I drove from Kingston to the little town of Renfrew, Ontario to see my friend Erin today. Erin’s a top-notch virtual assistant that I met last year while helping one of her clients at a business event. We spent the afternoon together and had a ton of fun. Isn’t it fun getting to know someone?

Anyway, back to the marshmallows. At lunch we were discussing what each of us likes to drink. I don’t drink coffee. Erin does. I get my caffiene from pop (which isn’t good I know). I also don’t drink hot water. I don’t like hot water, don’t see the point. The only thing I like is hot chocolate when it’s done properly and not just coloured water.

I lamented that a lot of the instant-powder-based HC has these stupid dehydrated marshallows (it’s like that dehydrated astronaut food). They don’t plumb and they don’t improve the fact that you’re drinking coloured water.

Anyway, Erin was kind enough to make a me a nice hot mug o’HC complete with REAL mini-marshmallows. It was awesome, better then the cup I got at Starbucks yesterday (I mean that!).

Fight for real drinks! If you can’t find it, drink COLD water!
