Well, not 15 degrees, but it'll be there tomorrow! We get our tree the first weekend after Thanksgiving and it comes down before the New Year. That's a southern tradition. Anyway, I'll bet your house is smelling good with lime and cloves and some baking. Yum!

Our tree is now standing in the living room waiting for the lights to be put on it tomorrow. Baking on Sunday ~ and I am looking forward to cocktails tomorrow night. Stay warm ~ it is also freezing up here but the temps are suppose to rise this week. The weather man is predicting a green Christmas here in the Maritimes and that makes me a bit sad.

This year I'm keeping it simple so my artifical tree will do just fine.
