Electric Storms and Eggnog

I know that you are wondering what those two have in common. Actually they have nothing. It is just my way of getting two blogs into one.

Lately we have been quite busy, but that is not why I have not updated my blog. I haven't updated it in a while because we have been having so many electric storms at night (the only time I have to write my blog) that we have had to turn the computer off and I haven't been able to use it. Tonight was the first night in almost three weeks that I haven't had to rush upstairs and turn the computer off for fear of damage. Therefore, I have written a few blogs tonight to let you know what has been going on. Please read them for exciting news about Audrey.

Is there anything better than eggnog? I love it! For the first three years we were in Honduras there was not eggnog to be found except for the alcoholic version they sell at Christmas. Of course I am not going to drink that. So we had to make our own. It is a pretty good tasting recipe, but if it gets too hot it will curdle, it uses a lot of eggs, and is pretty time consuming to make. Needless to say it was not something we got very much of. The good thing is that now there is a company called Leyde that makes it year round. It cost about $.70 for a pint. It is so good. Last Christmas when we were in the states our trailer fridge wouldn't hold much eggnog so we didn't get it but once. Today when I was in the store I just had to buy some. It is so good added to coffee. We may not have Starbucks here, but I can make a pretty mean Eggnog Latte anytime I want. :-) Having this Eggnog just seems to be getting me in the Christmas mood. I can't wait for Christmas time!!
