Wishing you and yours the merriest of Christmas Eve celebrations today!
Just a reminder, if you would like some fresh air, consider going to see Santa and his water skiing elves at the Old Town Alexandria, Virginia Waterfront at 1 pm today.
There are so many options for today; if you need some ideas, please check out the calendar.
Oh, and did you know that today is also Egg Nog day? Here is a recipe if you would like to make some from scratch.
Creamy Holiday Eggnog (from the Pillsbury Kitchen Cookbook, out of print)

Ingredients:
- 6 pasteurized eggs, separated
