Good points, Bryan. I have seen quite a few LED Christmas lights on commercials recently, which is good (saying they use 70-90% less energy). Also, a pretty hefty amount of people use fake trees now because it is much easier, cheaper, and cleaner (and allergen free).

On the other hand, we still use regular lights, for lack of better terms, and a real tree. Something about the LED lights makes them seem harsher on the eyes, it's sort of nauseating after a while. We still use a real tree because it supports our church and the smell is great. Hard to beat the real deal on something like that.

A funnier note is that there won't be any collards on the table this Thanksgiving! They haven't had a frost, so they'll be too bitter. Always feels good when the meaning of the holiday is still remembered and it's a plus when most of the food that you eat for it is home grown.
