I blogged about <a href="http://amalaysianabroad.today.com/2008/12/08/christmas-comes-early-december-6th/">December 6th / Samichlaus</a> recently, and this excellent little article of yours helped remind me of what Samichlaus hands out to the good kids - it's been so long since I've marked this day, my memory had gone totally blank! Thanks for the mind-nudge :) Have a great end-of-the-year, and a good 2009! *lynne* Hi!

To me, the most interesting character is Schmutzli - because he seems so unique to this tradition. Thanks for the great site – and information about St. Nicholas day!
