serving up some hot cocoa
I love contests….
(even though I rarely win one, lol)So I thought it was time to have another giveaway!!!
Just to spice things up a little and to see what kind of things you are interested in reading here on our lil’ blog, I am going to be giving away some of our (not so) famous Peery House hot cocoa!
0k..for those of you who do not live close by, I realize you probably have not ever had or even heard of our “famous” hot cocoa. Let’s just say you are missing a wonderfully rich and chocolatey experience! But, you might be able to find a really good cup of hot cocoa where you live too. If you haven’t had ours, you COULD always drive out and share a cup with us here in our little community. If road trips are your thing, of course.To enter this contest, please just leave a comment. Let me know what kind of things you would like to read here on our new blog. You can be as random as you want, just keep it family friendly please.
*The winner must be able to pick up their prize from The Peery House.
In the event you live….say…. maybe in ALASKA (now wouldn’t THAT be something! to have a reader from Alaska, ha!) we can always donate your cocoa by picking from the list of local entries.This should be fun!!
The Peery House

Love hot cocoa!! Everything you make is divine so I know this is also!
I love hot cocoa! The website is wonderful!
I haven’t had the privilege of enjoying a cup of your hot cocoa, but I never met a hot cocoa I didn’t like! It’s one of my favorite beverages in cold weather. I enjoy your blog, particularly since I have Spring Hill roots, and reading it always brings back fond memories; also, your family has been special to me for many years. Keep up the good work!
I have had the absolute pleasure of having a meal at The Perry House and oh my goodness it was absolutely wonderful and the relaxing, right at home feeling u have there!!!! I have always missed out on the hot cocoa, but wd love to try it. The night I was there I chose the iced coffee and oh my friend it wad delicio!!! U r also a true inspiration to me because of the way u keep God in ur daily work!!!! We all know when God is in the middle of smthen then its gonna be grt!!!!! Keep up the wonderful work and one more thing…….the chocolate cobbler is to die for!!!!!!!
Me, me, me! I love hot cocoa and have “heard” not experienced the wonderful recipe! As for the Peery House blog, I love seeing pictures of your creations, cakes, cookies etc. I do not bake so they all intrigue me. You are soooo talented. As the earlier poster said, tips from the Perry House kitchen would be good and having been a part of the lives of Kim and Gina keep up the history aspect. So many of the pictures are somewhat familiar to me.
I have heard alot about your hot cocoa, but I haven’t tried it yet either. I think it would be nice if you did a cookbook of some sort.
I would love some hot cocoa!
I haven’t tried your cocoa but I’m sure it’s wonderful. Would love to win a cup!
I would love to try this cocoa i have heard so much about but it would be great to share some recipes!!!!
Your hot cocoa is wonderful . I love the hint of cinnnamon and the whipped cream on top .
Okay, I will not be able to come by if I win, but maybe Mom and Dallas can swing by for a visit in my place:) Sounds wonderful…..
I haven’t had the opportunity to try your hot cocoa, but if it’s anywhere close to the other culinary treats I have had, I can’t wait to try!!
As far as comments or suggestions for the blog, maybe a recipe of the week or coupon/shopping tip of the day/week.
I would love to have some of your hot cocoa! I have not had the chance to have any! The thing I would like to read about on here is how you come up with your recipes. What makes you want to try them. Hope to win some good hot chocolate!!
Oh me some yummy hot choc!! Wonderful stuff if you have not had it! Well worth the drive!! I would love to see a blog about maybe some kitchen tips that you could share! There is not one bad thing that I have eaten of yours! Maybe you could do a tip per day! Please pick me!
I think on your blog if you did a daily scripture would be very nice. And, I would love to try your hot chocolate..but, if I win.. donate to the “Boy Scouts”!!
Believe it or not, I have not had your famous beverage. When I was there, I had hot tea, because I didn’t want to spoil my apetite for the wonderful meal that was next!
There is nothing like a good cup of hot chocolate on a cold day. I haven’t tried yours yet but can’t imagine that anything you prepared wouldn’t be great.
I think your “not so famous” hot chocolate is famous around here. I have had the privilege of having your hot chocolate. I love to read anything you blog about because it comes from the heart. If I win, i might be willing to share with some special co-workers.
Even though I live in Nashville, I have had the “not so famous” hot chocolate. IT is soooooo smooooth, rich and good. A sore throat it will sooth.
I do enjoy all the mentions above about the blog so continue those.
Posting “The Peery House” recipes , I can answer. She won’t give them out even to her cousin. LOL With that said, I totally understand because the recipes are her signature for “The Peery House”. But it doesn’t stop us from asking her.
I’m proud of you cousin and love what you have done with our Grandmommy’s place. 🙂
Love the Perry House hot cocoa. I would enjoy seeing some meal plan ideas and some of your favorite suppers. I’m always looking for more input on that subject and I know you are a fabulous cook.
I HAVE had the privilege of enjoying your “not so famous” hot chocolate and I love it!! The things I would like to see in blogs are the things you already post! Lots of pictures and to read of your activities! I am truly blessed by being one of your employees and all I can say is…keep up the good work!!! Love you girlie!!!
I have heard about your famous hot cocoa, and would love to try some. My grandson says, “Nana, will you make me some coffee?” I pull the CAN of hot chocolate mix out of the cupboard………
I really enjoy reading about the history of your family and the Peery House. I love the pictures that you post. You are so talented.
I would be sooo excited to win your hot cocoa – because I NEVER win anything!! LOL!
I enjoy reading ALL of your posts. I love trying other people’s recipes as well as sharing my own, so I think it would be great if you had a section for recipe swaps or recipe of the week…..
Also enjoy kitchen tips…..
Keep up the fantastic work – God Bless You!
Would love to try some of your hot cocoa! Everything I’ve tried that you served was delicious. I don’t suppose you’d be willing to post some of your great recipes. Of course without your special touch, it probably wouldn’t be as good!
I would love to try your hot cocoa sometime, preferably in cold weather! I agree with enjoying all the topics suggested so far and think it would be interesting when you tell about whom you are serving on a particular occasion, if you told a little about the background of the items you are using to serve them. What dishes, who’s silverware, etc. Those items are part of the wonderful history of the Peery House.
I would love the opportunity to try your hot cocoa! Hot cocoa warms a person through and through. With all the winter crud people are dealing with this year I’m sure it will make whoever wins feels better!
I love reading your blog about your family… It is not just the stories you tell. It is the true love that is expressed through telling the stories… I know when you got your grandmothers old telephone number how much that meant to you! I still remember my “Mammy’s” telephone number too. I dialed it hundreds of times as a child and as a young adult. Wish I could have one of her “drop biscuits” now. Precious memories aren’t they?
I also love to read the witness you simply, but to the point share. Your testimony spills out and shines all over you.
i have not tried your famous hot cocoa but have heard all about it!!! hate that i missed out on a cup at the Christmas Parade to help warm me up.
i enjoy reading about the history of the peery house, family traditions, and the type of special occasions / people you have served in the peery home. you have a “special” business and a very special way of serving others as well as our Lord!!!
I’ll play! If I win you can donate mine to the local fire station. 🙂 !
I haven’t been lucky enough to have had your famous hot cocoa. But would love to have some. I like it when you are getting ready to cook and you put the menu on facebook. I like reading what you are cooking and what you are doing to get ready for who you are cooking for.
Hot cocoa is one of my favorites. I drink it year around. I have never tried the Peery House cocoa but would like to sometimes…
