Hot chocolate decorating

When it comes to winter, I like my rooms like I like my hot chocolate: Warm, cozy and in various shades of brown and cream.

Hot chocolate with cinnamon sticks:


Hot chocolate with freeze-dried marshmallows:


Steamed milk with vanilla flavoring. Not technically hot chocolate, but they're related:


And the grand finale - hot chocolate made with ghirardelli and topped with whipped cream:


While we're on the topic, would you believe that I drank hot chocolate from a mug just like this for my entire childhood and never even knew what was going on?


I think my parents' version was bears, though. I had friends whose parents had mugs from the same "collection," and I was always sure to point out the coincidence.
