For 20 years I went to the Christmas tree farm down the road and chopped down these huge trees. One was 11’! Just crazy. I got real tired of doing that and it’s expensive. But the thing that made me go fake tree is watching my Dad burn my trees after Christmas. Those things roared into a huge fire in seconds! Mom gave me her old fake one.
I love Christmas especially since I had my son. He loves it too. It’s magical to me. All this stuff was acquired from friends, grandmothers, Mom, stuff my son made in school, ornaments I had as a child, ornaments from my grandmother that are probably 100 years old, and a lot I’ve accumulated over 30 years. I donated tons of stuff a few years ago. Christmas is special to me. I do the same decorating year after year and I can whip through it pretty quick.
It all goes down the day after Christmas.Going down is faster than going up.
It sounds wonderful!
I'm ashamed to admit, but I haven't had a Christmas tree in years.
The original called for cap vbic but I just today changed it to tfa and decided it needed some meringue.
Thank you sir
That is a shame. Not even a little one?
LOL. Well, @Uncle, you've got me pegged! Deviant, small minded, loin brained desperado that I am. As my hero Popeye (Mister Eye to you sir) said: I yam what I yam.That' was coordinated underware - NOT An Edible Treat . . . SO - While "YOU" are wishful in your thinking and hoping in desperation with your deviant mind - that would actually be a gift - NOPE -NA DA - NOT HAPPENING . . . It's supposedly a Gift for "Wifey" - NOT "YOU" . . . . Raise your small mind from your loins back up to your brain . . . . AND - Start thinking something more romantic for a "WOMAN" . . . Even as a GAY MAN, I know that . . . Just Sayin' . . .

Agreed. It's really nice alone. Also nice mixed with watermelon, or the FLV cantaloupe. I also like: FLV cantaloup 3%, FA Pear 1%, INW Shisha Strawberry 1%, Pur watermelon 2.5%, FLV wild melon 1.5%.
Just your basic cornbread stuffing. I think I found the recipe in Southern Living Magazine, so you’d think it would be good. I even used the broth generated by making the Turkey in the stuffing and it was still no bueno! I also wanted to do a Cajun spiced cornbread stuffing and it was better than the other, but I decided it still wasn’t good enough to make again after my two tries. I really enjoy cooking and am known as a good cook, but I have no stuffing making skills. If you have a good cornbread stuffing recipe please share. I wouldn’t make it this year, but I would definitely make it. I love stuffing!
Sorry, I'm a white bread stuffing kind of gal. Zero experience with the cornbread variety.
I don't put sausage in my stuffing, but raisins are delish. Walnuts are good, too.AND - Italian Sausage & Rasins too . . .

Usually with cornbread stuffing you’ll add onions, butter, celery and spices and broth. It’s involved because of all the chopping, but not hard, yet it seems to be beyond my skill set.
Don't feel bad or ashamed. I gave away my trees and decorations many many years ago. I have attack cats and we don't really get into the holiday. I usually work.
I love me some stuffing but it's always Stove Top - I do all the cooking here but have never tried making it. Cornbread stuff sounds wonderful!
Off topic: OMG more patients are coming up with covid-19. 4 more. One has covid really bad and was sent to the ER. The mass infections are coming. I did a covid test again today. I still feel like crap but my last covid test was supposedly negative.
