   Are those shoes set out for St. Nickolas’ Day?

   Leaving goodies in shoes — even weirder than in stockings (hung by the chimney with care). lt’s a tradition I’d never heard of, but Milady’s family (Catholic, Chicago) always did. So, we started when our kids were little.

   Now the kids are all moved out. But MJ & I carry on for each other. Out-of-town son gifted his then-girlfriend (now the parents of our grandson I just have to mention 🙂 ) last year. Can’t be sure, but seem to remember daughter gifted other son last year (both live in the same apartment building).

   Silly, but memorable tradition. (Sings with Yiddish accent: Tradition!)

   Or maybe you have no idea what I’m talking about? 😉

   The year MJ was pregnant with the twin boys, our Christmas Card was a pic of flip-flops – mine, hers, daughter’s, and two tiny decorative pair (like, keyring or rear view mirror dangly size).

     Awww! Re: the photo. Mama Buzz laid out the shoes in preparation for their visit to the photo studio. 🙂
