Useless quote for 24 Dec:

"The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below,
When what to my wondering eyes did appear,
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny rein-deer,
With a little old driver so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment he must be St. Nick."

~ Clement Clarke Moore, "A Visit from Saint Nicholas" 1823, authorship claimed by Clement Clarke Moore in 1837

Sarcophagus of ‘real Santa Claus’ found at St. Nicholas Church in Turkey Recent excavations at the Church of St. Nicholas in Demre, Antalya, Turkey, have revealed a limestone sarcophagus that may be the burial site of Saint Nicholas, the Greek bishop whose life and deeds inspired the legend of Santa Claus. The sarcophagus, found within the church’s two-story annex, is believed to be the original burial site of Saint Nicholas, who lived in the ancient city of Myra during the 4th century CE. Measuring approximately two meters in length and buried at a depth of 1.5 to 2 meters, the sarcophagus features a raised lid and a pitched roof consistent with burial styles of the region. Its proximity to the church—constructed in the 5th century CE by order of Byzantine Emperor Theodosius II—adds credibility to the theory that this was the saint’s original resting place.

Yesterday my family celebrated Sinterklaas and for the first time I attempted to make "taaitaai", a traditional pastry associated with this holiday (taai means chewy). I have never heard of anyone making it themselves, but I do kind of understand why now😂 The dough was very tough to work with, but although they don't look the prettiest the taste is quite good!

A bunch of oval-shaped cookies on a baking tray. Their shapes are quite uneven.
