It's a piece of cloth, usually circular with a hole, that goes around the bottom of the tree. It hides the tree stand and gives an area for presents to be not on the ground.
I'm really bad at posting cards on time. It's not like it's that hard to write them, but I don't really enjoy doing it and procrastinate. Today's the last day I can write and post them but I don't feel up for it, so my family will get late Christmas cards this year 😅

Wrapping. Putting the skirt on the tree. Maybe attempting to make some sun visor covers for a 24 year old civic.
What's a Christmas tree skirt? I'm intrigued

Ahhh pretty I approve
Everything lol. Cramming starts on Monday.

I still need to pick up a stack of gift cards
So it's a lot, but most of them are "don't".
Grab some fresh fruit for the stockings.
In an astonishing miracle, not much.
I'm sure there's some other shit that will come up, but we're doing good this year.
Last year we hadn't ordered most of the gifts yet.
Waiting for one final Christmas present to arrive before I can wrap it and place it under the tree.
Also have to make a brussel sprouts dish for Christmas Eve dinner.
Unpopular opinion but I really like sprouts.
I love them, too. Specially sautéed with a tasty fat (lard, EVOO, butter, all three work great), salt, black pepper, and a bit of lime juice.
Make Banofee pie and buy the fresh prawns on christmas eve
Woot! I fell in ❤️ with Banofee during a visit to Ireland in '99. Couldn't find that at all in the Boston area. Even in the Irish parts of town.
I actually found it a couple years ago in a smaller town bakery. That bakery has since closed. Haven't really hunted for it in the States again.
Enjoyed some more during my Ireland vacation this past March... Yummo!
A few more shopping trips, lots of wrapping, and several batches of cookies. It’s gonna be a long week.
Finishing the gift for my mother.
