Nerdie Foodie: Hot Chocolate & Happy Hour

It’s that time of year Nerdie Foodies! Winter has officially arrived and the holidays are a couple days away. What a better way to stay warm and toasty through the holidays than hot chocolate during the days (and nights) and something festive during happy hour. Let’s go!
