Ingredients

HAIKU

---------

Walking down the lane

Autumn leaves swirling 'round us

Arm in arm we stroll

------------

Brown, yellow, crimson

Mother Nature's bright palette

Coloring our earth

-------------

Fawns cross before us

Liquid eyes in wonder stare

So frozen in time

--------------

Gone swiftly from us

Tiny snapshot in our minds

One moment in time

---------------

Back at the cottage

Steaming hot choc'late awaits

The fire ablaze

----------------

Time passes by quickly

As minutes and hours do

The moment is gone

-------------------

But not so our love

Which carries us through the night

To sweet tomorrow

Directions

2 1/2 squares unsweetened chocolate

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup granulated sugar

Dash of salt

1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped

Hot milk

----------------------------------------

In saucepan, combine chocolate and water.

Cook over low heat, stirring until chocolate is melted and blended. Add sugar and salt, bring to a boil and cook stirring for 4 minutes. Remove from heat, and cool.

Fold cooled chocolate mixture into whipped cream.

Add 1 well-rounded tablespoon of chocolate mixture to each ¾ cup hot milk. Stir to blend.
