Love this! Could definitely use a cup right now after all of the crazy snowfall that we just had!
there is something so comforting about hot cocoa!
I am a hot chocolate girl! Especially, spicy Mexican Hot Chocolate! Love those mugs and spoons! I’ve purchased some of those spoons before, they make the sweetest decorations on top of gifts!
Love those marshmallow hearts!
