Christmas Tree, real or fake??

We have always had a fake tree. They're just so much easier.

If we ever craved the smell of pine, we'd just go outside and cut off some limbs from our pine trees . . . lay them on the mantle or something like that.

Real! Always real, especially as Miss Hoppy regards it as a chew treat, and a nice play to lie under. We have a big kitchen, so it's usually in there, which means the needles are easier to sweep up than they would be on the living rom rug, too.

Fake. I just can't stand to waste the Earth's resources for the sake of decorating my house for 2 weeks. I hate seeing all of the trees that are thrown out the day after. Ugh.

The fake ones look just as good as the real ones these days, and if I really wanted the smell, I'll open a bottle of pine-sol.

Either way, it's moot for me this year because I'm not putting up a tree for Payton to bring down.

We have a fake tree. It has always been fake, it will always be fake as I'm allergic to pine sap.
