Holiday Egg Nog
So Christmas vacation has always been my personal all time favorite Christmas movie. I especially love the scene where Clark loses it and dunks his moose cup in that big punch bowl of egg nog and says: “it’s good, good, good… it’s good.” That bowl of egg nog always left an impression on me, I am a huge fan of egg nog and I decided it was finally time to make my own homemade egg nog… I’m serious clark!
