Today I went to Safeway after work.  This was quite unusual for me - because with the location of my apartment this year Safeway is no longer within walking distance.  So today I took a detour after work to go shopping at Safeway.  I made two exciting purchases:
1) I bought two haagen daaz!  Yes two!  That was because they were on sale 2 for $9.50.  I bought one tub of Baileys and one of Mango sorbet.  I was a little worried about the Bailey's, but I remember having it in Ireland and really liking it - so I bought some.  Turns out - I don't like it.  Not one little bit.  Well there's $5 I will never get back.  The Mango Sorbet however is lovely.  
Luckily purchase number two was more successful.
2) I bought a potted mini-pine tree for $7.  It is fabulous.  It is too small to hang any ornaments on - instead it is currently on the top of my bookcase (although I may move it), next to my (sadly) small collection of Christmas cards.  It's all very festive.  And the mini-pine smells like pine which is lovely and it has a festive red ribbon tied to the top so I am now most definetly, slowly, starting to get into the Christmas spirit!

I'm curious as to what kind of smell the mini-pine would have other than pine?
I know that you will be able to add to your Christmas card collection. We too have a small selection so far.
