I'm not sure what other people do when their significant other leaves home for a few hours, but here is what I did (besides research) when Steve headed to the rec tonight: I made the most delicious hot chocolate ever!
I filled a mug with 1 part heavy cream and 3 parts milk (drool), then heated that in the microwave for a minute. Then, I stirred in a package of Ghirardelli Double Chocolate hot cocoa mix. Finally, I topped off my intoxicant with a healthy pyramid of whipped cream.

| I did not touch this delectable cocoa while I was uploading the pictures to my computer. I wanted to make sure I got a good shot before I relished my precious. Do you know how incredibly difficult it was to stay away? I should get an award for my self-control. |
Did this concoction go too far? Perhaps the weak struggle with the bliss that this amount of cream and chocolate provide, but I am far from weak. Others cannot endure the delicious, but I rise to the challenge. This superlative slurpage created a stupid slobbery smile on my face and I am not going to wipe it (or the cocoa moustache) off.
