DiscerningCatholic Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 We always get gold-foil-wrapped chocolate coins and pajamas. :) I got a super-comfy night gown this year. I hope they let me take it to the convent. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuturePriest Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 The shoes thing? Any of this. I have never heard of people celebrating Saint Nicholas Day or doing any of this stuff before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleWaySoul Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 Any of this. I have never heard of people celebrating Saint Nicholas Day or doing any of this stuff before. Wow. My family has always done it. I think it's a German tradition, perhaps? I'm not sure. I just know that I've done it ever since I can remember :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r2Dtoo Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Any of this. I have never heard of people celebrating Saint Nicholas Day or doing any of this stuff before. I think it's a popular tradition with the Dutch or something. I didn't know any Americans did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byzantine Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Wow. My family has always done it. I think it's a German tradition, perhaps? I'm not sure. I just know that I've done it ever since I can remember :) Also Rusyn tradition. We love St. Nicholas and actually make a huge deal out of it. And yes, I will attempt to get the St. Nicholas costume next year. http://vimeo.com/8597029 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
