Soft Bamboo Wrap

It's cold and rainy here in Southern California (yes, it really does rain here, albeit rarely) and the only thing I want to do is sit wrapped in cozy warmth sipping a hot cocoa. Wrapables carries a soft 100% bamboo wrap with eyemask that is so soft you would think it was cashmere, only this set costs $39.95, is washable, antibacterial, and since bamboo is hypo-allergenic and anti-bacterial and can be grown without the use of pesticides, it is a green product! It's also a handy set to take with you on your next plane trip; it's so much nicer than anything the airline will provide (even in first class).

For the cocoa, I like making my own with a nice cocoa like the Spanish dark drinking cocoa from Zingerman's which I mix with milk (I use soy), some brown sugar, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a dash of hot cayenne if you feel adventurous. There's nothing like home made hot cocoa to warm the cockles of your soul on a gray rainy day.
