"It's the Holidays" Egg Nog




It would not be the holidays without a little Christmas Vacation and Egg Nog!

So, bring on the red and green and a little EGG NOG!

This recipe has been around in my family forever. It calls for a lot of bowls to make it but it is well worth the clean up! The recipe is all tattered and has egg yolk, cream and bourbon stains on it. It is tried and true and truly delicious. It will make it's presence on December 25, 2010 in a beautiful family Fostoria bowl and will be enjoyed by all!
