Tina, Telly loves egg nog, too. It's our staple drink around the holidays. So...we're planning on Christmas in Idaho 2009. Are you in or not? It might be the only way to find out if mom still makes the soup.
Fun!
Can I put in a request for money too? :)
That was fun to read! Maybe I'll do it if I can find some time! 21 days to go for you??? Can't wait to see pictures!!!
