I used a fake tree the last 2 years, (for the first time ever, so I still have mixed feelings)so it does usually go up earlier so the kids enjoy it. I feel sad for the kids whose parents take the tree down the day after!<br /><br />Looks like Christmas (and it's desserts) was wonderful!

It's always a delight to see what you make for them. <br /><br />I don't think I could deal with decorating a tree until Christmas Eve but I know many people used to do it that way but I'll bet you're in the minority now. One of my girlfriends said her parents would put a sheet over the tree and remove it on Christmas Eve.SavoringTime in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14416968440250548090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2318334172681612322.post-28579226000292260972009-12-28T03:58:27.147-08:002009-12-28T03:58:27.147-08:00Your desserts look wonderful and apple pie is my f...Your desserts look wonderful and apple pie is my favorite.
