I got to thinking about tomorrow night's class and wondered if it was planned to be on Saint Nick day. what a perfect plan.

For those of you who don't know the story of Saint Nick Day, here is a little bit of the tale.

Nicholas was an orfan and decided to follow the teachings of his church and give all he had away. He died on December 6th. That became his feast day and people celebrated his giving life on that day. Most stories of his sharing were told after his death. But it is known that this man did walk the countryside and give what he had to the poor. He was a protector of children.

we celebrate his life by putting small treats in the shoes of children. And as far as I can tell we are all children on December 6th.

So come and make a candy wreathe with us tomorrow and enjoy St. Nick day.
Henrietta
