It's About to Get Ugly

Last year on facebook, I saw pictures of a friend that had gone to an "Ugly Christmas Sweater" party. It looked like so much fun that I wanted to do one this year. We had a great night and all of the people that came were such good sports. We have great friends.

I thought I'd be fancy and try to make my own eggnog. I found a recipe that people raved about online, so I tried it and after two batches of stirring and stirring and stirring over low heat (so as not to curdle) to bring to a boil and only partially filling the punch bowl I was serving it from, I thought "this is for the birds" and bought the rest and mixed them together. I guess "fancy" I am not.

I took a million pictures, so please bear with me.
