Happy New Year! It may be a chilly month, but you can warm yourself up with a cup of hot chocolate as you read this Monthly Minute and learn about a unique link between instant hot chocolate and UW–Madison. We also give congratulations to December FAN Mail recipients! Thank you to all of you who submitted FAN Mail last month. Consider submitting a FAN Mail; surprising a co-worker (or team) with some recognition is a great way to help them kick off the new year.
