Nogtober

I spotted the season's first egg nog on Saturday night (Oct 2, for the calendaring types), kicking off the annual Nog Watch practically in September. Maybe the powers-that-be are testing me, to see whether I'll really stick to my "I'll drink nog as long as they'll supply it" guns. Consider these guns stuck.

For previous years' Nog Watches, go here.

For the impatient folks wishing for more photos of Kid B, go here.

Son of First Nog

Remember this?

Well, it's back. We had our first egg nog of the season a week before Halloween. The carton even had a flying witch on it. Amazing. The makers of the nog have figured out that we- the lovers of the nog- want it as early as they- the makers of the nog- can get it to us. I can't wait until they have back-to-school egg nog and patriotic egg nog.

The Cream O' Weber in the fridge will be gone soon enough. And, as I wrote last year and as I discussed with our friend Craig last week, our fridge will not be nogless until the stores are.
