Wickedly Hot

One of my favorite things to do when chilly weather sets in is to grab a cup of hot chocolate from Starbucks and walk around. As you can imagine, my standards for chilly have had to change drastically since I moved to Miami or I would never get to enjoy this wintertime ritual. For the past few years, I have been dragging my husband to the Falls (an open courtyard mall). We hit Starbucks and walk around. This year, I am especially excited about this ritual because there are 2 great locations on the beach for it. First (and the closest) is Ocean Drive. There are even Starbucks near both ends of the street. This place is perfect for the ritual. Besides the ocean breezes, there are few places in the US where people watching is better. The second place is Lincoln Road. With all the amazing shops, this one will be great for the Christmas shopping atmosphere.

While I was in Bath & Body Works last weekend, I went to their little Christmas display and discovered their new scent that has now become my favorite. It is called Wickedly Hot Chocolate. I bought the bubble bath/body wash and the lotiony glistener. Now, every time I use it I hope that the temperature will drop to at least the low 70s. That will be my new standard of chilly, so we can experience this ritual several times this year.
