When it comes to decking the halls for the winter holiday season, we not only bring out the boughs of holly — whatever those are. We also often bring out the tropical plants, making it more appropriate to celebrate “Mele Kalikimaka.” I digress, but hopefully you get my point that the majority of plants we use to decorate during the winter holidays often come from tropical locations.

Friends of the Welsh Museum recently held their annual Taste and Sell fundraiser to help raise money for muchneeded repairs to the museum and its properties. Residents from throughout the parish attended the event and had a night filled with good food and even better company, all in the name of a good cause.
