Happy New Year!

I hope that the rest of the year goes better for me than yesterday though. The furnace fan and microwave both failed yesterday.

I know its often not as good as homemade, but I would sure like to be able to get eggnog (in those milk carton containers in grocery stores) all year around--I'm having the type by Prairie Farms---boy, that stuff is good!

What a depressing wish. I really hope I don't peak this year and the rest of my life is downhill. :wink:

Happy New Year, though. :biggrin:
