You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I guess [link] isn't the Williams-Sonoma thing you want.

Dagoba is another one I love, Bev! The xocolatl is in my cupboard as a matter of fact, and it's good but I just don't want it all that often. Is that the one that has the "stir eleven times in a clockwise direction, and then eleven times counter-clockwise while thinking good thoughts" directions? Because I find myself doing that whenever I am stirring anything, now, wherever I got it.

Edited for correct name, wth brain?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No, this one: [link]

Thanks to all of you, I now must have hot chocolate.

I'm just as glad not to be overly interested in it, for myself.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Just like he named an aquatic alien species after squid.

Now I'm getting hungry....

Well, that is a good looking tin. I can see how it might be magical.

I've had the Williams-Sonoma peppermint stuff. It's awfully good.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I haven't tried the xocolatl stuff, as peppers and I are unmixy things. The stirring jingle thingy sounds fun though. As you say, it might work with anything you stir! I do want to try the chai, though.

And this is what I get for paying insufficient attention what we use is actually this, the unsweetened version. We add turbinado or regular brown sugar sometimes, or a little white sugar. But this way we control the amount.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I weren't short on milk (and don't think my stomach deserves cream right now), I'd be chugging cocoa right now. As is, I ordered some of the unsweetened Dagoba. I'd love to taste the spiced stuff, but I'm not sure enough of it to buy 8oz.

Hokay, orange Gatorade is way better than yellow.
