Christmas trees — Artificial or real?

Nothing can take the place of a Christmas tree when it comes time to decorate our homes for the holidays. The tree is the focal point of the Christmas décor and sets the tone for the style and colours of all the other festive decorations.

The pleasure of

decorating the tree is what counts the most, whether you choose to have a natural or an artificial one. Both types of trees have their pros and cons.

The advantages of a natural tree: • It fills the house with a wonderful aroma • It has a natural

as they are cultivated for this purpose.

Gas and oil use are minimal in their production; they can be composted; and they are produced locally or regionally • It doesn’t require storage space The advantages of an artificial tree: • It is simple to set up • It doesn’t lose its needles • It doesn’t need to be watered • If kept for more than ten years it could end up being less expensive than buying a natural tree every year To avoid a “busy” effect when decorating your Christmas tree, choose a style or theme for your decorations.

Here are a few examples: monochrome decorations, antique look, modern style, food theme (figures made of gingerbread or pastry), or a wild touch (feathers, synthetic fur, reindeers). Once you’ve chosen your theme, take the time to find decorations that go well together and that will create the look you want.

• Get out the punch bowl and put it to work, or use a large glass pitcher. (Glass punch cups are readily available at thrift shops.)

• Freeze some of your punch in one or two ice cube trays, and use this instead of ice cubes to avoid diluting your drink.

• For decorative ice, add a few sweetened, dried cranberries, cherries, mint leaves, pieces of orange, or bits of pineapple to each ice cube tray compartment. Pour in diluted apple juice or water, and freeze.

Add to the punch just before serving.

• To keep hot punch from cooling too much, don’t pour it all into the punch bowl but simmer about 1/4 of it on the stovetop, and occasionally use it to top off the bowl.

• Use your slow-cooker, set on low, to heat nonalcoholic drinks and keep them hot. Allow about 2 hours for the ingredients to get hot.

• If you use whole spices, add them when you first heat up the ingredients, and strain them out before serving; or tie them up in a cheesecloth bundle and remove before serving.

Christmas Punch This punch is a beautiful addition to your Christmas table. Not only does it feature the holiday’s colours, it is a divine mix that your guests will love.

Yield: Makes 12 eight-ounce cups; 15 six-ounce.

1 quart cranberry juice 1 cup sugar 2 cups orange juice 1 cup pineapple juice 3/4 cup fresh or frozen lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon almond extract 2 cups ginger ale, chilled 1 pint pineapple sherbet Blend cranberry juice, sugar, fruit juices, and almond extract. Refrigerate, covered, until serving time. Just before serving, stir in ginger ale and sherbet.

Some tips on recycling your Christmas waste Submitted

Recycling isn’t just for Christmas time.

There are more items and packaging to recycle around Christmas, but make it your gift to the environment to recycle all year round. These tips from Recyle More will help you to stay environmentally conscious year round.

After Christmas you can recycle your used packaging, used electrical items and batteries.

Keep all recyclables clean. Remember to wash and squash before popping them into your recycle bin.

Remember put the following Christmas packaging in your recycle bin once they’re clean and dry: Cardboard and paper, food tins, aluminum drink cans, aluminum trays and plastic (Recyclable).

Keep glass separate for recycling at the bottle bank or recycling centre. Do not leave your bottles on the ground in boxes or bags at the bottle bank as this slows collections and is a litter offence leaving you open to potential prosecution.

How to recycle your used cardboard and Christmas wrapping paper: Fold used wrapping paper rather than scrunching it up. This

will help you sort it and you’ll fit more in your recycling bin.

Remember that Christmas crackers and Christmas cards are all recyclable.

Flatten used boxes and remove any plastic inserts in selection boxes.

No need to worry about selotape on wrapping paper; this can be recycled too.

Make sure all the cardboard and paper is clean and dry.

How to recycle food tins: Rinse out the tins to remove any left over food or sauce.

Place the lids or tops inside the washed tin.

If you can, squash the tin, then pop it into your recycle bin.

How to recycle Aluminum cans: Rinse out the drink cans to get rid of any left over fizzy drink.

Squash the can and pop it into your recycle bin.

Aluminum is not just used in drinks cans, you will find it in other areas around the house and it’s just as recyclable as a drinks can.

Aluminium trays – from mince pies and when you have eaten enough turkey don’t forget to recycle your take-away food trays.

Just make sure these items are clean and dry.

Squash or flatten them and pop them into your recycle bin.

How to recycle Plastic: Recycle all plastic containers with the number 1 and 2 placed inside a triangle, usually shown on the base of these bottles.

These include items such as plastic drinks bottles, milk bottles, shampoo bottles, detergent and washing up liquid bottles, soap dispenser bottles,shower gel bottles and yogurt drink bottles.

Always rinse these bottles out to get rid of any leftovers.

Then squash them and pop them into your recycle bin.

The company that collects your recycle bin may take more types of plastic in their recycle bins, so check with them to see if you can recycle more.

How to recycle glass.

Rinse out glass drinks bottles to get rid of any left over liquid.

Don’t forget to recycle your mayonnaise, cranberry and pickled sauce jars.

Clean out your glass jars to get rid of any left over food.

Give the lids a quick wash and pop them separately into the recycle bin too.

Try to use reusable bags or boxes to collect up your glass bottles.

Remember don’t

friends bring love to your home and joy to your heart.

just recycle items from your kitchen.

Maybe make a New Years resolution to recycle more by recycling from other areas of the house like the living room, bedroom, bathroom and

home office or study.

When the festivities are over bring any unwanted gifts of clothes or toys to your local charity shop.

Best wishes this holiday season!
