"I've Said It Before and I'll Say It Again" by Hafiz

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: It’s not my fault that with a broken heart, I’ve gone this way. In front of a mirror they have put me like a parrot, And behind the mirror the Teacher tells me what to say.

GROWN-UP EGGNOG

Everyone has their recipe for 21-and-over eggnog. Here’s mine. Now, you can make the eggnog homemade if you want — that recipe is pretty standard, though there are some variations. The one I’ll put forward is this: 4 eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 1/2 cups whole milk, 1 cup heavy...
