Yeah. Speaking of which, they JUST started selling them before Halloween. I swear, they start selling them earlier and earlier each year.

I still think the ones that come in shipments near christmas are the best.

Maybe cause it's nearer to the Chinese New Year? I know my family eats them by the truckload around this time.

It's a drink that's usually associated with the holidays for most english cultures. You can buy it from the store, or you can make it yourself. It can either be really rank-tasting and be low in calories, or really great tasting and be loaded in calories. Most people really can't find the inbetween. In layman's, eggnog is beaten eggs, sugar, vanilla, whip cream, and milk. Some people like to add Brandy or Dark Rum. Serve chilled, add some fresh-ground nutmeg, and you have festive eggnog.

I have some in my fridge right now, actually.



Has anyone visited Hawaii? I'll always remember eating Pineapple from the Dole plantations, and picking wild Guava on my hikes. The guava has 4-5 times more Vitamin C than an orange.
