Above: Adie & the Twins, a local musical act from Sharon Springs, introduce a couple of holiday recipes from the Beekman Boys' 2011 holiday advent calendar.
This holiday season, local celebs Josh Kilmer-Purcell and Brent Ridge -- a.k.a., the Fabulous Beekman Boys -- are celebrating with an advent calendar for the digital age. Every day since December 1, the Beekman 1802 crew has been posting a different heirloom holiday recipe, lovingly lifted from the family scrapbooks of their friends and neighbors, and accompanied by a YouTube video.
Today's item is a twofer, courtesy of Beekman 1802's own Megan Holken and local band Adie & the Twins: Megan's Mom's Shuggie Butters and Adie and the Twin's Dad's Eggnog. Cue the musical accompaniment:
Santa, baby
There's one more thing that would float my boat
A goat
From Beekman 1802
Santa, baby
So hurry down the chimney tonight
