Once again, it’s time for MrsT’s quizzes to branch out and spread their roots, and this round... you’ve guessed it, its trees! They help regulate our climate and provide food and shelter for a whole host of animals as well as providing us with a variety of resources, we might otherwise take for granted. Let’s face it, what wood (pun intended) the world be without trees? They come in all shapes and sizes, as do the leaves and fruit that they bare and yes, I was one of those kids who loved the school trip to Westonbirt Arboretum. For the next 12 weeks, I will leaf you with a clue or two about trees for you to mulch over.EnjoyMYSTERY TREE QUIZ #4Clue: Back from Hades.
I think that clinches it for Aspen. Apparently, extracts from Aspen are used to treat fear and anxiety.

Actually I was trying to calm all those lost in the woods...
So we'll all be OK if we go chew on an Aspen then TJ?
Will it get us safely through Christmas?
Even maybe help with Tesco shopping, aarrghh, possibly need some much stronger meds to take that pain away!!!

a good laugh is better than a tonic
Wot you after BL....a Scottie?
I am even more convinced now that aspen is the right solution. There is a proverb in Germany: "Zittern wie Espenlaub". It means that someone, who is afraid of something or highly nervous usually starts trembling like the leaves of aspen-trees. So keep calm everyone, and stop trembling, there is no need for Panic.
Yours, Bente

In our home that would maybe require a high % of alcohol !!

Unfortunately don't do alcohol S so will have to stick with the Asp(er)en!!
Looks like Aspen is the best bet on this one.
