I'm afraid I'm not sure what a homemade eggnog tastes like --for past few decades we just buy the stuff from the store. Yes, awful since too much sugar and other crap.

This was yesterday:

Had my usual breakfast which included milk and cornflakes, tangerine and tea with milk.

But later throughout the day at work:
2 candy canes
1 c. equivalent of chips
3 little cookie desserts
2 small chococlate wafers
1 doughnut
2 cups of coffee with milk

By supper, I had a good bowl of vegetable tomato soup. I could tell, they made it from scratch --not oily and not creamy. Great.

Supper was supplemented 2 hrs. later by 2 pretzel buns and a slice of cantaloupe.

Needless to say, if it weren't for the tomato soup, I could have had a sugar bonk.
