Little Clouds of Heaven

What is the only redeeming part of February (other than your birthday Cindy)?? The miserable cold, yucky weather is a perfect excuse for enjoying a nice warm cup of hot cocoa. And what is the best part of hot cocoa? Why the marshmallow on top, of course.

This weekend the kids and I made some homemade marshmallows. Well I made them and they supervised. (Working with boiling sugar water is a little advanced for preschoolers, I think). But once I whipped them up the kids helped cut them into shapes (Valentine hearts of course) and were first in line to be testers. The day was blah and miserable - perfect for enjoying a nice cup of cocoa and some really good marshmallows.
