When I was a kid we used to cut our own tree every year. Back when you just went up to the mountains and cut whatever you wanted to.

LOL! Great tradition!
And no...it doesn't have to be just one...share all faves!
Denice - you've mentioned the waffle & gravy dinner and I don't know about that one. hee! But I did mention it to dh when I first heard you talk about it and he seems game to try it!
