All is well now although they were without power for 4 days following the storms and there's hundreds of trees down in the area.
This morning, while the Old Man was bustin' his lungs running up a mountain, I prepared some hot chocolate for us all to enjoy in front of the fire when he got back. Proper hot chocolate made with Beyond Dark chocolate buttons and hot milk. So decadent that only a tiny cupful was required.
These teeny tiny beautiful jade green cups were for sale in a charity shop. Because most people see a trio of cups as 'not a full set' I got them for a snip at 80p. Well, in a family of three, a trio of cups IS a full set, so win to me I think!
Right, we're off to explore a gold mine so I'll catch up with y'all later.
Please grab the badge and link up your second-hand finds.
I always buy things in threes for us too! Loving your cups and the hot chocolate.
