Saint Nicolas / Saint Nicholas

Depuis sa plus tendre enfance, chaque 6 décembre, Ben savoure les friandises "surprise" de la Saint Nicolas. Quoique loin du noyau familial, la tradition n'a pas fait défaut... moyennant quelques adaptations. Ne pouvant attendre la saison des pommes, nous avons eu droit à "des mangues et des raisins... Saint Nicolas c'est mon cousin".

Since early childhood, every year on December 6th, Ben delights in "surprise" goodies of all sorts for Saint Nicholas. Even if we are far from his family, the tradition lives on... Back home, Sylviane would prepare a plate for each one of us, filled with sweets, chocolate, raisins, apples, nuts etc. Apples and raisins are a requirement. But unable to wait for apple season, we had a mango each along with raisins, prunes, peanuts, chocolate, etc. Yummy!!
