Betty and her family love to head outdoors on winter weekends. Even though the air is cool, they spend afternoons ice skating at their neighbor's frozen pond or sledding in the park. When their noses are red and fingertips numb, Betty surprises everyone with homemade marshmallows and hot chocolate. This sweet snack warms her family so that they can head back out for some more fun in the snow. This weekend don't be afraid of the cold weather; just be sure to make plenty of hot cocoa and bring gourmet marshmallows. Everyone will want a second cup!Clockwise from top left: www.snappyfishvintage.etsy.com, www.nowvintage.etsy.com, www.VerseauVintage.etsy.com, www.cupcakesinjars.etsy.com
