...or how to get rid of your Christmas tree in Sweden.
1) Wait for an empty parking spot below your window (the higher up your apartment is the more important this is, don't want to hit a car)
2) Send the kids outside to make sure no one walks by and gets hit by the tree
3) Open the window and toss the Christmas tree out (stump first works best)... Why? If we took the tree out the conventional way (stairs/door) we would have a mess of needles to clean up in the hall/stairway... besides it's more fun to throw it out the window!
4) Drag the tree to the nearest pile of trees waiting to be mulched or whatever it is they do with them

as far as we know little gnomes drag the tree off... it's always gone in the morning |
