~ Snowman Soup ~

"Was told you've been real good this year
Always glad to hear it
With freezing weather drawing near
You'll need to warm the spirit
So here's a little Snowman Soup
Complete with stirring stick
Just add hot water, sip it slow
It's sure to do the trick!"

  1 package hot chocolate mix
3 Hershey Kisses
10 mini-marshmallows
1 candy cane
Place in a small ziplock bag or in a new mug.
Maybe a "snowman mug!" Makes a a nice inexpensive gift.

A little cup of cocoa, I'm sending your way,
For you to sip and enjoy, On some cold lonely day.
As you sip this cocoa, It's warmth will warm your heart.
Just like our friendship warmed mine, Right from the very start.
Hugs, Nina

Thanks to Nina for sending me this recipe and poem,
for inspiring this page, and for being a wonderful friend!

When the weather outside is frightful,
Snowman Soup can be delightful.
May it warm your spirit and your soul.
Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!
When you feel a chill or 'brrrrrrr',
Use the peppermint stick to stir.
Add hot water and sip it slow.
Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow.

Recipe for "Snowman Poop"

Place some miniature white marshmallows in a plastic bag.
Tie it up with a pretty bow and add the above poem.

 All I Need to Know about Life I Learned From a Snowman

It's okay if you're a little bottom heavy.
Hold your ground, even when the heat is on.
Wearing white is always appropriate.
Winter is the best of the four seasons.
It takes a few extra rolls to make a good midsection.
There's nothing better than a foul weather friend.
The key to life is to be a jolly, happy soul.
It's not the size of the carrot, but the placement that counts.
We're all made up of mostly water.
You know you've made it when they write a song about you.
Accessorize! Accessorize! Accessorize!
Avoid yellow snow. Don't get too much sun.
It's embarrassing when you can't look down and see your feet.
It's fun to hang out in your front yard.
Always put your best foot forward.
There's no stopping you once you're on a roll.
