I ran my hose!!!!!
Use worn out pantyhose to tie up tender vines and creepers - cut the legs off and cut in half at the length - into 2 pieces. There is enough stretch that they will not break or gird the stems.

Cut the foot from hose and use it to collect all the assorted slivers of soap that accumulate, when the tube is filled to just under the heel, tie it off. Use for camping toiletry and for hand scrubbing after gardening.

Chocolat Chaud
four 1 cup servings About 10 minutes total

Kitchen Witch Freedom!1/2 pound top quality semi-sweet chocolate, like Callebaut, or semisweet chips
4 cups whole milk

Preparation:
If using bar chocolate - finely chop before adding to double boiler.
Place chocolate in the top of double boiler, or in a larger metal/glass bowl, set over a pan of hot water.
Be sure the water does not touch the bottom of top boiler or bowl.Bring water to a slow boil. Alternatly, you can cook this is a very heavy saucepan over low flame.

Add 2 cups of milk and stir with a small whisk or fork until chocolate is completely melted.

Raise heat to medium for saucepan, High for the double boiler, and add the rest of the milk. Bring your brew to a slow simmer. Do not allow it to boil at any time.

Serve plain in mugs or latte cups. If you prefer, a dust of cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream is gilding this lily.
