The First Christmas

I am not sure if you know about it, but the first Christmas ornaments were mostly nuts and apples. I know that it might be difficult to imagine this once you have Glass Christmas Tree Toppers at home, but in the past, all people had were simple fruits such as apples. I am so happy that these days I am free to put a German Pickle on my Christmas tree knowing that it always looks good. Another German tradition that started spreading quickly was hanging various baked products on Christmas trees. Well, I still prefer my Ornament Stands the way they are today, but I definitely appreciate the creativity of the Germans in trying to do their best.
