It’s definitely the most wonderful time of the year!
This is the BEST cup of hot chocolate I have ever had and I’m not sure if it’s because it’s the first of the season or because of the way I made it this morning!♥️
I read a post the other day that talked about glorifying your life and I feel like that’s something I used to do that I’ve strayed away from in the last few months. And I don’t know about you but the seasonal blues hit me hard when the sun starts setting at 4pm🤦🏽♀️ So I knew I needed to get back into living for every. single. moment if I was going to life my mood.
I woke up ready to take on the day, even though we’re going on day 3 of no sunshine here in Louisville (please sweet baby Jesus.. let there be light!!!). I thrive off of sunshine and all the good vitamins. BUT instead of dwelling on the fact that I was going to have to work in the dark today, I decided to jump out of bed, do my hair.. which I NEVER do.. helllloooo work from home life😅.. and get ready.
I threw together a hot chcolate station at like 1am last night and I was excited to show it off to my friends! I was so proud of the creative juices that were flowing so late and that I finally had a corner in my kitchen that screamed MERRY!
And of course, after I was finished showing it off, I was craving a creamy glass of hot chocolate!
That first sip WARMED my soul, and although I had already set the positive tone for my day, it affirmed that today was going to ROCK!
Here’s are the three steps I took that I think made this cup the best cup I’ve ever had...
1.) I added a little extra to a typical cup of hot chocolate. Two BIG marshmallows and a peppermint spoon were exactly what my “glorify your life” motto needed.
2.) I chose my FAVORITE mug. Even though there is no snow on the ground. Everything taste better when it’s coming out of your favorite mug!
3.) I said a prayer.
I prayed for peace over the things I have no control over and asked for grace because I need to know that my (kinda bad) attitude lately deserves forgiveness. I prayed that He would remind me that I am worthy of all good things just because I am the daughter of The King who rules the world. I am not worthy because of my martial status or job title, but because I am me, and that is enough. And I prayed that the cup of hot chocolate I was about to demolish would be the best I’ve ever had.
And it was.
