Buck


That's the name Jason chose for our tree. According to Adam, my dear roommate in NYC, you have to name your tree so that you remember to water it. The year was 1996, and Adam's tree was named Evita.
So, here are the contenders:
Buck (from Jason)
The Spirit of Santa Clause (from Maxine)
Timmy Carlton (also from Maxine)
Personally I'm leaning toward Timmy the Tree, but to be honest I haven't called it by name when I remember to water it. So you still have time to enter suggestions, I'll be taking them up until December 24.


My favorite ornament, little round frog hiding in his lit pine cave. (There's a haiku there, I'm sure.)


Our lovely tree.


Ivan doesn't grab and pull it down, but gingerly touches with his fingers.

Just ask my kids what I would name it, and they'll tell you. It's what I would name anything.

OK, "pinesipher" totally cracks me up. Treebert Pinesipher.

Yes, it was Pancakes. It's always Pancakes.

But Treebert Pinesipher is pretty sweet.
