We were both ...I remember our first Christmas tree. We were both in grad school and very poor... there were no dollar stores and trees in the Bay Area where we lived were upwards of $20 minimum. We had no ornaments so we decided to have a holiday party and ask everyone bring an ornament... for the $5 split leaf philodendron we found at the grocery store... but we invited too late and no one was able to come. We did aquire a plastic ornament from a happy meal, fairly elegant as it was a plastic replica of a clear crystal rectangle depicting a scene from A Christmas Carol (in relief.) At least it was memorable if not warm and fragrant! Yours was much lovelier. <BR/>MmMmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11323606421351754039noreply@blogger.com
