What do you put on your tree?

[Andem]

Peapod wanted me to make this poll for her.. So what do you put atop your xmas tree? A star, an angel? other thing?

 

[peapod]

Well I don't put up a christmas tree, not into it, to busy as you can see from my new signatuare. But we have a big one at work, there is a horrible plastic angel on top with beady eyes and well its just plain ugly.

 

[JDream]

A star, I guess.

 

[EternalSunshine]

An oversized star.

 

[peapod]

Eternal I like that one, much nicer than a plastic angel :wink:

I'm like PeaPod .... I don't put up a tree either.

At Christmas, I intend to visit some friends who have kids and who still believe in Santa Claus.
I'll go there for Christmas dinner and the money I save on not having to buy a turkey myself, I'll spend to buy the kids a toy.

But, I love my cranberry sauce! It ain't Christmas without "whole" cranberry sauce!

Two years ago, my sister sent me a complete Christmas dinner. A farmer from up near Kingston sells turkeys and he delivers.
I even got a pumpkin pie for dessert!
I'd drag my "Herman" across a mile of broken glass for a piece of pumpkin pie and ice cream right now.

Calm

this year we have a small moose statue to place on the top. nothing too elaboret, i don't like it to take over the whole tree, if you know what i mean, but it is a canuck tradition in our home, and he looks quite comfortable there. i think.

RE: What do you put on yo

I don;t put up a tree, but Mrs. Rev does. At some point it always ends up being topped by a cat.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: everything and everbody is comfortable at your house, everybody is drunk all the time :wink:

everything and everbody is comfortable at your house, everybody is drunk all the time

that was a little nasty pea, but you know that all us canucks are heavy drinkers.......that's the only way we can cope. now that i think about it, i think that is the only way we can cope in society in the western hemisphere is to drink or smoke dope. something like that. i think i am right on that one. 8O

The cats aren't drunk...they're on catnip. :wink:

 

[peapod]

Sorry I wouldn't know

 

[galianomama]

The cats aren't drunk...they're on catnip.

you know rev, we had to quit giving the cat nip to our four footed friends, they just got way too hyper on the stuff.....got kinda nasty too. do you regulate it, or do they have 'free range' cat nip?

 

[sj007]

go plain star or a cat depends

 

[Rick van Opbergen]

I voted other ... we put this "piek" on top ... don't know how to translate it ... it looks like this one - very much actually. It's red too.

RE: What do you put on yo

We give it to them as a treat, galianomama. They get it a lot less this time of year because they can't get outside to burn off any excess energy, but we still give them some.

Being a Darwin household,
Zen and I have a fibre-optic-techno tree with a little monkey on the top. The angels and stars live in the house.

RE: What do you put on yo

You put Zen on top of the tree? ;-)

 

[Andem]

Yeah we used to put an angel ontop of the tree which was pretty and gave it some character. Now we have this ugly plastic star with Christmas lights attached to it, I don't like :roll: Though I guess it's more modern to have a star that lights up, but the fake gold plastic it quite tacky.

I also don't like the fake trees, but they are better for me as they I don't get those pine allergic reactions and itchy skin
