Okay so I don't curl up with hot cocoa much but this is my favorite hot cocoa tradition.

Picture it Disneyland USA Main street. Here you are on a cold winter night right before christmas on a weekend trip to see the lights and get some magic before christmas. I love christmas, hate commercialism, need a little disney christmas time. So they have a mug each year that is for christmas that you can buy at the bakery and on main street in the carts. In these mugs is piping hot chocolate. The kind that just melts all your troubles away. You buy a mug knowing you will never use it again and you walk throught eh park with your gloves on and your disney scarf you had to buy becasue you purposly left your other one back in the room and enjoy all the christmas magic disney has to offer.

My favorite hot chocolate memory is sledding on the large hill in our back field with friends and family, then building a bon fire and having smores and hot chocolate to warm up.

Hot Chocolate is the one thing you must have after playing in the snow. When I was a kid we would always have Hot chocolate and chocolate chip cookies after the first snowman of the year was created! What a wonderful childhood!

My favorite memory is when all 5 of us kids would sleep at our grandparents in front of the fire, my grandma would make us hot chocalate and my grandpa would tell us stories.

My favorite hot cocoa memory took place 21 years ago. I was pregnant with my first son and was sitting by the Christmas tree. I just made myself a cup of hot cocoa, with marshmellows, and was listening to some Christmas music. I took my first sip and it was so good. My son thought so too. He kicked me for the first time and it was the most wonderful experience. I think he liked the taste of it too.
To this day, hot cocoa is his favorite drink of all time.

Well, I grew up mostly in southern California where snow isn't a big factor but I have always loved sipping a cup of hot chocolate in front of the Christmas tree. The key to the best atmosphere is enjoying the hot chocolate at night, with all the lights out except for those on the tree. The sparkling lights, the chocolate, the loved ones - what's better?

(Good luck with this quick contest everyone!)
