   @evan Qualified no. My family is multicultural, and parents and my in-laws do Christmas trees. We don’t in my house, because I’m Jewish, and while my husband is a culturally Christian atheist, we have five cats. So like, I participate in tree related activities (decorating, making ornaments, etc) with family sometimes, but it’s not my thing.

     @BathysphereHat maybe your household would be into the Caga Tió tradition instead?

     @BathysphereHat it's kind of interesting that European tree magic was not incorporated at all into Hanukkah traditions down through the centuries.

     As a practitioner, I highly recommend it.

     @evan @BathysphereHat The family friends I did a festive holiday dinner with this weekend had one of those under the tree. Had never really seen one or heard of it before. I was a strong no to this poll but I do celebrate New England tree magic this time of year by standing out in the woods when it snows.
