Shh! Some people in my family are addicted to a special egg nog that can only be found in one place. Years ago, it was easy to satisfy their longings, but ever since 2001, when most of the Farm Stores closed, egg nog has been quite difficult to buy. Not just any egg nog will do, you see. It must be Farm Stores brand.
We've recently found a supplier.
Farm Stores are a chain of little convenience stores that started in Miami, Florida. A customer would simply drive through either side of the store; never leaving their car.
This sign has been a beacon to many.
They sell a small variety of essentials, all reasonably priced.
Ken tells us that folks from as far away as Georgia come for this elixir. Note: it contains no alcohol; it needs none.
Don't ever taste this stuff, or you too will become addicted. There is no comparison with any other brand!
*Update: as of Dec., 2015, It's still sold in the Tampa area.

We called in advance and a sweet guy named Ken promised to save two bottles for us. As we pull in and introduce ourselves, making our request known, Ken steps into the refrigerated back room to find the liquid gold.
This plain bag contains two half gallons of the source of smiles for my daughter and son-in-law. Oops! I gave away the identities of the addicts, but you won't tell, will you?
