I used to love eggnog when my grandma made it. That was a LONG time ago and I can't make it like she does, so having it only during the Holiday Season is fine by me. And if I remember right (which I may not) it seems to me as though she used to cook hers, before chiling it off. I do know we always drank it cold, but is was frothy or something - different somehow, that's for sure.
I'll agree on the pumpkin pie and I would add - boiled eggs at Easter. After a solid week of egg salad sandwiches, hard boiled eggs and deviled eggs, I can not eat the damned things again until the folllowing spring. I have a similar issue with cranberries - I guess they have to be served with turkey. We raise turkeys, so we eat them year round, almost always served with cranberries, but I don't know if I have ever eaten cranberries when turkey was not being served.
