Happy St. Nicholas Day

Dear users and authors,
I hope you have lovely St. Nicholas boots filled with colorful treats.
Have a wonderful time.

Wishing everyone a wonderful St. Nicholas Day, and I have a little poem for you:

Christmas Kitchen 

Through the Christmas kitchen
all kinds of aromas drift.
Almonds, nuts, and currants
we then find in the cookies.
 
Vanilla, apples, marzipan,
chocolate joins in too.
Tasty cookies, colorful sprinkles,
gingerbread, brown and white.
 
But with all these tasty treats
the stomach has nothing to laugh about.
From all the tasting,
nibbling a bit here and there,
 
our stomach then turns sour,
and then we have to suffer.
Will we learn from our mistakes?
There are never enough cookies.
 
Next year, at the same time,
it will be time once again:
Through the Christmas kitchen
all kinds of aromas drift…

@ Josefa
Have a nice St. Nicholas Day too, and take good care of yourself :)

@Marlies
Thanks for this lovely poem — yes, it comes around every year. I love those smells and all the delicious treats to munch on.

@Everyone
Wishing everyone a lovely St. Nicholas Day and a relaxing Advent season.

I’ve already treated myself really well with a delicious breakfast in town, followed by a stroll through the Christmas market and shopping for a few little things (of course, yarn was among them too) ;)

Best, Petra

What a beautiful poem, Marion :-)
Happy St. Nicholas Day to everyone!

I wish all of you, including Josefa and the team, a boot stuffed to the brim this evening!


Lots of joy and cozy hours!
