In Fannie Flagg's novel "The All-Girl Filling Station's Last Reunion," a festive gathering takes an unexpected turn. Lenore, the host, serves her guests a potent eggnog mixture that consists largely of rum, leading to unforeseen consequences.
When the children's guardians arrive, they find the kids in a state of inebriation, stumbling around the living room. This humorous and chaotic scene highlights the potential pitfalls of overindulgence during holiday celebrations, showcasing Flagg's blend of comedy within a familial setting.
