUPER SIMPLE hot chocolate mix, and I thought I would share it with you! It is great to make up a batch and store it in your pantry to replace the store bought stuff! You can also give it as a gift for Christmas! You could dress it up in a cute mason jar or buy plastic containers or bags to give it out. I love to give themed gifts especially when I don't know the person so well, like a teacher or coworker. You could put the hot chocolate with a cookie mix or homemade cookies or a movie night kit, or even a scarf and gloves or even a snowman building kit for a winter wonderland theme. The possibilities are endless!

This is literally it.  No real recipe even needed.


It's a 2 to 1 ratio of sugar to cocoa powder.

I used 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of cocoa powder. You get the idea.

You whisk it together and that's it. Did I mention it was easy? And if you can read my chalkboard label, you can see that you use 2tbsp of Hot Chocolate Mix for every 6 oz of warmed milk or water. I personally use water, because it is so easy to get 6 oz of water from  my Keurig. And of course, top it with marshmallows!

For those of you with finicky kids...my kids HATE HOT ANYTHING. 
Quick tip:I add 2 ice cubes to a mug and then add 4 oz from my Keurig so it's lukewarm "hot" chocolate.


Hope this makes this cold weather season a bit sweeter! (I couldn't resist!)

Friday Favorites! October 14th

Happy Friday!  We are linking up with  Erika ,  Narci  &  Andrea  for the weekly installment of Friday Favorites! This week my very top favorite is ELECTRICITY! Where I live in Virginia, was affected by Hurricane Matthew. By the time he reached us, he was downgraded to a post-tropical storm or something, but still there was a lot of damage in our area, and people are still dealing with it. We were very lucky. We had no major damage to our home. We did, however, lose power for 40 hours. Yes, I counted!  We were absolutely one of the lucky ones, as we had prepared in advance! And several years ago, we had a generator installed, so we had power to the essentials, like the refrigerator and some lights and a few outlets. Very helpful in keeping all of our devices charged!! My next favorite is celebrating this guy's birthday with his school friends a few days early! We had a video game bus come and park in front of our house. Several of Will's friends came and

Stranded! September 14: Movies

This month's Stranded Linkup hosted by Shay at Mix & Match Mama and Erika at A Little Bit of Everything is all about Movies!! I don't know about you, but this is a tough one! I love so many movies! I think these three I could watch over and over and over. I think that I have to go with my all-time favorite movie as a child for the first pick. 1st Pick Oh my gosh, you guys! I LOVED this movie SO much when I was little! Hayley Mills is my favorite! This version was the only one in existence when I was young, so I am biased and think this one is MUCH better than the Lindsay Lohan remake. 2nd Pick I mean, who doesn't love Will Ferrell and his crazy antics?! And in a holiday movie!?! We have watched this so many times during Christmastime and every other time of the year! My kids can quote many favorite lines! 3rd Pick I think this one needs to be a newer comedy that my husband and I have watched so many times. I LOVE Paul Rud

Ladies Who Link: August Edition: Back To School Prep

Hey everybody!!  Sorry for our absence on last month's linkup! I know all you dedicated readers, ok...reader (Hi Mom!) missed us terribly! Summer has been quite a bear around here. We have been traveling a lot and just existing with 3 kids and a puppy has been a long, exhausting challenge. All that said, I do love them all dearly and do my best to cherish our summer time together and making fun memories...amidst the screaming and fighting. Look for the good, right?? Now that I've gotten that out of the way... Thanks for coming by for our link up! And a special thank you to our other hosts:  Allie over at A Gal Named Al ,  Lisa at Coast to Coast ,  Tara at Mommy In A Nutshell  and  Holly over at Pink Lady !! Back to School Prep time! Obviously, I am quite excited that it is time to get THIS party started. I haven't actually had to do much back to school prep to share with you. We did do our usual Target run to get what we needed. My 8th grader needed some
