Hot Chocolate by the fire...

It has been an arduous winter week with blistering cold temperatures here in New England. Tonight I got a break from the dreariness and Kate prepared another good supper. We had chicken wrap sandwiches with salad and chips and salsa. After hanging around Kate's place a bit we decided to Coolidge Corner and have hot chocolate and a cookie at Panera for desert. We sat by the fireplace, chatted and watched the people around us. The whipped cream and chocolate sauce topping the hot chocolate was intense, as was this decadent cookie that Kate and I split. The warmth of the fire, the good company, and the spirit of our surroundings made for an ideal break from a hectic and unforgiving week.

Tomorrow thankfully is Friday.
