Why Is It Raining in the House? Weekend Recap
Guten Morgan this fine Monday. I hope your weekend was a bitchin one and you're ready for a short week. (Or maybe you pup owners are breaking out the Thunder shirts in anticipation of the people who are going to be setting off fireworks for the next seven days. I know we always have people setting them off at random usually starting tonight. I do actually miss sparklers from when I was a kid and conducting a symphony to make shapes in the air burned into your vision.) Friday was exhausting y'all. I had to get some worm spray for a looper worm infestation on my brassicas (who the hell am I??) and whilst poking around the nursery with lightning and looming thunder Thursday night, I spotted a flat of begonias marked down to $10. Given my zinnias couldn't stay in the long planters because they need sun, I had to relent and buy the begonias. Anything to block the sea hag from peeking over. So Friday morning I got to work picking of...
These are soooo awesome! I love eggnog and these cookies capture the essence of that holiday flavor perfectly. One of my co-workers liked these so much that he asked for the recipe and had his wife make more for him the next day!
ReplyDeleteThey are SOOOO good! I'm so glad I found them and if you pick up some of that egg nog from TJ's I might make you a batch. :)
DeleteI think this may be my favorite of the year too. I'm firmly in the eggnog lovers camp, but I buy light eggnog and then cut it with skim milk. The idea of that flavor in a cookie makes me really happy. Plus this year I found light, pumpkin spice flavored eggnog so I'll totally be trying a batch with that.
ReplyDeleteYou'll thank me later! :)
DeleteHmm..not a fan of eggnog but might have to try these for the nutritional value...83 calories for a cookie..heaven!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely and I think you'll actually like the taste. More nutmeggy than anything.
DeleteLOVE eggnog. I'm a junkie thats why I stay away! I never really knew there were people who didn't like it ;) I'm not a baker, but you're inspiring me! Thanks again for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYay! I hope you make 'em, they yummy!
DeleteI am in that camp with you, sister. I can't stand the thought of drinking the stuff, but eggnog flavored cookies? YES PLEASE!
ReplyDeleteExactly! I'm hungry now!
DeleteI am definitely a NON-egg nog lover. Can't stand the oopy, goopy stuff! I'm a bit too skittish to try the enhanced stuff too :/
