If you were a Christmas object, what would you be?

I made a simple bread pudding with a rum sauce the other day. Just a spoon taste warmed my cheeks.
It's just as simple to make your own egg nogg as you like it, with all the recipes available and many of them given five-star ratings. Still, you may have to gather the ingredients and so, by that time, it's more convenient to just grab a carton ready-made.

I remember back when I used to always look forward to the holiday season, because eggnog would start appearing on store shelves.

Then about 3 or 4 years ago, I discovered I could no longer find a brand that had genuine ingredients. They all had nonfat dry milk powder, spray dried egg yolks, high fructose corn syrup... Blech!

So for the last 3 years I have been buying milk at a local farm and making my own boiled custard at home. It beats the crap out of anything on the store shelf.

For me, a non-cooker, it's always supermarket-ready.

To me, it seems best fresh from the stovetop while it's still warm, which is fitting for a winter's day, and it's just as good after it's chilled but I'm not so sure about re-warming it.

Why limit your fire breathing skills to just roasting tanks and helicopters? Such a waste of talent.
Admittedly, this has been my usual meal plan after going about a decade with an empty nest, but recently having become a fairly new mee-maw, I've pulled out my wooden spoons again.

I never used wooden spoons. I'm a simple beast. Pre-prepared food because I just want to eat it... not spend 90 mins preparing, 30 mins cleaning, and 15 mins eating

Turns out it is mostly in the blending. Puree the crap out of it before cooking, let it cool, then blend it to death again.

Good chilled or reheated. I'll drink it either way, depending on my mood.

Best thing to flavor it with is almond extract. Second best thing to flavor it with is a jar of chocolate peanut butter - dump it in while still hot and blend it up. (Still need to blend after cool.)

I'd be a christmas cracker

Party hat and lame out of season joke inside. There will also be a trinket, like that red cellophane fish that curls up and is meant to indicate ....something, or a giant paperclip.

since i'm a drummer, a drum!

You're a drummer... So you know the abuse a drum gets... And you WANT to get beat up like that?

Get the beat up for Christmas. The drum has to make a sacrifice lol.
