Egg Nog from Carolyn across the street

For some 20 plus years now, Mark's mom has made Egg Nog from a recipe from her neighbor, who is usually referred to as Carolyn, from across the street. Stop by our house on Thanksgiving or Christmas, and we serve it up as well. In fact, all my siblings and Mark's siblings make it as well. You may want to double or triple this, depending how many you make it for.

Carolyn's Egg Nog

2 eggs, well beaten (I skip the eggs if there are pregnant or nursing mothers amongst our guests)
1 can Eagle milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. salt
1 quart of whole milk (or you can use 2 percent)
1/2 pint whipping cream, whipped
nutmeg

Combine first four ingredients with hand mixer.
Gradually beat in milk.
Gently fold in whipped cream.
Chill. Sprinkle with a dash of nutmeg when serving, if desired.
