And what is wrong with that?? ;-)

Gad, this is an old thread, chickie. Makes me get all nosta-jlick and whatnot... 'Course it would help if I could actually remember what the hell was going on a year ago, bwaha...

For all you domestic-minded ladies and gents out there--

MAX'S CHRISTMAS CAKE

Ingredients:
1 cup of water
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp salt
1 cup of brown sugar
lemon juice
4 large eggs
nuts
1 fifth Jose Cuervo
2 cups of dried fruit

Sample the Cuervo to check quality.
Take a large bowl, check the Cuervo again.
To be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink.
Repeat.
Turn on the electric mixer.
Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl.
Add one teaspoon of sugar.
Beat again.
At this point it's best to make sure the Cuervo is still OK.
Try another cup .... just in case
Turn off the mixerer thingy.
Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit.
Pick the frigging fruit off floor.
Mix on the turner.
If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver.
Sample the Cuervo to check for tonsisticity. Next, sift two cups of salt. Or something. Who giveshz a sh!t.
Check the Jose Cuervo
Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table.
Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can find. Greash the oven.
Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Don't forget to beat off the turner. Finally, throw the bowl through the window, Finish the Jose Cuervo and kick the cat.

CHERRY MISTMAS!

Tears. I am in tears that was so funny! LMAO!

FWIW, I don't bother with complicated eggnog recipes. There's a pretty good packaged version put out by a smaller dairy around here, and I mix by the cup.

BADFREEPER'S LAZY EGGNOG

1 oz light rum (I use Appleton's)
2 oz Irish Cream (I use Bailey's)
1 oz Grand Marnier (I suppose one could use Cointreau, but why?)
1 cup store-bought eggnog
nutmeg
whipped cream
cinnamon


Pour rum and GM into directly into glass or mug you plan to drink from
Pour Bailey's into separate glass
Add eggnog to Bailey's and stir well with a small spoon or whisk
Slowly pour half of eggnog mixture in with booze and stir or whisk
Add remaining eggnog mix and 1/2 tsp nutmeg and stir or whisk
Top with whipped cream and sprinkle cinnamon to taste

Serves 2. Or Badfreeper. -HIC-
