Otherwise, it would be much too strong for me, lol.<br /><br />I agree with you on the weather; a happy medium would indeed be best. But man, it sure doesn't feel Christmasy with 80-degree temps and no snow.....It REALLY ticks me off, too!

Not a big eggnog drinker but rum... that's something else again lol. I hear you though, I like having snow for the holiday but it's snowy and cold here too and I'm almost over it? But yeah 80's and no snow would be an adjustment, no doubt!

I wish it would at least go down to the 50s. We rarely get temps in the 30s, but when we do, it's mostly at night, and farmers have to scramble to Maria Beharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635809880830316283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276110560172164522.post-60304464932509990312016-12-18T08:05:41.637-05:002016-12-18T08:05:41.637-05:00Eggnog is not drinkable without alcohol in it, IMH...Eggnog is not drinkable without alcohol in it, IMHO. I like hot coco, but then it's negative digits outside with snow. I don't think I could feel Christmasy if it was 80 and sunny outside. Although 30's would be nice right now.

We've been having temps in the high 70s and low to mid 80s, would you believe? Man, do I wish I could see some snow!! Lol. So definitely hot chocolate is perfect for those chilly nights.<br /><br />I LOVE eggnog, whether spiked or not!

I always try to have a little eggnog this time of year (but no alcohol for me as I don't drink the stuff), but since I'm the only one in the family who does, most of the carton ends up going to waste since I Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276110560172164522.post-29811983163889518462016-12-16T23:13:34.236-05:002016-12-16T23:13:34.236-05:00I've never really tasted eggnog before, but I ...I've never really tasted eggnog before, but I will try it one day!<br /><br />Here’s my <a href="http://rabbitearsbookblog.blogspot.com/2016/12/book-blogger-hop-12-december-16th.html" rel="nofollow">Book Blogger Hop</a>!<br /><br />Ronyell @ <a href="http://rabbitearsbookblog.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Rabbit Ears Book Blog</a> <br />Ronyell (a.k.a.
