New website AND amazing chocolate milk!

1. OH EM GEE.  I just made the best chocolate milk of all time.  Use one part cold evaporated milk (I used Pet Milk) and one part cold water.  Mix up.  Add chocolate syrup.  Stir.  Drink.  FLAIL BECAUSE IT TASTES LIKE MELTED CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM!!!!  It’s fantastic!  Evaporated milk is double-rich and the flavor is yummy!

2.  My new website is live.  It’s called The Homefront Kitchen.  Check it out HERE to see what it’s all about. The first World War II-era recipe (which I cooked last weekend) will be posted soon!
