Rain day

It doesn't rain too often in southern california. But when does I think cabin fever sets in pretty quit. This is where improvising, creativity, and some off the wall humor come in handy. After a long morning watching bad reality tv and a few cups of coffee. I yelled Out I am board. Yes I think some ADD ad set in but it happens. That and I had been trying to convince my husband to clean the kitchen. So I said lets going puddle kayaking! If you couldn't tell I was dead serious. I will say right now I plan on being the same if I ever have kids. 100% sure the neighbors think that we are off our rockers. Plus not everyone just has a kayak laying around for random puddle usage.
Returning after adrenaline rush of ducking cars from the street my husband wants waste more time by doing a blind taste test of all the orange trees on the property. Hell why not. Him and I have the same pallet and was not surprise we picked the same ones.
Those are all things to do on a raining day. Here are a few favorites of mine in the past. Making cookie from scratch. Trying a recipes you have always wanted to conquer. Have a sit down family dinner with no cell phones or outside influences. Have a tea with friends. Bed time hot coco.
As the rest of the day I planned pretty early. I had text my family that lived close by asked if we could all get together and have a family taco night... That is my raining day. Hope yours was just as eventful as you wanted. For a rainy day here is my hot coco recipe. Please enjoy and drive slower when it's wet.

HOT COCO 4 cups milk, 2 full table spoons of unsweetened coco powder, add sugar until your desired sweetness, dash of vanilla, dash of salt. Heat on stove top until powder and sugar liquid and do not boil. It will be plenty hot. Add whip cream or marshmallows.
