Winter wonderland

                              A couple of weeks ago in Zakopane

Lara's first snow

Although Lara didn’t care much for the first snow this winter and for the fact that this was her first snow ever we took her for a long winter walk on the second day of christmas. We had a wonderful time and Lara slept almost the entire time. At least we have these photos and a few more where we behave as if it was the very first time for us to see snow and this way we will remember for her :)

Christmas hot chocolate mix

Because there have been no sign of snow in Cracow and it seems it will stay this way during xmas we’re doing everything to make this special time of the year feel at least a bit…special. We haven’t bought a tree yet but everything else is in progress. We’re working on christmas menu (extra difficult this year due to our meat free diet), decorating the flat with ornaments, listening to xmas songs and drinking tons of hot chocolate. I love hot cocoa every now and then before going to bed but this time I needed something more serious, a real deal, not some dull chocolate milk. Make this mix and I promise all the cold, windy december evenings will became so much cosier and more pleasant. And it’s hard not to agree that you simply need hot chocolate in your life.

Ingredients

1 cup unsweetened cocoa

1,5 cup powdered sugar

1,5 cup powdered milk

1 tsp salt

2 tsb cornstarch

optionally 0,5 tsb cinnamon

Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or mix well with a whisk. Store in a big jar or divide between a few smaller jars and give to your best friend as a pre xmas gift.

Stay warm!

Moka has moved

Dear friends! Our blog has been moved to a new platform and we are no longer going to post here. We will be more than happy if you continue to be a part of it and visit us sometimes at cupofmoka.pl We are still perfecting our new space and working on making all the previous photos look good again (most of them lost their good quality while being transferred to the new platform). Hope to see you all there. Have a great day!!!
