Ishould pass it to my son, I understand as a budding youth it was the first means to be drinking with his friends. They drank so much eggnog and got sick. I doubt it really even had alchhol in it.But they have a Christmas memory.A rootdiggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02642330951208433671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1290862664682736968.post-59372105568930767062010-12-02T22:25:36.906-06:002010-12-02T22:25:36.906-06:00I'm an eggnog lover, though as I get older it ...I'm an eggnog lover, though as I get older it gets harder to drink more than a little at a time. I've always wanted to try to make my own some day, and this looks like a very good recipe.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1290862664682736968.post-37795112102665444192010-12-02T18:09:35.981-06:002010-12-02T18:09:35.981-06:00Cindy, It's been years since I've had eggn...Cindy, It's been years since I've had eggnog but I think I'll give your recipe a try. <br />You asked about family tradition with food...always, we have Christmas Eve at the farm (my folks place) and always, everyone brings a dish to pass. As big as our family is, you would think that there would be doubles of something, but it never happens. Mom ALWAYS bakes a Birthday Cake for Jesus, cut in the shape of the Christmas Star, of which the single candle is lit before we give thanks for the spread of goodies and a full meal, all buffet style. There is also always Mom's German Potato Salad, sometimes ham, and Mincemeat Pie if someone got their deer. The best part of the celebration, is gathering at the farm with family.<br />Of course, there is always a can of popcorn for the GrandLove that finds the Christmas Pickle on the tree, a German tradition. <br />I love this entry.<br />BlessYourHeartsDarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16642092433299872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1290862664682736968.post-53932284500373915462010-12-02T14:28:25.311-06:002010-12-02T14:28:25.311-06:00I love eggnog!
