9. That's what I say. It's available for such a brief time as it is.
Kind of like fresh Bing Cherries or the best of REAL local tomatoes or sweet corn.

Life is too short to deprive yourself of such things.

6. It's Time---Do it now
I bought some last week. It was good. You are un-necessarily depriving yourself.

Our local Dairy does Eggnog Ice Cream as of Nov 1----That's Eggnog Day in our House.

Pumpkin Starts October 1st.---I'm sick of it the day after Thanksgiving

14. I have discovered..
Coffee Mate Creamer in Egg Nog flavor - special for the holidays! One tablespoon in the coffee per day will help tide me over until I can really have a glass of egg nog. It's good!

8. Do you mean "buy the eggnog"...OR
"drink the eggnog"

OR are you willing to admit that once you buy it , its a done deal and will be consumed within 1 hour of getting home ?

10. Buy it now!
keep it in a warm place like the top of your fridge. Come December 1, crack it open and have a glass.

Then, next November when you're tempted to buy the nog early, just remember those long nights bent over the toilet!
:D

11. Day after Thanksgiving -- time for an Egg Nog latte.
In addition, it's all Egg Nog, all the time... 24/7 Egg Nog, through New Year's Eve.

I loves my egg nog.... yummmmmy.
Shot of brandy? rum? What do you like?

13. Any time you want it.
It is NOT acceptable for my waistline, though, to buy it until the week before Christmas. I have no self-control when it comes to egg nog, so I have to avoid it for now and keep it as a special treat.

Has anyone noticed that in the last few years they've been bringing out the egg nog for HALLOWEEN? Cartons of egg nog adorned with jack-o-lanterns and witches? Since when is egg nog a Halloween thing? Cinnamon sugar doughnuts and apple cider - THAT'S Halloween!
