Oh, yeah. We’re going to need directions, too. I’ve never been to this house.

After further review, I’ll get some kahlua to go with the egg nog, and think of something more… well, foody to bring as well.

But I’m still curious how to make the stuff from scratch.

I’ll send directions a little later on, when everyone who needs them has emailed me. At last count, three people wanted directions.

The egg part is easy-it’s finding primo grade nog which elevates the difficultitude. 😃

Actually, they get the nog from the naugas. You have to go to the nauga farms and collect the nog after they’ve slaughtered the naugas for their hyde…

Well, I don’t have any personal experience with naugas. They don’t do well in this climate. We’re heavy into mo ranches around here. They raise them for their hair.

I’m gonna have to (regretfully) sit this one out. It’s just way too much driving for a single day.

Hope to catch y’all some other time.

If you look 8 posts up, I said that I’ll send them all out at the same time, after I’d heard from everyone. I will send them early next week.

Airman and I are making every effort to come to the point where he’s going to schedule a replacement for his drill weekend.

Believe me, we need it! :eek:

Robin; if she mumbles something about LYBUNTs and PYBUNTS, just pat her on the head and sit her in the corner.

I must stress that if you don’t email me, I will NOT send you our address. I’m just not organized enough.

Well, phooey and crap and all that. We’re leaving for the west coast on the 8th, so instead of Doping it up with all of you, Papa T. and I will be visiting family. I would MUCH rather be Doping it up with all of you than spending that day with my in-laws! Phooey and crap and all of that.

Next year you’ll do it when I’m in town, promise? Because there’s so many of you I’d love to finally meet!
