Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! I hope you have a lovely Christmas planned with friends and family. This blog is super short because I want us all to enjoy this time of celebration. However, I do have a quick story…

One of my favorite things about Christmas is eggnog! Why? Let me tell you a story. This story is part of family lore and it goes something like this.

I was born on December 30 in upstate New York, in a small town called Corning. According to family legend, on the 29th there was a big snow storm and even though I was ready to “pop out”, as it were, my Mum didn’t want my Dad to drive her to the hospital in the very bad weather. Instead, she asked for big glass of eggnog with a dash of rum, which promptly put her to sleep. 

Better rested the next day, with the snow storm abated, they got in the station wagon and traveled safely to the hospital. I was very happy to arrive into the world several hours later. Ever since, I’ve loved eggnog myself and it’s a part of the holiday season that I treasure each year. To heck with all the calories, right?

Do you have a fun Christmas story or tradition? Please share it with me and my #annesuniverse creative community. We’d love to hear it. 

I won’t be live on Wednesday for the next two weeks. I’ll be back for my next broadcast on January 8 at noon pacific / 3pm eastern on my Facebook business page: Anne LaFollette Art or on my YouTube channel.

Merry Christmas!
