Our Canadian winters are long and cold. A favorite treat during that time is our homemade hot chocolet. Nothing taste better after coming in from shoveling the driveway sledding with the kids.
I’ve found this a much taster and cheaper alternative then buying little cans at the store.
This also makes a wonderful gift! Fill a quart canning jar with the mix. Add some pretty ribbon around the top and you have a quick and easy gift.
Ingredients
- 5 cups powdered milk
- 1 cup non dairy creamer
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup coco powder
Instructions
- Combine in a bowl and mix all together.
- Place 3 TBS in a mug, top with boiling water and enjoy!

Family traditions are a special way to build closeness. We all have meaningful times we look forward to each year. As Christmas gets closer our family looks forward to our yearly light drive. We pick a evening when the weather is nice, make lots of hot chocolate and pile into the van. Off we go to town to slowly drive around and look at the beautiful light displays. The children especially look forward to this every year.
What are your favorite Christmas traditions? Please share about them on your blog and include a link below. Do you have more handcrafted gifts, please share links for thoughts as well!

As the nicer weather is back many more people are on the roads. Lots of city drivers rushing to and from the cottage. Slow down, enjoy the trip.
