Yesterday morning I got the itch to decorate something. I considered our poor scrawny basil plant --it has the right Charlie Brown spirit, after all--but I'm not entirely confident in its structural integrity. Then I remembered the monster rosemary bush out back. I cut a few branches, stuck them in a champagne bucket, and voila: a holiday tradition was born. Compact, no-hassle, and totally eco-friendly.

Happy holidays to everyone who celebrates anything!
