"...I only drink hot chocolate with months with an R in them."
"Why?"
"What's life without whimsy."
I used to be a fan of the Big Bang Theory, and these lines from Sheldon Cooper have changed when I make hot chocolate. In the northwest, I think you could drink hot chocolate any month, but going without for a little bit, makes the first cup of chocolatey velvet in September even more cozier and eagerly anticipated.
Cheers to the last few days of hot chocolate season!
