When do you put up your tree? Do you have certain colors you prefer? What do you like a full meal or antipasto and sweets. Do you spoil the kids with gifts? Do you go wild with lights and what color? Me I'm in love with white lights, my tree is in crystal,gold silver and covered with angels.The kitchen is done in red plaid, the family room mauve,silver,gold and even more angels Oh yes I put tons of crystal icecycles all over the tree. We all get dressed up in our sunday best. I bake for several weeks beforehand, there are platters of Italian meats and cheeses,bread and foccacia, peppers,pickels,olives,nuts,several salads,hot appys as well as cold, my dad's avocado dip,candy,cake,cookies, We never get to bed before 1:00 the kids all ask to spend the night. All 4 help me make a breakfast casserole for morning plus they wage war over the doughnuts that we sneak in the night before.That's my Christmas way to go what if yours?How long does your tree stay UP? Mine till after the New Year
