The Egg Nog Search continues

Just like my search for the best Salt and Vinegar potato chips, my quest for the best Pumpkin Egg Nog rages on. 

Our two recent contenders was Silk’s Pumpkin Spice and Wawa’s Pumpkin Spice egg nog. 

The verdict? 

Both are epic failures.  Do not attempt to drink these.  You will be sorely disspointed.  With every drink, the more I missed the Champion. 

(Note, there is not called “Pumpkin Spice” like the two losers.  Maybe that should have been the biggest giveaway of it’s suck-a-tude. 

Long live the champion.  Again, do not walk.  Drive to your store as fast as you can and pick up a quart or two.  Then share the quart with me. 

Got it?  Good.

I have discovered my child’s future job

William Shatner has made his recent career as being the pitch man for Priceline.com.  The latest campaign is the Priceline Negotiator.  If you all thought that Shatner is the negotiator, think again.  MG and I have discovered that Mo has developed quite a skillset herself.

Here are a few examples for your reading pleasure.  Please put down your liquid beverage.  I shall not be held accountable for any beverages spilled or spit during the ensuing words.

Daddy:  Mo, drink your drink.
Mo:  Daddy, how about I drink this much?

Daddy: Mo, can you move your stool?
Mo:  Daddy, I’m gonna move it over to here.  Okay?

Daddy:  Mo, get dressed.
Mo:  Daddy, I’ll wear these shoes, but I don’t want to wear socks.  I want to show off my toenails.

Daddy, Mo, what is your sunshine for today?
Mo:  If you paint my toenails, that will be my sunshine for today.

*hits head over and over and over*

I tried to blame this trait on her mother, but she replied. “I don’t negotiate, I argue.” Well, I guess she must get it from me.

So, if you are worried that my child will be lost in the career jungle some day, have no fear.  She is well equipped.

Drooling beings in 3..2..1..

Those that know me know that I looove Egg Nog.  MG turned me onto Turkey Hill egg nog back in the day and I’ve been addicted.

Those that know me know that I love pumpkin pie.  It is the one thing, besides Cranberry Sauce, that I look forward to during the Thanksgiving Season. 

This year, my love of pumpkin has grown.  I’ve have Pumpkin Tea and even Pumpkin Port Wine (OH SO YUMMY!). 

Well, if you add my love of Egg Nog with the love of Pumpkin you get this.  BEHOLD.

The stuff is amazing.  Totally amazing.

I’m gonna go wipe the drool off now…
