St. Nicholas Day

No not Christmas, St. Nicholas Day is when he comes to the homes of children's houses and puts candy, fruit, nuts, and small gifts in their boots. Usually I get one gift from my parents and my Grandma gives us each a ornament from a series we have been collecting. Just in case anyone cares I have been collecting the "Snow Buddies" series by hallmark for twelve years. It is a German holiday, and not a lot of people celebrate it. It occurs on the 6th of December. I mention it to people and they don't know what I'm talking about at all. So I thought I should tell you?
