Now that everyone, including me, is wishing and hoping for spring to arrive, it may seem odd to have a book about rich and indulgent winter drinks as the March giveaway.

But, you know what? A cold March day is when I most appreciate a good hot chocolate! Last year, here in the Northeast, one of the biggest snow and ice storms of the year occurred in March. It’s that shock of cold weather that really makes one appreciate a good cup of hot, rich chocolate!

The giveaway selection is Hot Chocolate by Hannah Miles. This book should be a standard in all cookbook collections. There are so many great recipes to use on cold days, including some seasonal recipes for the winter holidays.  Whether you’re after a quick pick-me-up, a milky bedtime drink or a comforting cupful to warm you up from inside out, there is a recipe here to satisfy your sweet tooth.

For a chance to make this book a permanent part of your cookbook collection, just leave a comment on this post. The winner will be chosen at random from those who leave comments. Good luck!

Congratulations to Tracy, winner of the February giveaway! I know you will enjoy this wonderful first novel by Celeste Ng. (Click here to read more about it.)

Instagram users, read on! For this month’s Instagram challenge let’s share egg and/or nest photos. Since Easter is in March this year, it seems an appropriate month to share photos of these items! (Plus, I have a thing for them!) Use hashtag #pleasuregram on your photos of egg and/or nests during the month of March to share!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend.

Remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
