I can’t believe Christmas is three days away!! I haven’t wrapped anything, is that bad? Today my plan of attack is to: 1. Wrap presents, 2. Make cookies, 3. Do the dishes (#foodbloggerproblems), and 4. Spend some quality time with the people I care about.
In that spirit, today’s post will be short and sweet. My offering is a raw vegan eggnog that takes minutes to throw together in the blender, but tastes deliciously festive and Christmas-y. I never used to like eggnog growing up, but I loved this drink. So I hope that all of you nog skeptics will love this too!
From the bottom of my heart, I hope each and every one of you has a blessed Christmas, and that your hearts are filled with love, joy, and peace this holiday season. God bless!

December 28, 2016 at 2:00 pmThis would taste so good with a little rum or bourbon! …and good on its own, too. ;-) Hope you had a great Christmas this year! Our December went by as a blur, so we are having a re-do the first week of January, and eggnog is on the books. And I’m with Rebecca – vegan is the only way to make it appetizing.
