Well you guys beat me to it. Here I was searching for recipes and watching my computer crash as half the holiday sites have cheesy music in the background and before I get done there you've got recipes up there already. Eggnog is nice at parties, especially when you leave the rum bottle out for people to add the amount they want to the drink. If you serve it in pretty cut glass or crystal punch glasses (Martha Stewart probably does this) then you can be sure that none of your guests is ignoring the eggnog and going for the straight rum. Naturally I don't have any friends who would do that which is why I have never invested in a punchbowland matching glasses. Cough, hummm, cough cough.
