For the previous three Christmas seasons, I have celebrated with this off-the-wall song by Sweden’s Envelopes. I am late with it, but why stop a tradition? The droopy little pink tree above was snapped at Big Lots.

I hope everyone is enjoying the day doing whatever you like to do. We are celebrating by roasting vegetables everyone hates! Next week: My favorite songs and albums of 2009, and Uncle T’s Top 10 Albums.
