Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!!
Max, our youngest is working at a local greenhouse. They are getting trees in now. Let me tell you this about the trees...years ago (1980s) I was driving across the mountains toward Maryland for Thanksgiving. I couldn't believe how many huge trucks full of Christmas trees I saw!! Don't be fooled; you can buy one tomorrow, put take it home and put it in water. Or you can wait 3 weeks and buy one just like it that has been sitting outside without water. Unless you cut your own, you just don't know how long it's been hanging around. I used to put up several live trees but when I burned one outside after Christmas once, and saw how fast it went up, all the ones in our house are artificial now. I don't care if you had a whole barrel of water beside it, if it went up in flames you wouldn't stand a chance.
Whew, I didn't mean to sound so critical/bossy. LOL
Crash those diets!! Don't forget the pecan pie! 🙂
Hugs to alla y'all.
