A treat for cold afternoons. If life were perfect, we would have more time to drink hot chocolate with our family and friends. One day, during a long and busy spell of hard work, I decided to arrive home early, bake buns and make hot chocolate for my children as a surprise. It was an especially nasty day outside: snowing, cold and windy. I got home, made everything ready, lit the candles and sat down, and waited … and waited. Nobody came home that afternoon. They were all busy with their lives on the very day I had decided to do something different with mine. The buns and cocoa were reheated later that night and still tasted wonderful.
