Bar Night

Chocolate Milk

October 16, 2009

I was invited to a fun event that touted Chocolate Milk as being the Official Milk of Halloween. You had me at MILK. Milk has always been the official drink of our house.  From the time the kids were young we have gone through at least a gallon a day if not more.  Adam has [...]
