Pining Away At The Holidays

Are pine needles giving you a bigger headache than holiday eggnog?  To prevent needles from spreading when you take down the Christmas tree, place a plastic tree bag underneath the tree stand before you begin decorating.  Cover with a tree skirt, and when the holidays end, just remove the ornaments and stand, pull up the bag and toss the whole thing outside.  No mess…and no leftover needles in June.
