It’s just a few weeks before Christmas and we’ve already had our first snowfall here in Detroit. I still haven’t really started my holiday shopping and I’m convinced the Christmas stockings that I bought when we moved here three years ago will never be found. So, the stockings will NOT be hung by the chimney with care.

But… I’m starting to get in the holiday spirit and am longing for my first eggnog of the season.
