Cocktail of the week
Egg Nog
The holidays are almost here, and you know what that means: Grandma's going
to be hanging around
the egg nog bowl again. Hey, she has good taste. Egg nog is the perfect holiday treat because it caters to the lazy man: All you have to do is buy a carton from the dairy aisle, dump some liquor in, and party like it's 2005. But since this time of year tends to bring out the domestic Stepford Wives side of a lot of us, here's a delicious recipe that you can whip up for Grandma in no time. So, in honor of this holiday
the finished product is deceptively smooth. You don't want to pass out before
season, make a toast to friends, family, good tidings-and possible food poisoning. No, egg nog is safe because the alcohol "cooks" the eggs, but be sure to use some common sense and your knowledge of food safety rules if you want to make your own batch. (Or, if you're still worried, add some extra liquor. That always seems to do the trick). Just be careful, because
the holiday party becomes super-awkward and entertaining, do you?

The wall behind me says "Larson blew me here." Who Larson is and whom she blew, I have no idea. Truthfully, I have to give props to Larson because the booth in which she chose to perform is stationed right next to the dartboards that are typically filled throughout the night. After losing in darts, I sit back down to my heavy glass schooner of Bud Light and check out the wall for more gems. Apparently, "Chief has a big penis." I did not know that and casually look around for Chief. No luck. Chief was probably just relaying the usual male "exaggeration," and I decide to stick to the beer and darts.
