Comfortable Winter Entertaining Ideas

Winter entertaining need not end once Christmas and New Year’s Day have come and gone. Getting together with friends and family is still possible even if the weather outside is frightful. When Mother Nature takes a chilly turn, those who don’t want the party can consider the following entertaining ideas. · Indulge in sweet treats. Comfort foods can make even the most blustery winds easier to tolerate.

Invite people over for a dessert party. At a dessert pot luck party, everyone brings along a favorite decadent dessert, from molten lava chocolate cake to warm bread pudding. Serve alongside tea, coffee and hot chocolate. Adults can enjoy the added punch of spiked beverages, which can warm everyone up instantly. · Host a “snowed in” party. Spending a day cooped

up inside when the roads are covered in snow might not be your idea of fun, but invite a mix of friends and neighbors who live nearby over, and this impromptu party can make the cabin fever disappear.

Ask guests to bring one food item or beverage.

Light a fire in the fireplace and set out some cozy throw blankets. If possible, invite everyone outdoors to build a snowman.

the company of others. Send out an invitation for friends to stop by for a meal or plan a meal prep party.

· Host a movie marathon. Handpick some favorite films and invite everyone over for a movie marathon. Fill the family room, home theater room or living room to capacity and host a group for a film fest. If space permits, set up one room with a children’s movie for youngsters, while the adults retire · Get physical.

Christmas Trees Brighten the Season

Decked out in tinsel, lights, ornaments, and garland, Fraser fir Christmas trees are enduring symbols of the holiday season that boast a rich history.

Fraser fir trees are typically uniformly pyramidshaped trees that have strong branches that turn Evergreen trees have been used to celebrate winter slightly upward. These trees have good needle festivals for thousands of years, and eventually beretention and a dark, blue-green hue. Many people came associated with Christianity. Plants and trees feel these trees have a pleasant scent. Because they that remained green all year held special meaning are such a quintessential Christmas tree, Fraser fir, to ancient peoples, and were purported to keep as well as their close cousin, Balsam fir, tend to be away illness and evil spirits. more expensive than others.

Germans were credited with tying evergreen trees to Christmas celebrations. In the sixteenth century, devout Christians brought decorated trees into their homes. Martin Luther, the Protestant reformer, is believed to have first added lighted candles to these trees after he was inspired by twinkling stars in the night sky.

While early Americans found Christmas trees an oddity, the tradition, brought over by German settlers, eventually caught on. Today, between 25 and 30 million natural Christmas trees are sold in the United States each year, states the National Christmas Tree Association. Trees are grown in all 50 states and Canada.

The following is a look at some popular tree varieties.

Living Christmas trees Living Christmas tree, which refers to those with their roots still intact, are popular among ecoconscious holiday enthusiasts. That’s because living trees can be promptly planted after they’ve served their purpose indoors.

Opt for a moderately sized tree, as root balls on larger trees can be heavy and difficult to move.

Living trees can typically be kept indoors for around seven to 10 days before they will need to be returned outside. Move such trees to a sheltered outdoor area for one to two weeks so they can reacclimate to the climate. So long as the ground is not frozen, trees can then be planted when the reacclimation period ends. Better Homes and Gardens suggests selecting a mild day to plant the tree.

Scotch pine One of the advantages of Scotch pine trees is their needle retention. Experts say Scotch pine needles will not drop off even if the tree is dry. Scotch pine is an introduced species brought to North America

by European settlers, and it’s known for dark green foliage and sturdy, stiff branches. The Scotch pine is one of the most popular Christmas trees today.

White spruce As a Christmas tree, the white spruce is known for excellent foliage color, short stiff needles and good needle retention. The blue-green color is pleasant, but when needles are crushed, the tree doesn’t produce a favorable evergreen aroma. White spruce trees keeps their needles longer than other spruces.

With proper care, any variety of Christmas tree can look beautiful throughout the holiday season.
