This Month’s Issue: Food Traditions
Some love it. Some hate it. But this time of year, grocery stores inevitably make room for it in their dairy aisles: eggnog. You don’t have to source your eggnog from the store, though. Several NC dairies make annual batches, or you can cook some up yourself. Learn how to do both. (I happen to like eggnog, for the record.) Also, learn about a new microgrid project.
