the peppermint hot cocoa is....odd. it's full of "flakes" or chunks of chocolate that don't dissolve in hot water and are so heavy they all settle to the bottom immediately....so you drink a lovely cup of minty cocoa and then find a mug full of delicious sediment. it doesn't work for me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
The peppermint hot chocolate dissolved very well for me. And was yum. I might need to try another cup to be sure.
Good luck with the return of the prodigal, Laura.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
The peppermint Joe-Joes trouble me. But I should note that I am NOT a fan of mint. Once in a while I will eat a candy cane, but that's more for the tradition and the sugar rush than anything. So I fail to see the point of ruining a perfectly excellent Joe-Joe by adding mint.
Tim, however, loves them and so they're a weekly purchase during the holiday season. I try to stock up before they're gone, but I usually miss it.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Joes Joes are excellent! But I like the mixture of chocolate and mint (see York Peppermint Patties).

I would whimper piteously for someone to bring me candy cane Joe Joes, but I just remembered that I have a chocolate croissant waiting for me in one of the cabinets.
ION, wow, I am tired of being sick. I would really like to have more than a week of being healthy between bouts of the plague.

Laura, best of luck to you.
I am ridiculously tired and sore. I'm drinking some wine and going to bed. My landlord is supposed to be coming by tomorrow. I called to find out what time, and he has not responded. I hope it's not early because I'll likely still be in bed.

And again I say !!!, Barb.
Laura, I hope everything works out with your son. 18 is the age one is very likely to contract severe headupyourassitis.
Ohh, the talk reminds me that 1) KC is FINALLY getting a TJ's in 2011 (WOO!) and 2) I have Thin Mints awaiting pickup for me. Must get on the last!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The peppermint Joe-Joes trouble me.
I have not had the Joe-Joes themselves, but I am digging the ice cream. I think I must try all the flavors now. ZOMG, the Trader Joe's Premium Mint Chocolate Chip is SO GOOD. And it's not even green!
