I just made myself a nice cup of hot chocolate. It looked so lovely, I thought I would share it with you! I used an instant pack of hot cocoa mix and steaming hot water. I topped this with mini-marshmallows and then added a small stick of peppermint.

To serve (my party of one), I used some charming dishes. Do you see the sage canisters and the small sage plate?  I bought these years ago, when Mr. White and I were having a good financial year. I think I paid one or two hundred dollars for an entire set of matching dishes, serving bowls and the canister set. Alas we only have a few scant pieces left.  I love them very much and enjoy looking at them when I prepare a little something for tea-time or do my baking at the counter (pictured above).

I spent much of the day dragging myself though ordinary chores. I am feeling worn out. But I wanted to take a little break to refresh both body and mind.

I hope your day is going well!

Blessings
Mrs. White
