Our Mum had a special pot she would use only when she made her famous hot chocolate. In winter after school we would get home, change out of our uniforms and into some flannelette pyjamas and cross our fingers that Mum felt sorry enough for us to make us this decadent elixir. There is a certain romance to making hot drinks on the stove, mixing and watching the liquid start to become hot before pouring it into drinking mugs.
