I know...the weather doesn't seem like that time of year. December 3rd and I walked to work this morning in a sweater...still this was what the window at Evergrain looked like yesterday...
That's Matilda Wessel decorating the tree. With the expansion of the bakery there are now twice as many windows to decorate as last year to say nothing of mouths to feed when you throw in farmer's markets in Balston, Virginia, Easton and Denton.
My son Daniel has been waiting for the arrival of Egg Nog at Evergrain but as for me, the main event is the arrival of Doug's "Stolen." I still remember the first time I tried it several years ago. I was skeptical but a friend of mine was visiting from Baltimore, we ordered two slices and a cup of coffee and what a surprise. Details when I can finally announce it's arrival in Chestertown.
Speaking of egg nog, I posted my father's egg nog recipe last year and will do the same in a few weeks but I'm also thinking of experimenting and making a "Mocha" egg nog...using Kahlua as the new ingredient...I'll keep you posted.
