Our tale begins

Alright, I'll finally write the first post here. Project Cocoa is an idea I had last winter, as I developed a staggering hot chocolate addiction. I bought hot chocolate from cafés all over Manhattan, and quickly came to realize:

All hot chocolate is not created equal.

Well okay, really I already knew that. But with as often as I was drinking hot chocolate, the differences were becoming pretty apparent, and with the discovery of both disappointing and exciting cups of hot chocolate, I started wanting a place to write things down. I decided to start a hot chocolate blog - somewhere I can tell the world (or whoever happens to Google "Hot chocolate ratings" or whatever could possibly lead them here) what I happen to think of hot chocolate.

Of course, now that I spent so long forgetting or not having time to start the blog, it's summer now. Hardly hot chocolate season. Fortunately, I'm not spending this summer in hot, muggy New York - I'm home with my family in the suburbs of Washington. Washington has never really understood the concept of summer, so it's still cloudy and a bit chilly here. As long as Washington never catches on and notices it's June, I should be fine with my hot beverages.

Well, with all this out of the way, I will conclude this absurdly long post. Let Project Cococa begin!!
