A Little Early Cheer!!

Gentle Friends, as you may remember from years past I am a real fan of many Holiday Treats.  One of my favorites is Egg Nog, now I know that there are lots of folks out there that find it just disgusting, but I wait impatiently year in and year out for it to arrive in the stores....  


... this past Saturday during our weekly trek to the store we were talking to Anthony, the Dairy guy and he remembered how much I like the Nog, and said they had already started to get some in, but that they weren't putting it out for a few weeks yet.... but did I want some now???  I jumped on it like a duck on a June bug!!!  So I've hauled out the old bourbon, and nutmeg and whipped up a lovely evening drink to celebrate the oncoming Holiday season!!!!  Although this brand is not one I would normally buy, it did just fine... until Bud's Egg Nog returns to the shelves mid-November.

Take care,

  7. Our family loves egg nog and it was a family tradition to serve it
    on New Year's Eve. Also, we serve it in an ice cold glass over
    vanilla ice cream....delicious!
