Hi Sara, This is an orchard fruit wine compliments of my friend Tommy. He uses five kinds of apples: yellow & red delish, northern spy, ida red & stamen winsap. It's fruity, more tart than overly sweet. Great cold, but even better when you warm it up and throw in some pumpkin pie spices & cinny stix and the common mulling spices. I like it plain, but you can top it off with a dollop of ice cream. Tried a few times to do my own (with grapes to start), but just can't get good at wine making. The last time was more like poisonous, bubbly, fermented liquid and flying corks of death. Sara said:

mmmm, what's Tommy Appleseed wine? How do you make it?

I just like the nog, without the eggs.
This past weekend I made a nice toddy with some homemade Tommy Appleseed wine. YUM YUM

Although it looks as if the tree is sodomizing the Octopus! (owch!)

BTW Nog was also the name of a character on Star Trek DS9.

LMAO swt, that is the bestest octopus tree topper I ever saw! Love the yarn holding it in place. Reminds me of the rope tethers in the Macy's day parade. Snoopy's out, octopus is in!

I like the egg nog recipe I got from Futurama- Bourbon and Ice cubes.

I'll just answer this one: <<20. Angel on the tree top or a star?>> Neither. I use a plastic octopus! Our tree also has a Christmas rat, a Christmas Satan, a Christmas Elvis, a Christmas gorilla and a few ornaments I bought in a dollar bin featuring the faces of Jimi Hendrix, Alice Cooper and Hank Williams Jr.

Here is some basic Info on the "History of Eggnog"; http://www.indepthinfo.com/eggnog/history.shtml and http://whatscookingamerica.net/Eggnog.htm and also; http://www.egg-nog.info/Egg_Nog_History.html and finally; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggnog It is of European origin and some say it is from the English Upper Classes of the 1700 (Bloody Toffs!) I dunno. It is supposed to contain Booze (which I no longer drink) Milk, Sugar and Eggs plus spices. I suppose it is any excuse to get bombed over the Holidaze. Joey, Drop me a PM and I'll send ya my mailing addy! BTW Nog is such a silly word!

Never heard that joke. It made me giggle. So did Joey's non-sugar coated approach to question answering.

Thanks Joseph! Your Reply has given me much to think about. I hope you have a good Holiday Season.

OH I and I alway though the English invented Egg Nog? Maybe I am mistaken.

As the Sonics said, "I don't believe in Christmas!"

Will do! Hey have you hear this joke? My friend (comic artist) Pat Moriarity sent it to me;

The Rehabilitated Parrot:

A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The
parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary.
Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious
and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the
bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite
words, playing soft music and anything else he could think
of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The
parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got
angrier and even more rude. John, in desperation, threw up
his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a
few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed.
Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard
for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot,
John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot
calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and
said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude
language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate
transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to
correct my rude and unforgivable behavior." John was
stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was
about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change
in his behavior, the bird continued, "May I ask what
the turkey did?"

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
