Cooking Fail

All I wanted was some hot cocoa...

I made some last night for Jake and me just before bedtime.  I made it like I usually do from a little cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla, milk, and dash of salt.  It was just about done, but it needed a bit more cocoa and sugar.  I left the kitchen for what seemed like a minute while it finished heating up.  When I returned...

It was boiling over.  All over the stovetop.

Bummer. 

Being the graceful homemaker that I am, I yanked it off the stove, only to have the whisk I was using fly out, spilling more hot cocoa ALL OVER the place.
