[/QUOTEGirlfriend's idea. However, she also talked me into a sparkling/Champagne tasting Friday night that I wasn't planning on going to. You take the good with the not so good!

Frankly, if there is one thing where eggnog sounds like it would work it would be in making french toast. Eggs and dairy, and a touch of booze? Hmmmm.... I wouldn't drink it, but soaking some day old slices of baguette in this sounds kinda interesting.

Oh, now I am a fan of Champagne plus girlfriend, SO/wife. No need for sparkling wine though unless it is used for something other than drinking.
Did another bubbly tasting yesterday. At the Roderer table, we actually both preferred the Anderson Valley Rose and "standard" Brut Premier to the Cristal. It was so "smooth" that to my unsophisticated palate it seemed boring.

I had a bowl of "Fuel" by Wheaties this morning. I would not recommend it, either.

I am, admittedly, just a little surprised that you've not experimented with this concoction before, PH
I think we expected more of the sweetness and nutmeg flavors to show. They were really muted; perhaps they cooked off? I was anticipating the eggnog flavors to be enough, but I ended up adding a little butter and blueberry syrup for flavor. We took a shot.

It's only because I had banned eggnog from the house many, many years ago. I truly can't even remember the last time this stuff even passed my lips.

Here we go again...snow day. Eight more inches on top of our sheet of ice. 
So, after our double espresso, we are thinking a wonderful mushroom omelette is in order for brunch with a bottle of Champagne.
