What a surprise this morning. I went downstairs and saw my shoes full of candy
and gifts. Looks like
St. Nicholas stopped by and left me some treats! At least I didn't get twigs in my shoes this year. You see, on the eve of December 6
th, St. Nicholas goes from house to house carrying a book of sins in which all of the misdeeds of children (or adults in my case) are written. If they have been good, St.
Nic fills their shoes with sweet treats. If they've been bad, he leaves nothing but a bunch of twigs in their shoes. See... being good all year really pays off!
Vielen dank
Sankt Nic fur die
sussigkeiten!!!

St. Nikolas was Russian, not German.
Dang, I wouldn't eat anything that was residing in those boats !
St. Nikolas is actually Turkish.
Turkish? What? Next thing you'll tell me is all the Czars were Turkish...C'mon. Who is this "anonymous" poster? Inquiring minds want to know. Could it be Mr. Turkey, Brian Ben?
St. Nicklas´ Day
In Germany, the 6th of December is St. Nicklas´ Day (Nikolaustag). The saint brings small gifts to children, who have been good throughout the year. Bad kids get a strap (usually a small bundle of twigs, also sold with bits of candy). The candy is put into polished boots or commercial plastic ones, which kids put in front of their bedroom doors. It is also common for co-workers to distribute candy on that day.
Brian got some coal and twigs in his shoes.
St. Nikolaus war Deutsch. Warum kommst du nicht alle aufhören, diesen Beitrag Grobheiten?
