We would go for midnight mass, and when we come back, he would tell me and my brother to wait outside while he checks if Santa is still inside (AKA, he is leaving the gifts under the tree) then he would quickly have a sip of wine and come outside and tell us, oh Santa Claus has left gifts and had a glass of wine too hahhahahhahah and we as kids believed him. Mind you he was the Santa!!! hah hahaha, he did not want milk and cookies, he wanted wine!!! To be honest as a child my father used to leave a bottle of wine outside for Santa. ![]() Until today this tradition is carried out, whether it is with a good heart or as bribery to receive gifts, children would happily enjoy this activity. So basically it is said that during the great depression in America in 1930 parents tried to teach their kids the importance of kindness and sharing and that they are lucky to receive gifts for Christmas and in return for the cookies and milk, Santa would stop by and leave gifts. Have you seen on television or even magazines and storybooks, that you leave a plate of cookies and a glass of milk for Santa? it is actually a fun way to get your kids involved to make cookies and leave for Santa, isn’t it? I will hopefully next year give a few other varieties of cookie recipes. There is a variety of Christmas cookies, the one I am about to give you is called sugar cookies.
