I saved the tinsel because money was so tight back then. I used it for a couple of years, but then tossed it when I learned it was harmful to pets.<br /><br />I wonder if that's why they don't make it anymore?<br /><br />This was a very sweet memory. I think I would've liked Eleanora. :)<br /><br />Good for you for keeping her memory alive.Maria Zanninihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01604862636922299273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874057019281315576.post-20729935286304776142012-01-06T22:18:22.459-05:002012-01-06T22:18:22.459-05:00Lydia - I'm guessing you mean the groaner.

I always like to wait until the weekend after New Years, and since New Year's was on Sunday, it didn't come down that day.<br /><br />I always hated tinsel, though. It got on EVERYTHING, or so it seemed. Yeah, it makes the tree pretty, but I'm all about easy. Or is that lazy?
