That was when we made the switch to an artificial tree also. It, along with a collection of ornaments accumulated over our lifetimes, lives up in my attic. After my husband passed 7 years ago, it would have just seemed too sad to have put that tree with those ornaments again, even if I could...

Now that is vintage! My grandma had one of those.

That sounds like a wonderful snack, especially paired with wine! My favorite dish, hands down, is stuffing. (I cook it in a separate pan, but still call it stuffing.) I shred or cut a large loaf of good bread into bite sized pieces, and add finely chopped garlic, onions, celery, liver...
