DEAR SUN SPOTS: You are always so helpful. The thrilling days of yesteryear were a blast. Does anyone remember Pleasant Dairy and the milk trucks that used to deliver milk through the neighborhoods in the Twin Cities? They had the best-tasting eggnog around. It was so good I could drink a whole gallon of it. I was wondering if anyone could share information on how they made it. I don’t think the stores sold it back then. — Christine, Lewiston

ANSWER: Surely other readers remember Pleasant Dairy. Please share your memories. It would be fun to read them! If anyone knows the eggnog recipe especially, please write!

DEAR SUN SPOTS: I used to buy canned tomatoes that had a bit of a kick to them but I don’t remember the name of the product. I think there were chili peppers in them and I used them for a special dip. — Mary, no town

ANSWER: Are you talking about Rotel? It’s really good stirred into melted Velveeta and enjoyed with tortilla chips!
