Turn away your wrath, snow gods!

January 16th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

Last night I finally had some of that cocoa concoction with the peppermint schnapps. My heart was racing like a hummingbird’s. Note to self: schnapps are sweet. Next time, cut back on sugar in the cocoa.

Today, I find there’s a winter storm advisory for tonight. Snow from midnight to three, but then sleet and freezing rain.

Ack! Everyone knows that drinking cocoa is how you appease the snow gods. If you want snow, drink cocoa! Did the addition of demon alcohol anger them? I’m sorry, snow gods! I didn’t mean it!

All I know is that when I go to the grocery store today, I’m getting mini marshmallows so I can make traditional hot chocolate tonight. Maybe it’s not too late!

    I did not know there was *any* appeasing of the snow gods. I will break out the hot cocoa tonight, too 🙂

    Does it work from afar?

    Like, since it doesn’t snow here much, can we credit my hot cocoa this morning towards the Snow Gods in your neighborhood?

    Oh, definitely! It can make the difference between a miserable sleet and snowman-making weather. And of course, if we all drink enough cocoa, it will melt quickly from the roads and leave it just on people’s yards. Poifect!

    Absolutely! As long as your heart is thinking of snowy things. Perhaps you should hum a chorus of Winter Wonderland, just to be on the safe side.

    Well I seem to have “Let in Snow” stuck in my head, but I’m guessing that would be overkill.

    *gets out her cocoa mug*

    Does it only count half as much if it’s diet?

    Heh. Well, it didn’t hit here, so I guess it had to go somewhere. Sorry!
