Charlie Brown has been complaining about that since 1965.

When I visited you last time, I saw few X-trees in your neighborhood, stay natural, no need for aluminium type, eh

Never had an aluminum tree, but did use other artificial types. Now only use natural trees, and that in itself creates other issues different from the artificial choice. :-/

I actually use a pre-lit artificial tree. Go tired of messing with the lights as I got older.
In the 60s my neighbors had an aluminum tree. It had a light with a motor driven color wheel that would slowly rotate and shine 4 (I think) different colors on the tree. Was nice, but I didn’t care for it at the time. I guess it was mid century modern and my family was pretty conservative on these things.

I kinda like the embedded LED artificial tree. Sadly, however, I see some already at curb-side trash. That is just wrong.

Fried turkeys are good if done right. I still prefer an oven baked bird.
Do a fried turkey wrong, and you can burn down the neighborhood lol

I fry turkeys every thanksgiving. Learned about it in New Orleans, brought it with us back to Memphis. First year told my friends they could bring their turkeys by and I would fry them for them. Ended up cooking 9 turkeys. This year cooked 3 breasts , l have the system down pat after 28 years. My wife’s cousin is a food writer for the Baltimore Sun, he wrote a book and included us in a chapter about his Memphis cousins frying turkeys.
