I was on another posting site, whereas the focus of the discussion was on St. Nicholas Day supposedly celebrated on Dec. 6. The post was making the point it was celebrated in the United States..Not where I come from! and in fact this is the first I ever heard of it..Do you or do you know anyone who celebrates St. Nicholas Day? I am not talking about Christmas Eve.

@snowy22315 My Mom's Mom probably made them strudel or some other treat at that time, too.

Not in Texas that I know about. I was wondering if you were talking about Santa, until I read the last sentence.

Never heard of it until now. I heard the 6th be referred to as Little Christmas.
