I must have a thing for warm, homemade drinks. This is my favorite time of year and I am pretty sure I have either cocoa or cider every night, while watching my evening shows. So here's another delicious warmed drink recipe for you!

I found this recipe online, added some yummy-ness of my own to it and now I am sharing it with you! It's perfect for gifts and any fall or winter holiday. You could also mix it up and try some other flavors. Experiment see what you can create! Enjoy the recipe!

2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 c. cocoa
1/4 tsp. salt

Mix all ingredients together. Add two large heaping spoonfuls to 1 cup hot water or milk. 
Top with marshmallows or whipped cream. Store in air tight container.

And lastly, to add to the wonderfulness of this time of year, I designed some FREE Halloween lunch printables! There are some jokes and some blank cards to write notes to your kids. The cards are 3x2 perfect for little lunches. I had fun creating them. I hope you can get some good use out of them in the next couple weeks. Happy Monday everyone!

Photobucket

Welcome to the first ever Make it Monday! 
I am super excited to share this recipe with you today, and hope you'll try it and love it!
The temperature in our little town is supposed to drop significantly this week. I love cooler weather with all it's layering, scarves, boots, and especially seasonal food! This apple cider is delish and definitely one you'll want to repeat. The best part?! You just throw it all in a crockpot! Enjoy!
