First up...
1. GROOVESHARK.
This is a free, online, music website that allows you to create your own playlist. I've been a heavy user of PANDORA and enjoy the variety they offer, but at times want to listen exclusively to a particular artist. Enter GROOVESHARK. Go here to check it out. ***Every now and then it freaks out and won't open, like it did today of course. But if that happens, you always have PANDORA. :-)
2. and 3. They piggy-back on the first. If it'd be possible to wear out a playlist, I'm certainly trying. LEELAND and MEREDITH ANDREWS have been playing continously thanks to my computer in the kitchen. Love their lyrics, their sound, the way they help me worship in the midst of my day.
4. Ever check out the blogs people list on their sidebar? May I direct you to one, pronto?
SIT A SPELL is the blog of Aaron and Heather Hendrick, a young couple from Texas with 4 boys, the youngest one they adopted. Last August they moved to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. I heart Heather. She says it like it is, even though she'd be the first to tell ya it ain't always pretty, she adores her hubby and sons, is passionate about the poor, the oppressed, and is putting her faith into action in the nitty gritty everyday life of one of the poorest countries on Earth. She makes me laugh and cry like no other. Must read!!!! Click here.

5. Vanilla Chai Pudding.
It couldn't be easier or tastier.
Warm 1 c. milk until steaming. Steep 2 Chai tea bags in it for 5 minutes. Add 1 c. cold milk to it and refrigerate till cool. Whisk in a box instant vanilla pudding. Chill for about 1 hour. Sprinkle with cinnamon (or go all out and use a spiced spekulatius cookie in place of a spoon).

At the moment I'm loving my husband who is shoveling once again! I also love audio books!
This winter, I've made my own hot chocolate. I've found what I love and works for me in every way.
Here's what I do:
Take a Mason Jar and mix equal parts cocoa and sugar. I especially enjoy dark chocolate cocoa from Hersheys.
That's your "base".
I heat up a cup of almond milk in the microwave or stovetop. You can use regular milk, too. OR, the kids' raw milk is absolutely the bomb! I like the almond milk b/c it has fewer cals. than other milks.
I put 2 Tblsp. of my cocoa mix to 1 cup of milk.
Delish.
I have a cup everyday. ;)
I have a cup of hot chocolate about everyday too, Bri!
Love the sound of that pudding! I love pudding in winter. Will have to get me some chai tea . . .
I've been enjoying google products. For real! I've converted to Gmail, and Google calendar and use G chat with Josh at work. Make life easier!
