Frohen Nikolaustag!

Happy St. Nikolaus' Day! This is the day that kids get candy and toys in their shoes. That's the important part. The bad kids get twigs, though, as a warning to be good or they'll get nothing for Christmas. Sometimes they put in a wish list for Christmas too.



I'm celebrating today by lighting the first two candles on my Adventkranz (Advent wreath). I missed lighting the first one on the first Advent because I didn't want...to pay for it. After the first Advent my Adventkranz was only 5 Euros as opposed to 12. Score. I supposed that means I get think about Hope (candle one) and Love (candle two) on one day!

I'm also going to a Christmas concert with people from work. Should be fun.

I'll also be enjoying opening all of my Advent calendars. One with quotes from the Bible thanks to an Aunt (I'm not Christian, but I appreciate the advice), one with Chocolate thanks to a co-worker and one with tea thanks to the Sagerts. Am I ever a lucky duck.
