Going, Going...GONE!


Back in 2008-2009, M and I use to live down the street from Sun Liquor Lounge, and every year they would make eggnog from scratch for 24 and 25 of December.  It is one of the best things ever.  In 2012 the Seattle Times posted a similar recipe for aged eggnog and since I was a couple months pregnant I filed it away to be made later.  Well later was this past winter.  AND IT WAS GOOD!

Now I know what you are thinking right now...What does this have to do with you moving?  Well after a lengthy discussion with my brother about making and aging eggnog, M and I kept some to be consumed in December 2014.   Because we can't bring it with so why not try it now.  It was even better than back in December.  It was smooth and creamy; and if you didn't know better you'd thought you were drinking a non alcoholic beverage.

The 7 month aged eggnog was one of many things that is no longer with us anymore.  After tomorrow for the most part everything that we aren't taking to Sweden personally or shipping will be out of our house.  And what will be left at our house will be packed into boxes to meet us on the other side.

In some way it has been quite liberating to watch our stuff go, in other cases it feels odd and sad to finally be rid of it.

  1. With the comment that it didn't seem you were drinking an alcoholic beverage, you've now convinced me to try it.
