“Cocoa Lovers”
Some one – found me out – only so much “Love” got into my cooking – so one of the “Grandchildren” gave me a Lovely Box of chocolates and fancy spices , with a booklet of recipes, to make candy, hot chocolate drinks, cakes and soups.
Cinnamon is a “hot spice” – Today! Everyone is coming up with some new way to use it – and if you follow the “Health and Medical People” It (Cinnamon) will help bring down the numbers for the people with “high blood pressure?” I followed the instructions of mixing two (2) tablespoons of cinnamon with a half a cup of sugar and pouring that mixture into an extra shaker bottle – so now I have my cinnamon shaker bottle ready for a quick shake on my cereal and on the toast and tried some on top of a cup of hot chocolate!
Nutmeg – the fantastic spice, my Mother always had ready to use! My brothers and I were “lucky” to get homemade meals, those were the days you opened up a cookbook and used spices, and Nutmeg and Cinnamon were the top of the line – at our house!
I will be listening to hear if my “grand kids” know the new name for “love” – when they are eating recipes made with the fresh spices – I just received? “Soup” of the day – will be the – “Meal of the day!”
What to first try out for the “Sweet Tooth” maybe a “Cake” or a pan of “Fudge” – while I am checking out the recipes – guess I’ll first make a nice cup of “Hot Chocolate!”
