OMG we have had such a mild winter and I think we all forgot that this time of the year is the coldest. I am thanking my lucky stars my mom sent me this cute cocoa kit for my Kuerig and an awesome group of recipes to go with it. I was going to share some and then I stumbled onto this infographic and it has many of them recipes though slightly varied, she sent me.

I am taking a bit of a break, if you noticed. It is the holidays after all and for me this means huge bouts of depression and missing my family. Home maybe where the heart is and at this time of year, my heart is down in the lower -48 with my parents and kids. Geoff feels ambivalent towards this time of year, as do many. I struggle with my inner Grinch hourly. It is hard to be on Facebook and Twitter and even more so, this is the time I love to cook but we cannot right now so reading all the recipes is KILLING me, but it won’t stop me from sharing one with you.

I don’t even want to write a post. I am taking my time, force-feeding her a bit of food, which she eats when she is able to figure out by texture what it is. I think her sense of smell is gone. She stopped purring a few days ago, can barely walk because of her rear end not working properly. She is not sick, she is old as in 20-years old.
