Before I ward off Winter Completely (Granville Island, BC)

Spread the love

One of my fondest memories as a kid was getting hot chocolate at Blue Parrot Coffee with my family at Granville Island in Vancouver.  They put the best dollop of chocolate-y whip cream on top of their drinks and on a chilly day there is nothing more delightful than a warm drink in a warm place.

A little while ago, the guys and I indulged in some yummy drinks and some pastries from Terra Breads (I love their salted caramel apple focaccia and their grape bread) and hot chocolates with that dreamy whip cream while we watched the wind blow everything around outside.  It made me remember how delightful even a drizzly winter day in the Northwest can be.
