Pretty much most of the women I know are sort of obsessed with the kind of treat that comes in the perfect combination of salty and sweet. The chocolate covered pretzel or the peanut M n M are two favorites that immediately come to mind. Can anyone resist a warm mug full of hot chocolate on a cold winter day? Our winter is lasting forever it seems. So in the spirit of living in the moment, and actually having the best of both worlds, I bring you the most decadent and delicious beverage there is full of all that is what I am and makes winter seem not that bad after all.
