Welcome to our series sharing Unique Holidays: December 19th, 2021. Today is Look for an Evergreen Day and if we hadn’t already purchased our Christmas Tree for the year then yes, I would look for an Evergreen today. How about you?
Look for an Evergreen Day– always December 19th.
To many people, only a fresh cut real Tree will do for Christmas. The scent of fresh Pine helps to capture the feel of the Holidays. Nothing looks more real than a real Tree, each one with its own character and appearance. As well as making our homes smell so good.
There is no shortage of types of Christmas trees. These Trees are classified as Firs, Spruces, and Pines. The most popular varieties have changed over the years. Personal preference like your preference for short needle or long needle trees, will help you to decide which variety of tree to select.
As we researched this Holiday, we questioned the timing. Chances are, you bought your live Christmas Tree already. Years ago, people purchased live Christmas Trees late in the Season. That’s probably why December 19th was declared “Look for an Evergreen Day”.
If you are still Treeless, this Holiday could be the day to find the perfect Christmas Tree.
Christmas Tree Sunday– Many people traditionally call the first or the second Sunday in December as “Christmas Tree Sunday”. This seems to be an informal term. On the first or second Sunday of the month, when the Weather is warm and dry, you see many cars headed home with a Christmas Tree. People and the News Media will informally declare it to be “Christmas Tree Sunday”.
Before you go: Brush up on how to select and care for the perfect Christmas Tree. Or check out Types and Varieties of Christmas Trees.
Oatmeal Muffin Day– always on December 19th.
Oatmeal Muffin Day is today and you should enjoy the Cholesterol lowering benefit of Oatmeal in your Muffins today. This is great news eating something that tastes good and is also healthy.
This Holiday is not steeped in tradition. To the contrary, we have found no information about this Holiday. But, it is clear to us, eating Oatmeal Muffins will fulfill the objective of this Holiday. Of course, baking the Muffins yourself, adds to the enjoyment of this Holiday.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
