CHRISTMAS SPIRIT. FINALLY.

When I went back to Mexico in March this year, my mom gave me a box of Mexican Hot Chocolate mix to bring home with me. I thought it was a waste of space because there are a million zillion trillion brands of hot chocolate mix here already and they are good. Also, it was quite hot there, and it was spring here and I really didn't feel like having any hot chocolate at the time. But I brought it anyway, because I am a nice daughter, and I also thought Husband would probably enjoy it. I am sooo glad I brought it back with me. It is true there are loads of great hot chocolate brands here but there is nothing like the familiarity of the flavours of childhood when one seeks comfort. Thanks mom!
