Saint Nicholas Day

As a little girl, the night of December 5 deserved as much careful planning at Christmas Eve. I would write up my wish list for Santa Claus and carefully pick out two of my favorite cookies to leave on a plate with a small glass of milk. I always made sure to include a few carrots for the reindeer too (I think I must have thought of the carrots as the loaves of bread Jesus used to feed the multitude, because there’s no way the carrots I left out would have fed a all nine reindeer).
